Structural Engineer – Junior / Intermediate

Build Your Career with EngWest Solutions

EngWest Solutions Inc. is a growing engineering consulting firm specializing in marine, bulk materials handling, and heavy industrial infrastructure throughout British Columbia.

We're looking for an ambitious Junior to Intermediate Structural Engineer who wants more than a traditional consulting role. If you're looking for an opportunity to take ownership of your work, accelerate your professional development, and help build a company from the ground up, we'd like to hear from you.

As one of the early members of our team, you'll have the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on the company while developing the technical, field, and project management experience that will shape your career.

A Different Kind of Engineering Firm

At EngWest, we believe great engineering starts with understanding our clients' businesses. We pride ourselves on being responsive, practical, and easy to work with. Our clients trust us because we provide technically sound solutions, communicate clearly, and respond quickly when challenges arise.

We also believe engineers grow fastest when they're trusted with meaningful responsibility. At EngWest, your career won't be limited by your job title. If you're ready to take on more responsibility, we'll help you earn it.

Unlike larger firms, where engineers can be confined to a narrow role or a small part of a project, our engineers are encouraged to be involved in every stage of project delivery. You'll have opportunities to participate in business development, client meetings, site investigations, inspections, engineering analysis and design, project management, construction support, and project closeout.

As your experience and confidence grow, so will your responsibilities. With mentorship from experienced engineers and exposure to a diverse range of projects, you'll develop the technical expertise, practical field experience, leadership skills, and business understanding needed to become a well-rounded consulting engineer.

Our objective is to develop exceptional engineers who are equally comfortable in the field, in the office, and across the table from a client. Whether your long-term goal is technical specialization, project management, or leadership, we'll provide the experience and support to help you get there.

Diverse Projects, Real Experience

Our work spans a broad range of industries, including:

• Marine terminals and waterfront infrastructure
• Bulk material handling systems
• Aggregate and ready-mix facilities
• Industrial plants and processing facilities

You'll work on projects from concept through construction, gaining experience that few engineers receive early in their careers.

Responsibilities

Depending on your experience and interests, you may be involved in:

• Structural engineering design
• Site inspections and field investigations
• Engineering calculations and technical analysis
• Preparation of reports, drawings, and specifications
• Construction reviews and field engineering support
• Client meetings and technical presentations
• Project coordination and scheduling
• Developing practical engineering solutions for industrial clients
• Supporting business development and long-term client relationships

Qualifications

We're looking for engineers who are technically capable, motivated, and eager to learn.

Qualifications include:

• Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering with a structural focus
• EIT or P.Eng. registration with Engineers and Geoscientists BC, or eligibility for registration
• 2–6 years of relevant consulting or industrial experience
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills
• Practical problem-solving abilities and a willingness to work in the field
• Valid Class 5 driver's licence and willingness to travel throughout British Columbia as required. Most travel will be in the metro Vancouver area.

Experience with industrial facilities, structural steel, concrete, marine structures, conveyors, heavy equipment, or bulk materials handling is considered an asset but is not required.

What We Offer

• Competitive salary of $70,000–$90,000, depending on experience
• Professional mentorship and support toward P.Eng. registration
• Exposure to diverse engineering projects and industries
• Significant responsibility and opportunities for career growth
• Direct access to senior engineers and company leadership
• A collaborative, entrepreneurial work environment where your ideas matter
• The opportunity to help shape a growing engineering firm from its early stages

Join Our Team

If you're looking for a career where you'll do more than sit behind a desk, where you'll visit project sites, work directly with clients, solve challenging engineering problems, and grow into a well-rounded consulting engineer, we'd like to hear from you.
