Engineering Field Technician/Technologist
Aercoustics Engineering Ltd.,
1004 Middlegate Road, Suite 1100
Mississauga, L4Y 0G1
When you see a piece of equipment, you want to understand how it works and make sure it’s working its best. If something has happened, you want to break it down and put it back together even better, knowing you’ve helped the client and your team. You have the potential and/or experience to be a talented field technician and are looking for flexibility, full-time work, and a culture that you want to be part of.
We’re Aercoustics Engineering Ltd., and this is where you belong.
We’re an award-winning, national leader in consulting engineering services in the field of acoustics, noise and vibration. We work on varied and challenging projects, from noise reduction in transit systems, to world-class performance spaces for the Royal Conservatory of Music, to the research and development of tools that are changing our industry.
Now we’re looking for a talented individual to join us in the role of Field Technician and we are hoping our search ends with you.
Overview of Opportunity
This unique opportunity will appeal to a self-directed and technically minded individual wishing to be part of our high performing team. Your primary goal will be to coordinate, deploy and maintain field equipment, and participate in sound and vibration measurements throughout the company’s sectors, while interfacing with our engineering team and clients. Your sense of practicality and aptitude for hands-on work will be critical to navigating and solving site and equipment challenges on-the-fly. You will be involved in tasks such as coordination / deployment / maintenance of sound and vibration monitoring equipment & software, sound and vibration spot check measurements, and other supporting tasks. Curiosity and constant learning will be the keys to your professional growth and success in this role. While some time may be spent in an office setting, a significant portion of time will be spent in the field and at construction sites, as well as driving to different site locations to attend to equipment.
This is a full-time, permanent position. We have a bright, modern Mississauga office but with Covid, we have adapted and are hybrid with some days in the office and some remote. We try to accommodate a strong work-life balance at our company and as such hours are flexible within the requirements of the job. We focus more on your outcomes than the minutes you clock. You’ll be trusted to manage your time to maximize your impact and to also make yourself available for meetings and other internal events as needed.

The successful candidate will have excellent communication skills, an ability to learn and apply new theories and excellent teamwork skills. You are also curious but comfortable with the routine, while problem solving on-the-go. You should be comfortable within a flexible work schedule, including occasional nights and weekends. As well, you are willing and able to travel as projects dictate. While the majority of our project sites are in Ontario, there is potential for travel outside the province, and in some cases outside Canada.
