Electrician

Join our field team as a skilled Electrician and help power wind turbines safely and effectively. Work on-site, troubleshoot systems, and make a real impact in renewable energy with FabricAir.

We are seeking a qualified Electrician with strong electrical capabilities and mechanical aptitude - someone who is passionate about their craft and committed to working safely and effectively in the field. This role involves on-site work at client windfarms on a rotating schedule (on-site / at-home). While on-site, accommodation and a daily per diem allowance for meals are provided.

You will be a great fit if you are highly organized, self-directed, and quick to take initiative when challenges — or opportunities — arise.

You’ll join a global company with more than 50 years of experience in delivering high-performance air distribution solutions, constantly pushing boundaries beyond what conventional ventilation systems can do.

Your impact and responsibilities

You will play a vital role in ensuring the seamless operation, maintenance, and performance of our BorealisWind Ice Protection Systems.

In this role, you will:

  • Climb wind turbine towers to install, inspect, maintain, and/or repair BorealisWind proprietary electrical systems
  • Test, troubleshoot, and repair electrical circuits, components, and systems - as well as mechanical and hydraulic systems when required
  • Read and interpret electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and technical documentation
  • Liaise with FabricAir's operations and engineering teams to resolve on-site issues
  • Document electrical issues and maintain resolution logs for future reference
  • Replace or repair faulty electrical components, wiring, and equipment
  • Contribute to non-conformance reports based on findings during maintenance and inspection
  • Diagnose new electrical non-conformances in collaboration with the Operations team
  • Perform preventive and corrective maintenance to ensure optimal Ice Protection System performance
  • Act as a point of contact to the site supervisor, ensuring ongoing, reliable communication of turbine status
  • Act safely and responsibly during all tasks on-site

Who you are

You’re someone who takes pride in doing things right the first time — organized, hands-on, and focused on the details that matter. You work well on your own, but you also know how to be a solid team player when the job calls for it.

You’re reliable, safety-minded, and don’t back away from a challenge. When something’s not working, you dig in, figure it out, and fix it. You’re not afraid to speak up, share ideas, or ask questions - because getting the job done right means staying connected with the people around you.

At FabricAir, you’ll play an important role in keeping our systems running smoothly and supporting our customers in the field. If you like having a clear purpose, working with your hands, and being part of something bigger, we think you’ll fit right in.

It’s an advantage if you have:

  • A valid Electrician license or equivalent combination of education and experience (Red Seal Certification is an asset)
  • Experience working in industrial or renewable energy environments (wind industry experience is a plus)
  • Strong knowledge of electrical systems, including low and medium voltage systems and control panels
  • Familiarity with mechanical and hydraulic systems
  • Demonstrated results/experience in Health & Safety, customer service, and technical troubleshooting
  • Ability to ascend to heights up to 250 feet or greater, work in confined spaces, discern colours, and meet bodyweight restrictions of 260 pounds
  • Capacity to anticipate and mitigate potential electrical issues in the field
  • Willingness to work rotating shifts (e.g. 3 weeks on / 2 weeks off)

Together with the team, you will play a crucial role in shaping our cutting-edge projects and driving the company's path forward. You will be met with responsibility, trust, and flexibility. Alongside a collaborative and supportive team of professionals, you will be able to further develop your talents and experience, facing interesting challenges and opportunities in a global company.
