About the role
Join a high-impact team supporting IT professionals who develop cutting-edge systems for the Royal Canadian Navy.

What we do at Weir
At Weir, we combine engineering expertise, innovation, and technology to solve complex challenges for customers around the world. In this role, you'll apply those strengths in support of mission-critical naval systems, contributing to the reliability, security, and performance of environments that are essential to Canada's maritime defence capabilities.
Make your impact
You’ll play a key role in solving real-world challenges. You’ll apply your skills to deliver results that matter—whether that’s through engineering, planning or customer support. You’ll work with purpose, learn every day and help shape a more sustainable future
What you’ll do
In this role, you will help maintain a Department of National Defence IT facility consisting of IT infrastructure and different networks and systems, support over 50 IT specialists and engineers nationwide conducting development and testing using that facility, and contribute to the application of critical processes like configuration management, incident response, and change control — all in a fast-paced, purpose-driven environment.
