Job description

Overview

As members of the military, Air Drop Systems Technicians are the Canadian Forces go-to experts on a wide range of parachute systems and parachute-related equipment. They play a pivotal role in supporting airborne operations for Infantry Parachute Companies, Air Force Aerial Delivery Sections, Special Operations, and Search and Rescue.

As an Air Drop Systems Technician, your responsibilities are as diverse as they are crucial. You will be the one ensuring the safety of our personnel by meticulously packing and repairing parachutes and related airborne equipment. You will provide invaluable technical guidance to commanders and staff, aiding in the planning and execution of airborne and airdrop operations. Your expertise will be crucial in ensuring the success of these missions.

Though you will primarily work in a warehouse environment, fine-tuning parachute systems and maintaining their peak performance, you won't be confined to these walls. You will even have the opportunity to experience the thrill of a parachute jump yourself, as part of your mandatory qualification requirement. The primary duties of an Air Drop Systems Technician are to :

  • Proficiently pack and maintain an extensive array of parachute systems, inclusive of extraction parachute systems, light, medium, and heavy cargo parachute systems, round / mass and square / precision personnel parachute systems.
  • Utilize advanced equipment integral to parachute operations, such as GPS-guided aerial delivery parachute systems.
  • Conduct thorough inspections and maintenance of diverse sewing machine systems employed in the upkeep of parachutes and parachute-related equipment.
  • Actively participate in the support of airborne operations.
  • Operate within a broad spectrum of parachute operations within the CAF, providing vital support to Infantry Parachute Battalions, Air Force Aerial Delivery Sections, Special Operations, and Search and Rescue.
  • Conduct in-depth investigations into Incident Malfunctions pertaining to parachute operations.
  • Supervise the packing and maintenance of all parachute systems and related airborne equipment.
  • Ensure the upkeep of your required parachuting qualifications.

To be eligible to apply to the CAF, you must :

  • Be a Canadian citizen or permanent resident living in Canada;
  • Be at least 18 years old (17 years old with parental consent), except :
  • For the Paid Education programs—you may be 16 years old (with parental consent);

  • For the Primary Reserves—you may be 16 years old (with parental consent) and must be enrolled as a full-time student;
  • Have completed at least Grade 10 or Secondaire IV in Québec (some jobs need higher levels of education).
  • Work Environment

    Air Drop Systems Technicians typically work indoors in a temperature regulated warehouse handling and maintaining a variety of diverse parachute systems. However, their role extends beyond the walls of the warehouse.

    As part of the dynamic airborne community of the CAF, you will often find yourself stepping into the field, mirroring real-world conditions for a truly immersive experience. Your duties are as divers as they are crucial. From submitting comprehensive reports on parachute data, drops, incidents, and investigations, to conducting serviceability checks and repairs on personnel and aerial delivery equipment, to strapping on a parachute system yourself and going for a jump, no two days will be the same. Air Drop Systems Technicians are involved in supporting parachuting activities and airborne operations throughout Canada and the world.

    If you chose a career in the Regular Force, upon completion of all required training, you will be assigned to your first base. While there is some flexibility with regards to postings (relocations), accommodations can’t always be made, and therefore, you can likely expect to move at some point in your career. However, if you decide to join the Primary Reserve Force, you will do so through a specific Reserve unit. Outside of training, your chosen Reserve unit will be your workplace on a part time basis, and you will not be obligated to relocate to a different base. As part of the Primary Reserve Force, you typically work one night per week and some weekends as a minimum with possibilities of full-time employment.

    Basic Military Qualification

    The first stage of training is the Basic Military Qualification course, or Basic Training, held at the Canadian Forces Leadership and Recruit School in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Québec, or through various training establishments across Canada from Esquimalt, British Columbia, to Halifax, Nova Scotia. This training provides the basic core skills and knowledge common to all trades. One main goal of this course is to ensure all recruits maintain the CAF physical fitness standard; as a result, the training is physically demanding but achievable.

  • Execution of both basic and advanced repairs and maintenance on parachute systems and associated Airborne equipment.
  • Completion of BASIC Parachutist training.
