  • A people-focused culture that values technical excellence, collaboration, and continuous improvement
  • Opportunity to execute civil/structural scopes on multidisciplinary EPCM projects
  • Exposure to diverse facilities projects across Canada and international markets
  • A flexible and supportive work environment designed for long-term career growth

What You'll Do
As an Intermediate Civil / Structural Engineer, you will help deliver safe, constructible, and code-compliant designs. Your role will include:
Structural & Civil Design Support
  • Support the design and analysis of steel, concrete, and foundation systems for oil and gas facilities and related infrastructure
  • Prepare structural calculations, design checks, and supporting engineering documentation under supervision
  • Develop engineering sketches and markups for drafting/design staff to produce structural models and design drawings
  • Assist with material take-offs (MTOs), quantities, and work packages
Coordination & Team Collaboration
  • Coordinate with process, piping, mechanical, electrical, and instrumentation disciplines to gather inputs and resolve interface items
  • Participate in design reviews and incorporate feedback from senior engineers and other stakeholders
  • Communicate effectively with internal teams and, as appropriate, clients and vendors
Project Execution & Delivery
  • Support the delivery of civil/structural deliverables to meet scope, schedule, and quality requirements
  • Assist with procurement support activities (e.g., reviewing vendor data, responding to technical queries)
Construction & Field Support
  • Support responses to RFIs, field queries, and engineering clarifications during construction
  • Participate in site visits/inspections as required, with guidance from senior staff
Safety, Quality & Compliance
  • Follow engineering quality processes and support checking/verification practices
  • Help ensure designs align with applicable codes, standards, and project specifications (e.g., CSA, CISC, NBC, provincial codes)

About You
You are a developing civil/structural engineer who enjoys practical design work, learning from experienced engineers, and contributing to multidisciplinary projects. You bring:
  • Bachelor's degree in Civil/Structural Engineering (required)
  • P.Eng. registration/eligibility with APEGA (required)
  • 5-8 years of relevant civil/structural engineering experience (oil & gas facilities experience preferred but not required)
  • Strong communication, organization, and collaboration skills
  • A detail-oriented, analytical approach to problem-solving

Technical Foundation
  • Structural analysis/design exposure for steel and concrete structures
  • Understanding of loads, foundations, and connection concepts (bolted/welded)
  • Familiarity with industry design standards and drawing practices
  • Familiarity with Canadian design codes and standards, including the National Building Code of Canada, CSA S16, and CSA A23.3
  • Familiarity with US and/or Australian codes and standards would be an asset
Software Proficiency
