Generator Field Service Technician - Campbell River, BC

A Solid Career Move for Experienced Mechanics 

If you’re a Mechanic, Heavy Equipment/Diesel Tech, Marine or Avionics Tech, or similarly skilled, looking to level up your career, this role gives you the chance to apply your mechanical know-how to a specialized, in-demand field.

This is steady, year-round work with a Canadian company that’s been powering critical operations for over 60 years. Hospitals, industrial sites, data centres, emergency services—you’ll be the one keeping their generators running when it matters most.

Bring your mechanical skills. 

We’ll give you the training, the truck, and a trade you can build a long career in.

Wage: $35–$45+/hour (DOE)

Why This Role Stands Out:

• Your mechanical background transfers directly—diesel engines, troubleshooting, electrical basics
• You’ll gain generator-specific training from experts
• Stable, long-term career path with steady work year-round
• Field role with independence and autonomy—company vehicle included
• Work on serious equipment: from 8 kW units to 2–3 MW generators

What You Get:

• Company vehicle
• Extended health & dental benefits
• Employer RRSP matching
• Health/wellness spending account
• Paid vacation + personal days
• Ongoing paid training & certifications

What You Bring to the Crew:

• Solid mechanical background (especially diesel—big win)
• Experience as an auto tech, diesel/heavy-equipment tech, marine mechanic, industrial mechanic, or similar
• Ability to troubleshoot mechanical, engine, and electrical issues
• Working knowledge of A/C and D/C electrical systems
• Field service or customer-facing experience is a big plus
• Strong communication, reliability, and pride in workmanship
• ASTT certification is great; willingness to get it works too

Your Day-to-Day:

• Maintenance, repairs, and troubleshooting on commercial and institutional generators
• Diagnosing issues on diesel & natural-gas gensets
• Testing and verifying electrical components
• Writing up service reports—clear, accurate, professional
• Working directly with customers, representing the company on-site
• Pitching in with other service work when needed
