• Maintain accurate service documentation and reports
• Participate in an on-call rotation after onboarding

• 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

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