Job Description

Posted on: August 26, 2025

Site Operator – Hydrogen - Clean Energy (Winnipeg, MB)

We are seeking a Site Operator in Winnipeg to support the safe, reliable, and efficient operation of an on-site hydrogen production and dispensing facility. This is a hands-on role for someone with strong mechanical aptitude, familiarity with pressure systems, and a safety-first mindset who wants to be part of Canada’s clean energy transition.

What You’ll Do

  • Oversee daily operation of the hydrogen production and dispensing system (Mon–Fri, 9–5, with occasional fueling needs outside of these hours)
  • Dispense hydrogen safely in line with all regulatory and safety requirements
  • Perform inspections, monitor system parameters (pressure, temperature, flow rates), and log performance data
  • Carry out preventative maintenance and troubleshoot mechanical, electrical, and control system issues
  • Ensure compliance with relevant codes and standards (ASME, Alberta Safety Codes Act, SAE J2601/5, etc.)
  • Maintain site cleanliness, readiness, and security
  • Respond to and report anomalies, safety incidents, or near misses
  • Support engineering and technical teams in troubleshooting and continuous improvement efforts
  • Participate in training, commissioning, and adoption of new procedures

What We’re Looking For

  • Mechanical aptitude and hands-on experience with industrial or process equipment
  • Familiarity with pressure systems, valves, regulators, and piping systems
  • Working knowledge of ASME pressure vessel standards and Alberta Safety Codes (preferred)
  • Certified, or able to be certified within 3 months, as a 4th Class Power Engineer in Canada
  • Technical training or trades background (instrumentation, millwright, gas fitting, etc.) is an asset
  • Experience with gas handling or hazardous materials is beneficial
  • Ability to work independently, make sound judgement calls, and follow established safety procedures
  • Comfortable with digital tools for data logging and reporting
  • Hands-on skills: basic wiring, compression fittings, pump or valve maintenance, and use of power tools

Why This Role

This is a unique opportunity to be on the ground floor of a growing clean energy sector. You’ll take ownership of daily site operations, play a critical role in supporting safe hydrogen fueling, and contribute directly to advancing Canada’s low-emission future.
