Based in Newfoundland, our tight-knit, collaborative team takes tech straight out of the lab and deploys it live in real world environments.

When you join us, your contributions make a direct, visible impact every single day.

THE OPPORTUNITY

Are you ready to kickstart your career in industrial automation? We’re looking for a hands-on Instrumentation Controls Technician to help assemble, deploy, and maintain the hardware and machine vision tech driving our solutions. Split your time between hands-on assembly and testing in our Mount Pearl lab and deploying systems on-site at active client processing facilities.

If you have a robust background in electrical, mechanical, or industrial trades and a passion for technology, we will train you on the rest! You don't need to be an expert in PLCs or machine vision on day one—just bring your problem-solving skills, comfort with tools and wiring, and an eager drive to learn.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

- Build & Test: Assemble, wire, and test advanced automation and machine vision hardware in our Mount Pearl lab prior to deployment.
- Deploy On-Site:



Travel to client seafood and poultry processing plants to install, commission, and start up state-of-the-art equipment.
- Troubleshoot & Service: Provide hands-on field support, diagnosing and repairing sensors, cameras, wiring, control panels, and mechanical components.
- Work with Technical Schematics: Collaborate closely with engineering teams to read and follow electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and equipment blueprints.
- Grow Automation Skills: Perform entry-level PLC and control-system work under the mentorship of senior engineers and technicians.
- Maintain High Performance: Calibrate and maintain sensors, cameras, lighting units, and optical system components for optimal accuracy.
- Document Service Activity: Keep precise records of installation work, preventative maintenance, and follow-up technical tasks.
- Maintain Safety Standards: Strictly adhere to food safety protocols (GMP, sanitation, WHMIS) and facility safety standards while on site.
- Communicate Effectively: Maintain clear communication with client plant personnel and internal team members on operational status.

WHAT YOU'LL NEED

- A natural aptitude and passion for learning automation, controls, and machine vision systems.
- A solid foundation in electrical, mechanical, instrumentation, or industrial trades (diploma/certificate, active apprenticeship, or hands-on experience).




- Hands-on experience with hand/power tools and basic schematic reading ability.
- Strong analytical and methodical troubleshooting skills.
- A valid driver's license and readiness to travel regularly to customer facilities.
- Comfort working in food production plant environments (wet floors, cold conditions, required PPE).
- Physical mobility to lift, bend, stand, and climb while servicing equipment.
- Excellent interpersonal skills with a strong, team-oriented team mindset.

BONUS QUALIFICATIONS

- Prior exposure to PLC platforms (Schneider, Allen-Bradley, Siemens, etc.).
- Experience working within food processing or seafood industrial settings.
- Active First Aid / WHMIS certifications.
- Red Seal apprenticeship credits (Industrial Electrician, Instrumentation & Control Technician, etc.).

WHAT WE OFFER

- Direct Mentorship & Growth: Direct 1-on-1 mentorship from experienced engineers to accelerate your career into control systems and automation.
- Flexible Work Options: Hybrid work structure balanced between lab assembly, field deployment, and flexible tasks.
- Total Rewards: Competitive overall compensation package along with comprehensive medical and health benefits.
