This role is responsible for providing technical oversight and engineering support for shipboard instrumentation, automation, and operational technology (OT) systems across BC Ferries' fleet. As vessel systems become increasingly reliant on PLCs, HMIs, industrial networks, and engineering software, this position plays a critical role in ensuring system reliability, configuration control, cybersecurity, and lifecycle management. Working closely with internal stakeholders, contractors, shipyards, and regulatory bodies, you will help support safe and reliable operations while contributing to fleet modernization, standardization, refits, and continuous improvement initiatives.

Reporting to the Senior Engineering Manager, Electrical and Automation, you will be:

Defining technical requirements, acceptance criteria, and engineering standards while supporting equipment evaluation and standardization initiatives;
Performing verification and validation activities and providing engineering expertise for vessel automation systems;
Reviewing and overseeing contractor deliverables associated with vessel refits, dry dockings, and modernization projects;
Investigating technical failures, preparing engineering reports, and supporting root cause investigations, FMECA activities, and condition-based monitoring programs;
Conducting inspections and providing engineering support for vessel modifications and new construction projects;
Establishing and maintaining lifecycle controls for PLC and HMI software, firmware, documentation, network settings, and obsolescence planning;
Managing operational technology configurations, software changes, system backups, and recovery processes;
Reviewing PLC logic, alarms, interlocks, control narratives, and cause-and-effect sequences to support reliable vessel operations;
Supporting industrial communication networks and protocols including Modbus, Profibus, Profinet , Ethernet/IP, and CANbus;
Liaising with regulatory authorities, classification societies, shipyards, suppliers, and contractors;
Contributing to maintenance strategies, training initiatives, spare parts planning, and technical documentation development.

What You Bring To The Team

Bachelor's or master's degree in electrical, Electronics, or Computer Engineering or related fields
Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) designation or Engineer-in-Training (EIT) registration
Minimum 8 years of related engineering experience; postgraduate studies may be considered
Strong cybersecurity awareness related to operational technology environments
Experience working with industrial automation systems, including PLC-based controls, HMI/SCADA systems, system integration, software lifecycle management, firmware management, and backup/recovery processes
Experience designing, testing, troubleshooting, and supporting industrial Ethernet and fieldbus networks such as Modbus, Profibus, Profinet , and CANbus
Strong understanding of industrial communications, PLCs, HMIs, and variable frequency drives (VFDs)
Demonstrated analytical thinking, troubleshooting expertise, and sound engineering judgment with the ability to evaluate complex technical failures and recommend practical solutions
Excellent written and verbal communication skills with the ability to build collaborative relationships across operational and technical teams
Strong organizational skills, initiative, accountability, and the ability to manage competing priorities independently
Marine systems project experience is considered an asset
Knowledge of high-reliability or safety-critical systems and marine OT cybersecurity is considered an asset

Guided by a shared commitment to safety, service, inclusion, and local commitment, we offer meaningful work, opportunities for growth, and the chance to make a positive impact.

About Us

About Us: 

For 65 years, we have been dedicated to providing safe and efficient travel to our customers.
