Whether you’re eager to grow into project leadership or already confidently managing mid‑sized projects, here you’ll do real work with real people for clients who genuinely value your expertise.

If you’re ready to make a lasting impact alongside a supportive team that celebrates every success, we want to hear from you.

What you’ll do

Some of your key responsibilities may include:

• Lead the design and management of projects with routine to moderate complexity, including preparing detailed specifications and project manuals that help build reliable municipal infrastructure.
• Gather and coordinate relevant data and information to conduct thorough analyses using accepted tools and standards, ensuring informed and accurate project decisions.
• Prepare clear, comprehensive technical reports that communicate project progress and outcomes effectively to clients and stakeholders.
• Guide drafters in producing accurate drawings as required, supporting smooth project execution.
• Develop and update technical documents and internal resource tools that enhance team efficiency and knowledge sharing.
• Maintain project management documentation and databases, including schedules, budgets, client contracts, and proposal scopes, to keep projects on track and clients informed.
• Support or act as Project Manager by coordinating with contractors to ensure project schedules, costs, deliverables, and scope are clearly understood and met, contributing to successful project delivery.
• Collaborate closely with Survey, CAD, and other team members to fulfill construction requirements, ensuring quality and consistency in project execution.
• Build and maintain strong client relationships, while actively seeking new opportunities through communication and networking to foster business growth.
• Oversee the work of other project engineers and technologists as needed, promoting team development and quality outcomes.

  • Level 3: Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) or Professional Technologist (P.Tech.) designation, with 5–7 years of industry experience.
