Senior Field Service Technician
Location: Fergus, Ontario, CA
Compensation: $35-$40/hour + overtime

About the Role

A growing power generation service organization is seeking a Senior Field Service Technician to support customers across Southern Ontario. This is a hands-on, field-based role for a technician who thrives in high-responsibility environments, can confidently lead in the field, and takes pride in delivering high-quality work.

We are looking for someone who is not just seeking a job, but a long-term career—someone who values being part of a team, contributing to the success of the business, and continuously developing their technical and leadership skills.

Key Responsibilities

  • Troubleshoot, diagnose, and repair complex mechanical and electrical issues on power generation equipment
  • Perform full engine overhauls independently on large engine systems
  • Conduct advanced electrical troubleshooting on:
    • 24V DC systems
    • AC systems up to 600V
  • Lead field service jobs with confidence, making sound decisions under pressure without overreacting
  • Support and guide junior technicians when required
  • Complete service work at customer sites across Southern Ontario
  • Communicate professionally with customers and represent the company in the field
  • Maintain accurate service documentation and reports
  • Participate in an on-call rotation after onboarding

Requirements

  • 5+ years of hands-on technician experience in power generation, diesel, heavy equipment, or related fields
  • Proven ability to independently overhaul engines (not just assist)
  • Strong electrical troubleshooting experience in both DC (24V) and AC systems (up to 600V)
  • Demonstrated leadership ability — capable of taking charge of situations calmly and effectively
  • Strong problem-solving mindset and ability to work independently in the field
  • Must own personal tools
  • Valid driver’s license with a clean driving record
  • Willingness to travel daily and stay overnight as needed

What We’re Looking For

  • A technician who wants to build a career, not just earn a paycheck
  • Someone who takes pride in their work, their equipment, and how they present themselves professionally
  • A team-oriented individual who values long-term growth and contributing to a strong company culture
  • A motivated self-starter who asks thoughtful questions about the work, the company, and how they can add value

Schedule and Travel

  • Field-based role covering Southern Ontario
  • Technicians dispatch directly from home to job sites
  • Overnight travel required, typically up to 3 nights per month
  • Limited weekend work
  • On-call rotation participation after training

Compensation and Benefits

  • Paid travel time
  • Company vehicle
  • Company phone
  • $500 annual tool allowance
  • Comprehensive benefits package

This is an opportunity to join a team that values technical excellence, accountability, and long-term career growth.
