Original job description

Controls & Field Service Technician (Intermediate)

EVS Automation Ltd. · Burnaby, BC · Full-time, permanent · Travel required (Canada and international)

Every wave machine, slide and water feature at the parks we work on runs on a control system. Someone has to program it, wire it, start it up and keep it running. We’re looking for a hands-on technician who wants to do all four, in our Burnaby shop and on project sites around the world.

About EVS Automation

EVS Automation is a Burnaby-based controls integrator for the waterpark and surf park industry. We build control panels, program PLC, HMI and SCADA systems, and commission and support them on site, with projects across Canada, the Middle East and Asia. We’re a small team, so your work is visible, and the equipment we control is used by thousands of guests every day.

The role

You’ll split your time between programming in the shop, building and testing panels, and commissioning systems on site, working directly with our lead engineer. In your first year, you’ll take at least one project from factory testing through to handover. You’ll also become a go-to person for troubleshooting our Siemens and ABB systems and help mentor our co-op students.

What to know up front: this job involves trips of 1 to 4 weeks, often to hot outdoor sites working toward an opening date, plus occasional after-hours remote support. If that sounds like a good adventure rather than a burden, read on.

What you’ll do

Program and troubleshoot PLCs, mainly Siemens TIA Portal (S7-1200/1500) with some Allen-Bradley, and build HMI screens and SCADA dashboards
Set up and tune VFDs (ABB ACS880 and others) for pumps, blowers and wave equipment
Build, wire and test control panels to drawings and CSA/UL standards, then run factory acceptance tests before they ship
Commission systems on client sites: I/O checkouts, loop checks, site acceptance tests and start-up
Diagnose electrical, controls and motor problems in the field, including pump and motor vibration
Train park operators and maintenance staff, and provide remote support after handover
Keep drawings, I/O lists and as-builts up to date, and help keep our parts stock organized

What we’re looking for

Required:

3+ years of experience in industrial controls, automation or electrical field service
A diploma in instrumentation, electrical or automation technology, a Red Seal (industrial electrician or instrumentation and control technician), or equivalent hands-on experience
Experience programming and troubleshooting PLCs on at least one major platform, such as Siemens or Allen-Bradley
Experience wiring or building control panels from electrical schematics
Experience setting up or troubleshooting VFDs and motor controls
Commissioning or service work on client sites
A valid passport and driver’s licence, and able to travel internationally for 1 to 3 weeks at a time

Nice to have:

Siemens TIA Portal experience
HMI/SCADA experience (WinCC, Ignition, FactoryTalk or similar)
Industrial networks: PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, Modbus
Experience training operators or end users on new equipment
Work on waterparks, amusement rides, pools, water treatment or marine systems
International commissioning, especially in the Middle East or Asia

How to apply

Apply through this posting using the Apply button. Include your resume and a short note about a controls project you’re proud of. We’ll review applications as they arrive and contact shortlisted candidates through the platform.

EVS Automation is an equal opportunity employer. We thank all applicants; only those selected for an interview will be contacted.
