About the job

Phoenix Hydraulics Ltd. is hiring a Heavy-Duty Mechanic or Hydraulic Technician with hands-on experience in hydraulic repair. We rebuild hydraulic cylinders, pumps, and motors for heavy equipment and industrial customers. Our Burnaby shop also provides machining, cylinder manufacturing, and industrial hard chrome plating services.

You’ll take jobs from teardown and inspection through assembly and bench testing. We’re looking for someone who can identify why a component failed, document what needs to be repaired, and work with our machining team when a job requires parts to be restored or manufactured.

What you’ll do

- Disassemble, clean, inspect, and rebuild hydraulic cylinders, pumps, and motors.
- Diagnose issues such as internal leakage, contamination, scoring, and wear. Measure rods, bores, and other components using micrometers, bore gauges, and calipers.
- Identify seals, bearings, bushings, and other parts needed for repairs. Record measurements, photos, and findings for inspection reports and quotations.
- Work with machinists on rod and barrel repairs, replacement components, and parts that require hard chrome plating.




- Set up and safely operate hydraulic test equipment. Record test results and verify that completed units meet job specifications.
- Follow shop procedures for lifting, handling, and working safely around stored hydraulic pressure.

What you bring
- Hands-on experience repairing hydraulic components or troubleshooting hydraulic systems on heavy-duty equipment.
- Ability to read hydraulic schematics, service manuals, and technical drawings.
- Confidence using precision measuring tools and documenting inspection findings.
- Ability to work independently on repairs and communicate clearly with technicians, machinists, and shop staff.

A Heavy Duty Equipment Technician Red Seal or related trade certification is an asset. We also welcome experienced hydraulic technicians with a strong background in component repair and testing.
