With one of the most diverse fleets in the industry including the Avro RJ jet aircraft, as well as the ATR, Dash 8, and Dornier 228, we operate in some of the most demanding environments in the world.

Working at Summit Air means more than maintaining aircraft. You’ll join a close-knit team focused on safety, quality, and getting the job done, while living and working in one of Canada’s most unique northern communities.

Interested? Join our team in Yellowknife by applying today!

The Opportunity

As a licensed M1/M2 AME with one or more years of experience on large aircraft, you're ready for a role that gives you real autonomy, a diverse fleet to work on, and colleagues who take safety as seriously as you do.

This role is intended to be resident-based. In some cases, rotational schedules may be considered depending on operational needs and business requirements. For employees on rotation, Summit will provide all flights, accommodation, and per diem.

What you'll do

Perform scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, inspections, and repairs on fleet aircraft in accordance with Transport Canada standards of airworthiness and company procedures.
Sign maintenance releases and accept responsibility for work performed, in accordance with your licence privileges.
Troubleshoot aircraft systems and diagnose complex defects, applying sound judgement and technical skill.
Ensure all replacement parts are inspected and properly certified prior to installation.
Maintain accurate and thorough maintenance records, defect reports, and technical logs.
Participate in Summit Air's Safety Management System (SMS) and Quality Assurance programs.
Mentor apprentice AMEs and junior technicians where applicable.
Maintain a clean, organised, and safe work environment in the hangar and on the line.
Support the Maintenance Controller in planning and scheduling maintenance activities.

Qualifications

Required

Valid Transport Canada M1 and/or M2 AME licence.
Minimum one year of experience working on large, multi-engine aircraft.
Strong working knowledge of aircraft systems, including airframes, powerplants, hydraulics, pneumatics, electrical, and environmental systems.
Ability to read, interpret, and work from maintenance manuals, airworthiness directives, and technical documentation.
Demonstrated commitment to safety, quality, and regulatory compliance.
Self-motivated, with the ability to work independently and as part of a team in a remote or rotational environment.
Valid driver's licence.

Preferred

Experience on multi-engine aircraft types, particularly the Avro RJ, ATR, Dash 8 (DHC-8), or Dornier 228 (D228)
Canadian Armed Forces aviation technician (or equivalent) background, military-equivalent credentials are welcomed and will be considered.
Experience working in northern, remote, or rotational aviation environments.
Corrosion control experience and knowledge.

Compensation & benefits

We offer a competitive total compensation package, including:

Competitive base salary (commensurate with experience and licence category discuss details with our team during the interview process).
Benefit from annual profit-sharing bonuses aligned with individual and organizational success, with additional merit-based salary growth.
Rating premiums and shift premiums where applicable.
Comprehensive benefits from date of hire - extended health, dental, vision, prescription drugs, life insurance, and short- and long-term disability.
RRSP/pension matching program.
Paid travel, accommodation, and per diem for all rotational employees fully company-funded.
Uniform, outerwear, and required PPE provided.
Type training and ongoing endorsement opportunities
Northern Living/Travel Allowance for resident-based employees

Career Development & Training

At Summit Air, we’re committed to investing in our people. We actively support our AMEs in gaining new endorsements and advancing their careers. You'll have access to:

Type training on new aircraft types as they are introduced to the fleet.
Internal mentorship and knowledge-sharing from experienced engineers.
A genuine pathway to Crew Chief and supervisory roles for high performers.
A safety culture that treats every team member's input as valuable.

What Will Your first 90 days Look Like?

Week 1–2: Structured onboarding at our Yellowknife base, including SMS orientation, base familiarisation, fleet introduction, and introductions to the maintenance and operations teams.
Weeks 3–6: Supervised line familiarisation on Summit Air's aircraft types, with mentorship from a senior AME.
By 90 days: Full integration into the maintenance schedule, with autonomy appropriate to your licence and experience.

Witness the Northern Lights from your doorstep, with some of the best aurora viewing in the world.
