Service Technician - Southern Ontario

Fully On-Site

Build Your Career in Industrial Automation & Steel Production

 

Join RHI Magnesita and become part of a team bringing advanced robotics and refractory technology to one of Canada’s leading steel producers. As a Service Technician, you’ll work hands-on with a robotic spray system that applies refractory lining to tundishes—playing a critical role in keeping steel production running safely and efficiently.

 

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working with equipment, troubleshooting problems, and being directly involved in industrial operations, while gaining exposure to automation and cutting-edge applications.

 

What You’ll Be Doing

 

In this role, your day will combine machine operation, problem-solving, and hands-on technical work in a heavy industrial environment:

  • Operate a robotic spraying system used to apply refractory liner materials (3–4 tundish applications per shift)
  • Set up and position the tundish robot and supporting equipment (mixer, pump, hoses)
  • Assess conditions on the tundish deck and determine spraying requirements
  • Perform routine maintenance, inspections, and troubleshooting of mechanical equipment
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and safe work area around the equipment
  • Enter production and performance data into pre-formatted systems (basic computer use)
  • Work closely with site personnel while representing RHI Magnesita on-site
  • Participate in trials, improvements, and continuous optimization of processes
  • Follow all site safety protocols, including daily safety meetings and structured safety programs

 

What to Expect

 

  • Training period (first month): Monday–Friday daytime schedule
  • Transition to a rotating continental shift (2-2-3) with 12-hour days
  • A hands-on, team-oriented environment within a steel mill
  • Work that keeps you active - this is not a desk job

 

What You Bring

 

We’re looking for someone who is mechanically inclined, dependable, and safety-focused, with a strong work ethic and willingness to learn.

  • 1–3 years of experience in a production, manufacturing, or industrial environment
  • Mechanical aptitude and comfort working with equipment and hand tools
  • Basic troubleshooting skills and a practical, problem-solving mindset
  • Strong commitment to workplace safety
  • Basic computer skills (data entry, familiarity with Microsoft Excel or similar)
  • Ability to lift up to 35 lbs and work in a physically demanding environment
  • Ability to work rotating shifts (including weekends as part of the schedule)

 

Compensation & Benefits

  • Salary: $55,000 – $65,000 CAD annually

 

Working Environment

 

Work is performed in a heavy industrial manufacturing environment with high noise levels and exposure to operational equipment.

RHI Magnesita is committed to employment equity and welcomes applications from all qualified individuals, including women, Indigenous peoples, persons with disabilities, members of visible minorities, and individuals of diverse gender identities and sexual orientations. We are committed to providing an inclusive, accessible workplace and ensuring accommodation throughout the recruitment and employment process in accordance with applicable human rights and accessibility legislation.
