Jobbeschreibung

What Vista Does

Vista Projects is an integrated engineering firm who has been solving complex challenges in the energy industry since 1985. We are innovators at our core. We continually find better, smarter ways to design and deliver oil and gas projects, and we are proud to be contributing on some of the most exciting low-carbon and synthetic fuel developments in the North America. For our people, that means meaningful, varied work and a real chance to shape how modern engineering gets done.

We are innovators in the energy industry. We actively find ways to improve how oil and gas projects are designed and delivered, and we are contributing to some remarkable low-carbon and synthetic fuel developments; including electro sustainable aviation fuel (eSAF) and gas-to-liquids (GTL) projects. We are headquartered in Calgary and maintain a satellite office in Houston.

Why We Do It

The world needs energy, and better engineering makes the projects that deliver it safer, more efficient and more sustainable. Our multi-discipline teams have designed some of the most challenging and successful projects in the North American energy sector, from early-stage studies and pilots to large-scale commercial expansions. We take pride in doing that work well, and just as much pride in continuously improving how we do it.

What You Would Do in This Role

The System Integration Project Manager leads the delivery of SI projects at the intersection of engineering data, application development and emerging AI tooling. This role coordinates the technical, administrative, and financial details of each project so the execution team can focus on exceptional service and technical excellence. Activities include estimation, planning/scheduling, change management, identification and mitigation of risks, progress reporting, and coordination with disciplines outside the SI department. The Project Manager must understand the overall direction, priority and schedules to execute the project.

This is not a traditional project administration role. The right candidate thinks like an engineer, manages like a delivery lead, and is energized by applying AI tools to real industrial problems, for both Vista internal operations and client-facing project delivery.

Duties include:

• Managing scope, schedule, budget, and resourcing for concurrent SI projects, including AI-assisted applications, ETL/data integrations, and digital twin deployments
• Maintaining action item lists from project meetings and following up with responsible parties
• Identifying and facilitating the removal of roadblocks encountered by the technical team
• Coordinating management of change activities (scope changes, trends, DCNs)
• Coordinating and maintaining risk registers, including data integrity, security, and AI-specific risks (data privacy, output accuracy, client data governance)
• Participating in schedule review meetings and reviewing and preparing status reports
• Supporting the preparation of scopes of work, project estimates, and interfaces (e.g., DBM, PEP, RACI chart, reports), including scoping and estimating rapid-prototype and AI-powered solutions
• Translating client and internal business needs into clear requirements for the technical team, and identifying fit-for-purpose opportunities for automation and AI
• Using AI tools (LLM assistants, workflow automation) to streamline project administration such as meeting summaries, action tracking, status reporting, and estimate preparation
• Supporting business development for the SI group
• Performing business analytics to support the development of digital twins
• Liaising across Engineering, Design, Project Management, and IT to align on solutions and interfaces
• Liaising with the SI Manager to outline project-specific resourcing
• Ensuring clear documentation, workflows, and training materials are delivered to project teams and clients
• Executing tasks of a technical nature to support the initiatives of the team
• Performing other duties as requested

Requirements

• Post-secondary education in engineering, design, computer science, management information systems, or project management
• 5 years of demonstrated ability to manage multiple concurrent projects
• Working understanding of data integration concepts (ETL, relational databases, APIs) sufficient to plan and manage technical work
• Comfort working with messy, real-world engineering or industrial data
• Ability to meet safety requirements to attend site visits across North America
• Practical experience with AI/LLM tools: prompt engineering, using AI assistants to accelerate work, and enough understanding of how AI-augmented applications are built (LLM integration, RAG, workflow automation) to scope, estimate, and manage their delivery
• Advanced Microsoft Office software skills
• Excellent command of the English language (both written and verbal)
• Strong communicator, able to translate complex technical architectures and data into clear, actionable insights for non-technical stakeholders and leadership
• Proactive in anticipating the needs of internal and external clients
• Self-starter with a bias toward delivery: get a working version in front of the client early, then refine
• Able to quickly develop rapport with staff and clients
• Detail orientation and good organizational skills
• Strong presentation skills
• Ability to work within a multi-disciplinary team comprised of engineers, designers, developers, and project support personnel
• Team player with a positive attitude and always willing to accept new challenges

Preferred

• 10 years’ related experience in engineering and design with a knowledge of engineering documentation required through the project lifecycle
• Bachelor’s degree in engineering or applied science with project execution experience including design, engineering, and supply chain management
• A background in, or strong exposure to, industrial/energy sector engineering workflows (pipeline, oil sands, facilities, or similar)
• Experience with development or project management of Digital Twins for project execution and/or operations and maintenance
• Experience managing delivery of software, AI, or data integration projects, including iterative or agile delivery methods
• Experience with RAG (retrieval-augmented generation) pipelines, vector databases, or document intelligence applications
• Exposure to machine learning model development or predictive analytics
• Experience in data visualization and analysis (e.g., Power BI or similar tools)
• Hands-on scripting or development experience (Python, .NET, SQL, or similar)
• Strong knowledge of engineering terms and document types, and the ability to read and interpret engineering documentation
• Understanding of IT and cloud-based infrastructure
• Experience with AVEVA tools (e.g., Engineering, Instrumentation, Electrical, E3D, AVEVA NET / AIM, ERM)
• Provide mentorship and support to less experienced team members
