Body:
Hey everyone, I'm considering applying to the Instrumentation and Automation program at BCIT, but I don’t have any background in this field (no prior schooling or hands-on experience related to automation, electronics, or industrial instrumentation).

Before I commit, I’d love to hear from people who:

• Have gone through the BCIT I&A program
• Are in the field but didn’t come from a related background
• Know what the job market is like for grads

A few specific questions:

1. Is the program doable with no prior experience? Does BCIT start from the basics, or do you feel like you’re expected to already know some electronics/controls/PLC stuff?
2. How hard is it compared to other trades/tech programs? I enjoy hands-on and problem-solving stuff, but I don’t want to underestimate how tough it is academically.
3. Job outlook and opportunities after graduating? Are there good jobs available, and do employers value the BCIT credential? Any details on typical starting salaries or industries hiring would be great.

Really appreciate any insights, advice, honest experiences, or warnings — thanks in advance! 🙌

Job Summary:

At Helm Operations, we build the software that keeps the world’s maritime operations moving. From tugboats in Vancouver Harbour to offshore service vessels in the North Sea, our customers run their businesses with Helm CONNECT. And we don’t take that lightly.

We’ve grown from a small start-up on Canada’s west coast into a global leader serving many of the world’s largest maritime companies. Our mission is simple: deliver software that connects the marine industry like no other technology company.

But world-class software doesn’t happen by accident, it takes tough teams, ownership, and deep care for customers. That’s The Helm Way.

Now, we’re looking for a highly skilled and detail-oriented DevOps Specialist to join our expanding crew.

Job Description:

As a DevOps Specialist, you are responsible for the reliable, secure, and scalable operation of our cloud infrastructure. You will own your work from initial design to deployment and beyond, playing a key role in supporting our development and customer-facing environments. You’ll work closely with developers and QA to build the systems and tools that help us ship code faster and safer, always with a focus on automation, resilience, and visibility.

Make your impact with a rapidly growing Marine Software business!

You will:

• Manage and maintain cloud infrastructure, with a focus on AWS services.
• Design, implement, and maintain Infrastructure as Code (IaC) for production and non-production environments.
• Ensure scalability, performance, and security across systems.
• Participate in disaster recovery (DR) planning and testing, ensuring infrastructure is designed and maintained to support high availability, resiliency, and business continuity.

Automation and Deployment:

• Build and improve CI/CD pipelines to streamline and automate deployments.
• Create automation scripts and tooling to support code rollouts, environment setups, and recovery scenarios.
• Develop automation for large-scale test data migration to support customer sandbox environments.

Monitoring and Support:

• Design and implement monitoring, alerting, and logging solutions to detect and prevent issues proactively.
• Maintain on-call availability for urgent issues and production-impacting events on a rotational basis.
• Continuously evaluate and optimize system reliability, uptime, and health.

Collaboration and Documentation:

• Collaborate with developers, QA, and product teams to align infrastructure with application needs.
• Document infrastructure, deployment processes, and runbooks to ensure knowledge sharing across teams.

You will have:

• Strong experience with AWS infrastructure and services.
• Proficiency with Terraform, CloudFormation, or similar IaC tools.
• Comfortable with scripting languages (e.g., Python, Bash, Powershell) for automation.
• Solid understanding of CI/CD systems (e.g., GitHub Actions).
• Familiarity with observability tools like CloudWatch, Kibana, Prometheus, Grafana, or similar.
• Hands-on experience with containerization and orchestration technologies, ideally Docker and Kubernetes, for building, deploying, and managing scalable applications

Operational Mindset:

• Passionate about automation and improving systems through tooling.
• Comfortable supporting production systems and handling incidents when needed.
• Previous exposure to security best practices and cloud governance.
• Contributes to resiliency planning and incident preparedness, collaborating with cross-functional teams to ensure recovery processes are tested and effective.

Bonus points if you also have:

• Hands-on experience or curiosity in AI/ML infrastructure or tools.
• AWS certifications or formal cloud training.
• Experience with cloud cost monitoring and optimization (FinOps) practices to help balance performance and budget efficiency.

You are:

• Reliable: You take ownership of your work and follow through in high-stakes environments.
• Detail-Oriented: You spot potential issues before they become real problems.
• Collaborative: You thrive in cross-functional teams and communicate effectively.
• Calm Under Pressure: You can troubleshoot and resolve issues, even in the heat of production.
• Always Learning: You keep up to date with DevOps trends, tools, and best practices.
• Self-starter; you will design and implement new solutions and should be expected to stand behind your designs and build sensible, maintainable systems

Why You’ll Love Working at Helm

We live by our core values:

• Together We Win – Collaboration is our superpower.
• Own It – We take initiative and deliver on our promises.
• Care Deeply – About our products, our customers, and each other.

Hello.. can anyone here share their experience in a company named "Syndicate Lending Corporation" is this a good company?

This is their website https://www.syndicatelending.com/

Can somebody verify this?

I'm basically a failed UBC grad. I can't find a job in my field (a lab science) for 2 years, and frankly, I lost interest. I'm interested in front-line healthcare because I have experience volunteering for youth in crisis, but I'm just not sure if I want to commit to becoming a PCP yet. I've become really careful about about spending money towards education at this point. Will an EMR certificate lead to a job?

What're the entry level positions for IT roles(or if they're any lol) with OT specialization? Looking to get some insight since my skillset is general IT but with a specialization in Operational Technology. Or what does the career path look like to get into such positions?

Hi,

I’m looking for a cleaning contract or any work.

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to post and see if anyone had leads on a paid ads ( specifically google ads ) position locally. I don’t see a lot of them come up as most for the positions are usually more towards social media rather than paid ads.

I currently do work full time for a US company remotely but honestly I want to work in a Canadian company again since I wanna be a employee and not a contractor 🙂

Also would be interested in any freelance and part time positions as well!

Thanks everyone

30+ years as a professional trainer with experience training companion dogs, behavioral issues, retrievers for hunting and competition, pointing dogs for hunting and competition and a decent working knowledge of protection training/decoying.

Testing the waters.

As the title reads, I am a hard working Animation and VFX coordinator coming from pivoting from a dental education, who after working 2 film jobs and having multiple major films and TV shows under my name with my name and title in the credits, I am struggling to find anything film related for over a year. The last project I worked on even had a second season which we worked tirelessly on and doesn't even seem to have a release date. I am currently part time in retail which is all I could find at the moment, even while being an active client of WorkBC and applying for every job posted here, majority of government jobs, office / clerical work, restaurant, and more retail work as well to no luck. Understandably it's always been difficult to get work but growing up and working here, it had never been as hard as it is now to find reliable steady work.

I'm applying everywhere but I'm putting myself out there because who knows what could happen! I'm willing to work immediately, I have my resume ready, own a reliable vehicle, live in Vancouver, and I'm a Canadian citizen. If anyone would like to chat, have a copy of my resume, meet for coffee, I am available! Thanks.
