About Us
Ideal Integration Inc. is an established, award-winning Edmonton integration firm known for high-end automation, security, and AV work. We are expanding into commercial and industrial security — AI-powered video surveillance, enterprise access control, and building automation — and we're building the team that will lead that growth.
This is a ground-floor opportunity: you'll help shape a growing commercial/industrial division, including the launch of our electrical services offering.
Job Overview
We're looking for a Master Electrician to work alongside our lead technician on commercial and industrial installations. You'll bring the electrical expertise; we'll invest in training you on the technology side — or better yet, you already have hands-on experience with security and automation systems.
You will install, wire, commission, and support:
- Commercial video surveillance systems, including AI video analytics platforms (Scylla AI – gun detection, perimeter intrusion, object detection, false alarm filtering)
- Access control and electronic locking systems (Kantec locking systems)
- HVAC automation and building controls — a key growth area for us
- Commercial and industrial electrical work supporting our installations and standalone electrical projects
- Control4 automation systems (smaller portion of the role)
What We're Looking For
Required:
- Master Electrician certification (Alberta Safety Codes Council) or Journeyman Electrician actively pursuing Master certification.
- Valid Class 5 driver's license and clean abstract.
- Ability to pass a criminal record check (required for security industry work).
- Comfortable working on commercial and industrial job sites, including lifts, ladders, and mechanical rooms.
- Strong troubleshooting mindset and willingness to learn new systems.
Strong Assets (or willingness to be trained):
- Experience with CCTV/IP camera systems, NVRs, and VMS platforms.
- Experience with access control, electronic locks, door hardware, and low-voltage systems.
- Experience with building automation / HVAC controls (BACnet, Modbus, thermostat and RTU controls).
- Networking fundamentals (IP addressing, PoE, switches, VLANs).
- Alarm installer licensing or eligibility.
Why This Role Is Different
- Top-of-market pay — up to $60/hour for the right candidate
- Paid manufacturer training and certifications (Scylla AI, Cantec, Control4, and more)
- Variety — no two projects alike: industrial sites, commercial buildings, and advanced technology
- Career path — help us launch and lead our electrical division as we grow
- Company vehicle/tools support, and a small, professional team that does the job right
This role requires a dedicated professional committed to safety standards and technological excellence in commercial security solutions.
Pay: $45.00-$60.00 per hour
Benefits:
- Extended health care
- Paid time off
- Vision care
