We are recruiting for a Shop Technician to join a growing, safety-focused equipment rental and material handling operation in Hamilton, ON. This role is ideal for a mechanically strong technician who enjoys troubleshooting, working through complex repairs, and being part of a collaborative team environment. This is not a parts-changer role. The right technician is confident, detail-oriented, and patient when diagnosing issues — someone who takes pride in fixing things properly and safely, even when repairs don’t go perfectly the first time.
Location: Hamilton, Ontario
Pay: $35–$45/hour (flexible based on experience, with review after 90 days) + benefits
Schedule: Monday–Friday, 7:00am–5:00pm
Hours: ~47.5 hours/week, OT paid after 44 hours
Employment Type: Full-Time, Permanent
What You’ll Be Working On
- Aerial lift equipment (JLG, Genie, Skyjack)
- Forklifts
- Modern, well-maintained commercial rental equipment (no old residential units)
Key Responsibilities
- Diagnose and repair hydraulic, electrical, and mechanical issues in shop-based equipment
- Perform complex troubleshooting and major repairs (“hard down” equipment)
- Read and interpret schematics, hydraulic diagrams, and service manuals
- Complete preventative maintenance and safety inspections
- Work closely with other technicians and leadership to prioritize repairs
- Maintain accurate service documentation
- Follow safe work practices in a fast-paced rental environment
What We’re Looking For
-
Strong troubleshooting ability in hydraulics and electrical systems
- Experience with aerial equipment, forklifts, or heavy equipment (rental experience is an asset)
- Comfortable asking for help when needed — no ego, team-first mindset
- Positive attitude, steady under pressure, solutions-focused
- Ability to work efficiently without cutting corners
Why This Role Stands Out
- Modern fleet with commercial clients (no outdated equipment)
- Company values attitude, teamwork, and long-term growth
-
Fast-paced but safety-focused environment
- Pay flexibility for the right technician
Benefits
- Extended health benefits
- RRSP matching
- Stable, full-time hours
- Long-term growth with a growing organization
