• Participate in the Bid / Evaluate / Award process, including development of Request for Quotation (RFQ) packages, bid evaluations, and Bill of Material (BOM) entry into Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software.
• Check vessel, structural steel, piping spooling, assembly, and civil drawings for accuracy, constructability, and compliance with standards.
• Participate in 3D model reviews and construction planning meetings to support efficient fabrication and installation.
• Coordinate and review the compilation of Project Data and Operating Manuals for distribution to the project team and client.
• Perform shop inspections and resolve Nonconformance Reports (NCRs) in collaboration with fabrication and quality teams.
• Review ship‑loose lists to ensure all materials and components are correctly identified and prepared for shipment.
• Resolve field Requests for Information (RFIs) by working with engineering, construction, and client teams to provide clear guidance.
• Supervise junior or co‑op student project engineers on a task‑level basis, providing direction, coaching, and technical support.
• Engage with clients and internal teams to facilitate project completion across multiple ongoing and upcoming projects.

• Registered Engineer‑in‑Training or Professional Engineer, or in the process of registration, and in good standing with the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of Alberta (APEGA).
• Minimum of 3 years of oil and gas industry experience, preferably in project engineering roles.
• Undergraduate degree in Civil, Mechanical, or Chemical Engineering from an accredited university.
