Heavy Duty Mechanic

1 week ago

Area F Kokanee Range, Canada Baldface Full time $33 - $45

Are you an experienced Service Manager / Mechanic looking to work at one of British Columbia's premier cat skiing destinations?

Baldface provides an unforgettable backcountry experience across two iconic operations: Baldface Lodge and Baldface Valhalla. Our team of mechanics and supporting staff are the backbone of the operation, ensuring our equipment is always ready to serve our guests the best day of their lives over and over.

As a year-round Baldface mechanic, you'll be hands-on maintaining and repairing a diverse fleet that includes snowcats, generators, snowmobiles, and passenger transport vehicles. This role is ideal for a heavy equipment, diesel, or off-road mechanic looking for a change of pace. 

Experience with dozers, excavators, forestry equipment, mining gear, or agricultural machinery translates well, and snowcat-specific training is provided. This isn't a shop-only position. You'll work in real backcountry conditions, diagnosing and solving problems in the field where mechanical intuition, calm decision-making, and resourcefulness truly matter. When the cats are out roaming the mountain, you will be supporting the team around the base with your skills to ensure that lodge operations continue to run smoothly.

Our ideal mechanic is optimistic, adaptable, and unfazed by the unexpected—someone who can keep the generators running, get a machine unstuck, diagnose an issue in the field, and make safe, timely repairs with resources available. 

If you're looking to work alongside a passionate crew, wake up to stunning mountain views each day, and create connections that span the mountain industry - this is where your skills belong.

The Essentials:

$ $45.00 per hour, commensurate with experience and/or apprenticeship level.

This position is lodge-based, year-round and will work a set shift under an averaging agreement.

Benefits include:

  • Paid time off and paid tuition during years 2-4 of your apprenticeship 

  • Tool/PPE allowance

  • Full health and dental for you and your dependents

  • Confidential Employee Family Assistance Program

  • Retirement savings program with Baldface matching contributions at 3%

  • Paid time off and tuition assistance for skills training and upgrades

  • Cell phone allowance

You'll feel right at home if you have good practical knowledge of:

  • Hydrostatic drive systems

  • Diesel engines

  • Generators

  • Snowmobiles

  • Electrical systems and equipment

  • Outboard engines

  • Backcountry travel on sleds and side-by-sides

  • Boat operation

  • Trucking and trailering

Other skills that put the cherry on the cake:

  • Shop management including inventory, parts and fleet management

  • Basic backcountry first aid and avalanche safety

  • Excellent communication skills

  • Solid computer skills with fleet management software

  • Rigging skills

  • MIG and ARC Welding skills

  • Fabrication skills

Don't forget to bring your:

  • Red Seal Heavy Duty Technician, Automotive, Agricultural Equipment or Millwright's license or records of at least one year of the apprenticeship foundations training from a qualified trades diploma program

  • Pleasure craft operator license

  • Valid class 5 BC driver's license with a clean abstract

  • Toolbox

  • Necessary winter gear for outdoor backcountry work including DOT Helmet
