We are seeking an experienced and adaptable VFD (Variable Frequency Drive) Technician to join our dynamic team servicing oil and gas operations in remote field locations. This fly-in/fly-out role focuses on the installation, maintenance, troubleshooting, and repair of VFD systems and related automation equipment critical to upstream oilfield production and facility operations. You’ll work independently and alongside multidisciplinary teams to ensure the reliable operation of VFD-driven equipment — including motors, pumps, compressors, and control systems — while adhering to safety and regulatory standards.

Who we are:

At the Crimson Group, we provide our clients with high-value automation, instrumentation, electrical design, and process operation solutions. With the capabilities of a large enterprise, and the agility and responsiveness of a small company, we are a customer-focused provider of automation and integrated solutions. Crimson Group provides total integration of design, project management, panel manufacturing, installation/commissioning, maintenance, and repair for North America and select international markets.


What we Offer:

Competitive salary, comprehensive benefit package, and a living out allowance (Per Diem).

A laptop and company cell phone.
An experienced logistics team to handle all flight and accommodation arrangements.
Premium company accommodation while on shift at no cost to our employees. Fully furnished condos with amenities such as pools, and fitness facilities.
PPE allowance.
An environment of continuous learning with the opportunity to enhance your skills & experience and grow within the organization.
The opportunity to participate in charitable events through our charity, RedTail Community Foundation.


What you will be Doing:

Install, commission, maintain, and troubleshoot VFDs, soft starters, and motor control equipment.
Diagnose electrical, electronic, and mechanical issues in VFD-driven applications (pumps, compressors, fans, etc.).
Program, configure, and calibrate drives (including parameter adjustments, tuning, and network integration).
Interpret electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and control drawings.
Perform field repairs, component replacements, and preventive maintenance.
Collaborate with automation, instrumentation, and electrical teams to support facility operations.
Maintain detailed service records, reports, and documentation.
Ensure work is performed in compliance with safety policies and industry standards.


Your Skills and Qualifications:

Minimum 5 years of hands-on experience with VFD systems in Oil & Gas operations.
Strong working knowledge of VFD brands (e.g., ABB, Siemens, Allen-Bradley, Schneider, etc.).
Journeyman Electrician certification (or equivalent) is an asset.
Experience with motor controls, PLC integration, and automation systems preferred.
Ability to troubleshoot complex electrical/mechanical systems under minimal supervision.
Comfortable working in remote environments on a rotational schedule.
Valid safety certifications (H2S Alive, First Aid, Fall Protection, etc.) are assets.
Excellent problem-solving, communication, and documentation skills.
Must hold a valid driver's license and have the ability to pass a pre-employment drug and alcohol screening.

As part of our commitment to maintaining a safe and professional work environment, the Crimson Group of Companies conducts comprehensive background checks and drug and alcohol testing on all prospective employees as part of the final offer process. These checks are intended to verify the accuracy of information provided by candidates and assess any potential risks to the company or its employees.
