Electromate Inc. · Virtual job based in Calgary, AB · $80,000 to $97,000 annually (to be negotiated)

applies via www.electromate.ca

Verdict

Electromate Inc. is a legitimate, established industrial automation company with a functional website and active careers section, which supports authenticity. However, the posting claims a Calgary, AB location while the company's actual headquarters is in Vaughan, Ontario—a significant geographic mismatch that raises moderate fraud concern. The role itself is well-detailed with specific responsibilities, reasonable salary range, and legitimate application methods (company email and careers page), but the location discrepancy and lack of clarification about the virtual/Calgary arrangement warrant caution.
