Job description

We're excited to share an opportunity for an existing vacancy as Senior Mechanical Analysis Engineer.

Join a specialized engineering team supporting complex, custom-designed nuclear equipment in a regulated environment. This is a chance to apply deep analytical expertise to modern Small Modular Reactor and first-of-a-kind projects, including U.S.-based work. The team has grown quickly and is largely early-career, so your technical judgment, review skills and mentorship will have a direct and visible impact. You will work closely with a design and manufacturing group, and you will see equipment through its full lifecycle, from concept to testing and service.

Daily responsibilities may include but are not limited to:

• Perform specialized engineering analysis, pressure boundary work and numerical calculations supporting complex nuclear equipment and projects
• Use ANSYS for finite element analysis, AutoPIPE and CAESAR II for piping stress analysis, and specialized tools for radiation and flow calculations, depending on the assignment
• Review and approve junior engineers' deliverables, provide practical technical guidance and help develop their capabilities
• Prepare clear calculations, technical reports and supporting engineering documentation, with assumptions and results documented and traceable
• Collaborate closely with the design team on concept and mechanism design, drawings and manufacturing coordination
• Take part in client site visits, equipment walk-downs, shop floor testing and troubleshooting as needed
• Learn and apply company procedures, progressing from supervised assignments to independent, complex analysis work

Mandatory Requirements:

• Current P.Eng. designation, with Ontario registration required for senior review and approval responsibilities
• Approximately 5 to 10+ years of relevant engineering experience, with the ability to provide experienced technical support
• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering
• Strong engineering analysis, numerical calculation and pressure boundary or mechanical analysis experience
• Hands-on experience with ANSYS, AutoPIPE and/or CAESAR II
• Ability to make independent, defensible engineering decisions and document them clearly
• Ability to review and approve junior engineers' work and provide constructive guidance
• Strong technical writing, communication and cross-functional collaboration skills
• Ability to successfully complete background checks, P.Eng. verification and applicable export-control screening and authorization, including U.S. citizenship verification for U.S. project work
• Ability to work onsite five days per week

Preferred Requirements:

• Experience in nuclear, energy, aerospace, defence, heavy equipment or other regulated engineering environments
• Prior experience mentoring or supervising junior engineers
• Experience with radiation and flow calculations
• Familiarity with equipment walk-downs, shop floor testing and troubleshooting

Salary Range: $80,000 - $115,000
