Job Title: Electrical Engineer Mining, Mineral Processing & Heavy Industry

Job Description

This Electrical Engineer role provides technical and project leadership for complex mining, mineral processing, and heavy industrial projects within an EPCM environment. You will lead electrical engineering and design activities on both large capital projects and smaller operational support assignments, ensuring that all electrical deliverables are completed safely, accurately, on schedule, and within budget. The position offers the opportunity to take ownership of the electrical discipline, mentor junior team members, work closely with multidisciplinary project teams, and contribute across the full project lifecycle from conceptual studies through detailed design and construction support.

Responsibilities

• Lead electrical engineering and design activities for mining, mineral processing, and heavy industrial projects, including both major capital projects and sustaining/operations-support work.
• Develop, review, and approve electrical calculations, designs, drawings, specifications, and technical documentation to ensure accuracy and compliance.
• Prepare detailed electrical equipment specifications and procurement packages, supporting purchasing and vendor selection processes.
• Develop detailed design, supply, construction, and installation specifications for electrical systems and equipment.
• Review vendor drawings, data sheets, and technical documentation to confirm compliance with project specifications, applicable codes, and engineering requirements.
• Develop conceptual electrical designs and contribute to engineering studies, technical reports, and project proposals.
• Ensure all electrical designs comply with applicable industry standards, electrical codes, regulatory requirements, and established engineering practices.
• Utilize electrical analysis and design tools, including MV and HV system analysis software, to support system studies and engineering deliverables.
• Participate in project and site visits as required to support engineering activities, construction, commissioning, and overall project execution.
• Lead and coordinate teams of electrical engineers, designers, and CAD personnel, ensuring alignment with project scope, schedule, and budget.
• Provide technical direction and guidance throughout project execution, including design decisions and resolution of technical issues.
• Mentor Engineers-in-Training, junior engineers, and designers, supporting their technical development and professional growth.
• Coordinate electrical engineering activities with multidisciplinary project teams, including mechanical, process, civil/structural, instrumentation, and controls disciplines.
• Communicate directly with client engineering teams and other project stakeholders, representing the electrical discipline in meetings and reviews.
• Monitor electrical engineering progress against scope, budget, and project metrics, proactively identifying and addressing issues that could affect project delivery.
• Coordinate with project engineering management and discipline leadership to resolve technical and project-related issues in a timely manner.
• Support the successful execution of electrical work packages from conceptual design through detailed engineering, procurement, construction, and commissioning.
• Make informed engineering decisions, review and validate the work of others, and maintain quality across all electrical deliverables.
• Keep electrical engineering deliverables aligned with project scope, schedule, budget, and quality expectations within a project-driven EPCM environment.

Essential Skills

• Bachelors degree in Electrical Engineering from an accredited university.
• Minimum of 12 years of relevant electrical engineering experience.
• Registration as a Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) with a Canadian professional engineering association.
• Strong electrical engineering and design experience within industrial project environments.
• Demonstrated experience leading electrical engineering and design activities on complex projects.
• Experience supervising or providing technical direction to engineers, designers, and CAD personnel.
• Strong knowledge of applicable electrical codes, standards, and regulatory requirements.
• Proven experience preparing and reviewing electrical calculations, equipment specifications, design packages, and technical documentation.
• Experience reviewing vendor drawings and technical data for compliance with project requirements.
• Demonstrated ability to work effectively within multidisciplinary engineering teams.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to communicate effectively with clients and internal project teams.
• Ability and willingness to travel to project sites and other offices when required.
• Hands-on electrical engineering experience with medium-voltage (MV) and high-voltage (HV) systems.
• Proficiency with electrical system analysis software such as ETAP, SKM, and ASPEN.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

• Previous experience on mining and mineral processing projects.
• Strong experience working within an EPCM project environment.
• Experience supporting both major capital projects and smaller sustaining-capital or operations-support projects.
• Experience with electrical design tools such as SPEL.
• Experience with additional electrical system analysis software such as EasyPower.
• Experience developing conceptual engineering designs, feasibility studies, technical reports, and proposals.
• Experience working across multiple phases of the project lifecycle, from concept and pre-feasibility through detailed design and construction support.
• Previous experience mentoring Engineers-in-Training and developing junior engineering personnel.
• Strong understanding of multidisciplinary interfaces between electrical, mechanical, process, instrumentation and controls, and civil/structural engineering.
• Ability to take technical ownership of the electrical discipline on complex industrial projects while effectively leading other engineers and designers.
• Comfort making engineering decisions, reviewing and validating the work of others, and maintaining accountability for electrical deliverables.
• Ability to operate effectively in a project-driven environment with multiple concurrent assignments and changing priorities.

Work Environment

This is a full-time position within a large project delivery group that supports more than 20 active programs across mining, metals, rail, and linear infrastructure projects throughout Canada and the United States. Assignments are typically structured as approximately 12month contracts with strong potential for extension based on project workload, offering continuity beyond a single project. You will be part of a shared project delivery organization, providing exposure to large, multidisciplinary EPC/EPCM programs that involve mechanical, electrical, civil, structural, piping, geotechnical, controls, project engineering, and project controls disciplines.
