Job Description
Fluidstream Inc. (www.fluidstream.co) builds and services patented compression equipment for oilfield production applications.
We are looking for a Senior Oilfield Millwright / Mentor to support difficult field troubleshooting, mentor younger technicians, and provide practical oilfield service judgment during customer site visits.

It may also be a strong fit for someone near retirement, semi retired, or retired who still wants to stay involved in meaningful oilfield work without taking on a labour intensive role.

- Help confirm diagnoses, identify practical repair steps, and guide service decisions.
- Speak directly with customers during site visits when useful to explain findings or build confidence.
- Provide simple field notes, photos, and practical service recommendations after site visits.
- Support occasional shop inspections, teardown reviews, and build reviews.
- Help younger staff develop stronger troubleshooting habits and field judgment.

- Must be comfortable travelling to Alberta customer locations with Fluidstream staff.
- Valid Class 5 driver’s license required.

- Basic computer and phone documentation required, including email, photos, simple notes, and service recommendations.
