Archived listing. The details below describe a past opening.

At Eigenspace, we help shape resilient infrastructure and thriving communities. Our projects improve how people live, move, and connect - and our people are at the heart of what we do. We foster a culture that prioritizes collaboration, innovation, ownership, and continuous learning, giving every team member the opportunity to grow their careers while making a real impact in local communities. When you join our team, you'll work alongside talented engineers, technologists, planners, and surveyors on impactful municipal infrastructure and land development projects.

We're looking for a seasoned civil designer to join our team. If you enjoy shaping land development projects through all phases of design and delivery while working closely with project managers and civil engineers, then this opportunity might be for you!

Here's how you'll be making an impact:

  • Collaborate on land development projects (grading, underground, surface, stormwater systems, and shallow utilities)
  • Use Civil 3D to model, draft, estimate, and support reporting
  • Coordinate with engineering teams to produce accurate, compliant drawing packages
  • Prepare designs from concept to construction-ready stages
  • Communicate with municipal and provincial authorities for permits and technical requirements
  • Contribute to process improvements and design standards
  • Deliver designs for residential and commercial developments
  • Perform engineering calculations and support QA reviews
  • Ensure timely, high-quality project completion

Here's what we are looking for:

  • A degree or diploma in civil engineering, engineering design technology, or in a similar field
  • Expertise in working with Autodesk Civil3D Points, Alignments, Profiles, Pipe Networks, Feature Lines, and Grading. Knowledge of Civil3D Corridors is an asset.
  • Knowledge of sewer flow calculations, rational method analysis, and other flow calculation techniques applicable to private land development projects. SWMM modelling experience is an asset.
  • Familiarity with the current City of Edmonton/EPCOR design and construction standards documentation and an understanding of their impact on private development engineering design submissions. Knowledge of other municipal standards in the greater Edmonton area (i.e. St. Albert, Strathcona County, etc.) is an asset.
  • Experience in effectively addressing municipal comments (the City, EPCOR, etc.) on engineering drawing submissions, including collaborating with municipal reviewers to achieve approved practical design solutions.
  • Ability to think on your feet and provide support to field staff while your designs are under construction, including prompt redline drawing preparation and/or confirming that any proposed “field-fit’ adjustments are feasible.
  • 8+ years of hands-on experience designing drawings for land development projects throughout the entire project cycle (from concept through to construction-ready designs)
  • Superior teamwork, collaboration, and problem-solving skills.
  • Strong analytical and technical skills
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office suite, including Teams
  • Keen attention to detail
  • Agility and ability to juggle multiple projects at a time
  • Ability to work independently with minimal supervision and as part of a multidisciplinary team of engineers
  • Good time management skills

What we offer:

  • Competitive salary and benefits package
  • Opportunities for professional development and career advancement
  • Vehicle allowance (where applicable)
  • Health benefits
  • Flexible working hours
  • Endless opportunities to learn and grow

Submit your resume and cover letter to careers@eigenspace.ca to be considered for this role.
