• Solid working knowledge of the Ontario Building Code and relevant CSA Standards
• Proficient with structural analysis and design software (ETABS, SAFE, SAP2000, RISA3D, etc.)
• Able to define clear goals, navigate complex challenges, and see projects through to completion
• A strong communicator who collaborates well with clients, contractors, and teammates
• A natural mentor who enjoys supporting junior engineers and strengthening the team
• Excited to work in-office in London, Kitchener, or St. Thomas- with flexibility when needed

• Attend one of co-elevates group events such as potlucks, lunch & learns, book club, etc.
• Participate in one of co-elevates charity causes such as blood drives, toy drives, food drives, or seasonal in-house charity events.
