Job Description
Fluidstream Inc. (www.fluidstream.co) builds and services patented compression equipment for oilfield production applications.
We are currently looking for a Field Service Technician to join our team in Calgary, Alberta. This is primarily a field service role supporting customers at Alberta oilfield sites, with shop work as a secondary responsibility.

This is also a development role for someone who wants to build a long term oilfield service career. Reliability, attitude, and willingness to learn matter more than already having every qualification.

- Work outdoors in Alberta field conditions, including winter and summer weather.

- Assist with assembly of Fluidstream compression units.
- Perform hydraulic plumbing, hose and fitting work, mechanical assembly, teardown, inspection, cleaning, and preparation.
- Support basic wiring and control panel work when required.
- Help test units before shipment or field deployment.
- Organize parts, tools, and shop materials as needed.
- Work independently in the shop once tasks are assigned.

- Must be reliable, safety minded, and comfortable working outdoors on oilfield sites.
- Must be able to lift 50 lb.
- Must be able to travel for field service work.
- Must be available for overtime and occasional evenings or weekends when field work requires it.
- Valid Class 5 driver’s license required.
