• Participate in site visits, field investigations, and construction support activities when required.

What You’ll Bring:

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering.

• 10+ years of relevant electrical engineering experience focused on building electrical systems and facility power distribution.

• Candidates with less experience who hold a Professional Engineer (PE) license and are ready for a ‘step-up’ opportunity are strongly encouraged to apply.

• Demonstrated expertise in designing low voltage electrical distribution systems for complex facilities.

• Strong proficiency in AutoCAD and Revit for electrical design and documentation.

• Experience performing lighting calculations and photometric analysis using AGi32.

• Strong understanding of applicable electrical codes and standards, including NEC and relevant local codes.

• Proven ability to work collaboratively within multidisciplinary design teams.

Highly Desirable Expertise:

• Experience using Bentley MicroStation OpenBuildings Designer for electrical design within building environments.

• Experience delivering electrical design for large or complex facilities such as airports, transit hubs, data centers, civic buildings, or institutional campuses.

• Prior experience supporting public sector or transportation-related infrastructure projects.

Why Join Us?

You will join a collaborative engineering team delivering high-impact projects that shape public spaces and essential infrastructure across the region. This role offers the opportunity to:

• Work on high-profile civic and infrastructure projects.

• Contribute to technically complex facility designs.
