Job description

Aircraft Maintenance Engineer (AME)

Join SkyCare’s Maintenance team and play an important role in supporting aircraft that deliver life-saving medevac services and specialized charter operations across Canada, North America, and the Caribbean.

As an Aircraft Maintenance Engineer (AME), you will help ensure the safety, reliability, and readiness of our fleet through hands-on maintenance, inspections, troubleshooting, and repairs in a dynamic operational environment.

In this role, you’ll go beyond routine maintenance. You’ll be supporting time-sensitive missions that directly impact remote communities and critical care transport. The environment is fast-paced and varied, offering exposure to diverse aircraft and real-time operational challenges.

Location: St. Andrews, MB

Why This Role Stands Out

• Competitive compensation up to $60/hour, dependent on qualifications, experience, shift premium, and base premium

• Diverse fleet exposure including Navajo, Metro, Westwind, and Astra aircraft

• Opportunity to work in a dynamic operational environment supporting medevac and charter missions

• Exposure to detailed engine work supporting internal engine shop operations

• Exposure to Structures, Avionics, and Modification specialties within a fully rated AMO

• Collaborative team environment working closely with Flight Operations and Engineering teams

• Meaningful work supporting critical operations across Canada and beyond

Benefits & Perks

• Extended health, dental, vision, life, and disability coverage

• Employee & Family Assistance Program (EFAP)

• Group Retirement Savings Plan with company matching

• Professional development support for training and certifications

• Travel and per diem support when working away from base, where applicable

What You’ll Be Doing

• Perform scheduled and unscheduled maintenance on a diverse fleet

• Troubleshoot and resolve mechanical issues in real-time operations

• Support aircraft used in medevac and time-critical missions

• Perform inspections, repairs, and maintenance in accordance with Transport Canada regulations and company standards

• Work closely with flight operations and engineering teams to ensure operational readiness

What We’re Looking For

• Transport Canada AME M1 License (M2 an asset)

• 2+ years of aircraft maintenance experience

• Strong troubleshooting and mechanical skills

• Experience with Navajo, Metro, or Westwind aircraft considered an asset

• Comfortable working in dynamic and fast-paced operational environments

• Strong attention to detail and commitment to safety

Who This Role Is Perfect For

• Engineers looking for stable base opportunities

• Candidates who enjoy varied and operationally focused maintenance environments

• Individuals seeking meaningful work supporting medevac and essential aviation services

• AMEs who thrive in collaborative and fast-moving operations

The Impact

Every aircraft you maintain supports:

• Medevac missions to remote communities

• Organ transport and critical care flights

• Essential charter operations across North America

This is meaningful and rewarding work where each day and each flight directly supports communities and critical care operations that people rely on.
