About us

We are a clean energy company that develops, builds, owns and operates renewable projects across Canada. Our growing portfolio spans utility-scale solar, wind and battery energy storage (BESS), and as a long-term owner we stay with every project from the first feasibility study through years of operation. We are expanding our Toronto team and looking for an entry-level engineer who wants to help build Canada's clean energy future.

• Supporting engineering design and technical reviews for solar, wind and BESS projects at every stage
• Preparing energy production estimates, site evaluations and technical due diligence
• Assisting with grid connection applications and coordination with utilities and system operators, including IESO processes
• Reviewing technical submittals from EPC contractors, consultants and equipment vendors
• Supporting construction and commissioning, with travel to project sites across Canada
• Analyzing performance data from operating assets and recommending improvements
• Contributing to the tools, templates and standards our engineering team runs on

• Eligibility to work in Canada
• Internship, co-op or project experience in energy is an asset but not required. Registration or intent to register as an EIT (Engineer in Training) is also an asset. We hire for aptitude and attitude, and we invest in developing our engineers.

What we offer

• CAD $70,000 - $90,000 base salary, depending on experience
• Hybrid working from our Toronto office
• A structured development path with mentorship from senior engineers
• Hands-on exposure to the full project lifecycle across three technologies
