• Travel to client sites across Western Canada (up to 75% travel).
• Maintain safety compliance with Transport Canada and Federal OHS regulations.
• Participate in training for skills development, safety, and career growth.

Minimum Requirements

• Completion of a post‑secondary technical college program; mechanical or electrical engineering, pipefitting, HVAC, or equivalent.
• Strong mechanical aptitude and comfort with hand tools.
• Ability to interpret basic diagrams and schematics (tanks, pumps, valves, etc.).
• Physically fit and comfortable working outdoors and on your feet.
• Excellent teamwork, communication, and problem‑solving skills.
• Comfortable using a computer or tablet for reporting.
• Valid driver’s license and clean driving record.
• Willing to travel extensively.
