As an Aircraft Maintenance Engineer (AME), you will help ensure the safety, reliability, and readiness of our fleet through hands-on maintenance, inspections, troubleshooting, and repairs in a dynamic operational environment.

In this role, you’ll go beyond routine maintenance. You’ll be supporting time-sensitive missions that directly impact remote communities and critical care transport. The environment is fast-paced and varied, offering exposure to diverse aircraft and real-time operational challenges.

  • Diverse fleet exposure including Navajo, Metro, Westwind, and Astra aircraft
  • Opportunity to work in a dynamic operational environment supporting medevac and charter missions
  • Exposure to detailed engine work supporting internal engine shop operations

  • Employee & Family Assistance Program (EFAP)

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Perform scheduled and unscheduled maintenance on a diverse fleet
  • Troubleshoot and resolve mechanical issues in real-time operations
  • Support aircraft used in medevac and time-critical missions
  • Perform inspections, repairs, and maintenance in accordance with Transport Canada regulations and company standards
  • Work closely with flight operations and engineering teams to ensure operational readiness

What We’re Looking For

  • Transport Canada AME M1 License (M2 an asset)
  • 2+ years of aircraft maintenance experience
  • Strong troubleshooting and mechanical skills
  • Experience with Navajo, Metro, or Westwind aircraft considered an asset
  • Comfortable working in dynamic and fast-paced operational environments
  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to safety

Who This Role Is Perfect For

  • Engineers looking for stable base opportunities
  • Candidates who enjoy varied and operationally focused maintenance environments
  • Individuals seeking meaningful work supporting medevac and essential aviation services
  • AMEs who thrive in collaborative and fast-moving operations

The Impact

Every Aircraft You Maintain Supports
