  • Complete operational records and regulatory reporting requirements
  • Monitor and respond to SCADA alarms and notifications
  • Participate in on-call coverage and emergency response activities
  • Provide mentorship and technical support to junior operators

  • Strong mechanical and troubleshooting aptitude
  • Excellent communication and organizational skills
  • Ability to work independently across a large geographic region while maintaining communication with operations leadership and site staff

  • Valid Ontario Drinking Water Operator Certification (OIT, LSW, Level I, or higher). LSW and OIT licences are acceptable for the water systems currently operated under this role. Aquatech places significant value on demonstrated operational experience in both water and wastewater systems.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience operating private communal water and wastewater systems
  • SCADA and remote monitoring experience
  • Experience supporting multiple sites across a large geographic territory
