Original job description

Our client is an established Canadian leader in engineered industrial automation, electrical power systems, and advanced motor control solutions. Serving some of North America's most demanding industrial sectors, the organization combines specialized engineering expertise, in-house manufacturing, systems integration, and comprehensive technical services to deliver customized solutions that improve operational efficiency, equipment reliability, and productivity.

Its capabilities span low- and medium-voltage power distribution, variable frequency drives (VFDs), motor control centres (MCCs), programmable logic controllers (PLCs), industrial networking, SCADA systems, motion control, and sophisticated automation technologies. From custom-engineered electrical equipment to fully integrated process control systems, the company supports projects throughout their lifecycle, including design, manufacturing, commissioning, modernization, and ongoing technical support.

With an established presence in the Canadian industrial marketplace and a diverse customer base across mining, forestry, pulp and paper, manufacturing, water and wastewater, marine, and critical infrastructure, the organization continues to invest in engineering innovation, technical capabilities, and operational excellence.

This is an opportunity to join a technically sophisticated business where engineering plays a central role in customer success, product development, and long-term organizational growth.

We are seeking an accomplished Engineering Manager to lead and further develop a multidisciplinary engineering team specializing in electrical power systems, industrial automation, and advanced motor control technologies. Based in the Greater Vancouver Area, this senior leadership role will oversee the design, integration, standardization, and delivery of complex industrial electrical and automation solutions that support customers across multiple industries and geographic markets.

The successful candidate will combine strong technical expertise in low- and medium-voltage electrical systems with proven engineering leadership capabilities. They will develop engineering talent, establish technical standards, improve project execution, and support the continued expansion of the organization's engineering capabilities. This position offers significant influence over engineering strategy, technical innovation, and organizational development, with a clear path to broader engineering leadership.

Provide technical leadership for the design and integration of low- and medium-voltage electrical power systems, including MCCs, switchgear, VFDs, soft starters, and associated equipment.
Oversee engineered motor control solutions for demanding industrial applications, including high-horsepower systems and complex operating environments.
Guide engineering decisions involving power quality, harmonic mitigation, arc-flash protection, system reliability, and electrical safety.
Ensure equipment designs meet customer specifications, operating requirements, and applicable electrical standards.

Industrial Automation & Systems Integration

Direct engineering activities involving PLC, HMI, SCADA, industrial networking, and integrated process control systems.
Oversee the integration of electrical power equipment with industrial automation platforms and plant-wide control networks.
Support the development of standardized control architectures, engineering documentation, and reusable design methodologies.
Evaluate emerging technologies in intelligent motor control, predictive maintenance, industrial connectivity, and data-driven process optimization.

Engineering Operations & Project Execution

Provide technical oversight for complex engineering projects, from initial design and equipment selection through manufacturing, testing, commissioning, and customer acceptance.
Collaborate with project management, manufacturing, procurement, field service, and commercial teams to ensure successful project delivery.
Establish consistent engineering procedures, quality standards, and technical review processes.
Support engineering resource planning, project scheduling, technical risk assessment, and continuous improvement initiatives.
Provide senior-level technical guidance for equipment modernization, troubleshooting, reliability improvements, and complex customer applications.

Technical Governance & Strategic Development

Develop and maintain engineering standards, design practices, and technical documentation across electrical and automation disciplines.
Ensure compliance with applicable CSA, UL, IEEE, IEC, and other relevant electrical and industry standards.
