If you prove your technical capability and alignment with our standards, you will quickly transition into independent work and steady, full-time hours as we scale our business operations.

Day to day

• Flexible Scheduling: Shifts target a standard 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM window but there is a lot of flexibility around hours and timing to maximize time.

• Field Workload: Typically manage 3 site visits per day across Calgary and its surrounding outskirts. Lengths of appointments are highly unpredictable and volatile depending on the job complexity or equipment moves.
• Customer Interaction: Walk into both residential homes and commercial gyms presenting a neat, clean-cut professional appearance while wearing a provided branded company shirt.

• Actively troubleshoot mechanical and basic electrical faults on site.
• Document diagnostic issues clearly and relay information accurately to the owner to facilitate parts ordering, quotes, and follow-up scheduling.
• Return to the site to carefully install ordered manufacturer components and test equipment functionality.
• Coordinate directly with the owner or manufacturer technical support lines when encountering unknown system errors to avoid costly, unauthorized guesswork on the job.

Additional note- Logistics & Transportation: Must possess a reliable personal vehicle to travel to various client sites. (A $15 per job trip charge bonus will be paid out to cover vehicle/travel overhead).

• 1-5 years of hands on mechanical and electrical Technician, repair, assembly work

Nice to have skills

• Prior field experience fixing commercial or residential fitness equipment.
• Being an avid gym user or possessing an organic knowledge of fitness facility jargon and equipment functions (e.g., distinguishing machine components naturally).
• Foundational business acumen, familiarity with computer/booking booking software, or an interest in process improvement and SEO to help grow a small business operations footprint.

$20/hr to $30/hr.
