We are seeking an experienced and motivated Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) to help grow our presence in Alberta. The successful candidate will play a key role in delivering building code and fire and life safety consulting services, managing projects, supporting clients, and mentoring junior staff.

The position will initially be hybrid or predominantly remote; however, candidates should expect a gradual transition to greater in-office presence as the team expands, reflecting JS Held’s commitment to the benefits of in-person collaboration, mentorship, and training.

Key Responsibilities

Provide building code, fire and life safety consulting services for a broad range of development projects, including Part 3 and Part 9 buildings under Division B of the applicable Building Code.

Review design documents and liaise with project teams to identify risks, opportunities, and code-related considerations throughout design and construction.
Prepare code analyses, approaches to code compliance, building code reports, alternative solutions, and other project deliverables.
Build strong working relationships with clients, architects, engineers, contractors, developers, and AHJs to support project success from concept through completion.
Manage multiple projects concurrently, including scope, schedules, budgets, deliverables, and client communication.
Participate in design workshops, AHJ meetings, site visits, field reviews, and construction-phase support activities.
Provide mentorship and technical guidance to junior team members while supporting their professional growth.
Apply sound professional judgment and take ownership of technical recommendations and project deliverables.
Support business development and continued practice growth through client relationship management, proposal preparation, industry engagement, marketing and educational activities, and thought leadership.

Qualifications

Required Qualifications:

Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Fire Protection Engineering, or a related discipline.
5+ years of experience in building code consulting, fire protection engineering, architecture, building science, or a related field.

Strong working knowledge of the National Building Code - Alberta Edition, particularly Part 3 and Part 9 requirements, and fire and life safety principles, including occupant safety, exiting, spatial separations, fire-resistance ratings, and fire protection systems.
Experience conducting building code reviews, interpreting architectural and engineering drawings, and preparing technical reports, analyses, compliance documentation, alternative solutions, and performance-based code compliance strategies.
Experience supporting projects through planning, design, permitting, construction, and occupancy, including site inspections and coordination with AHJs.
Experience collaborating with developers, architects, engineers, contractors, and regulatory authorities, while managing multiple concurrent projects and client relationships.
Excellent analytical, problem-solving, organizational, project management, written, and verbal communication skills, including technical report writing and client-facing presentations.
Proficiency with Microsoft 365 applications, including Word, Excel, Outlook, and Teams.

Preferred Qualifications:

Experience with a broad range of building types, including Part 3 and Part 9 buildings.
Experience presenting technical code positions to municipalities and regulatory authorities.
Experience with fire engineering analyses, performance-based design, and alternative solutions.
Certified Professional (CP) experience or equivalent municipal approval experience.
Existing relationships within the Alberta development, architectural, engineering, and regulatory communities.
