We are seeking a highly accomplished and motivated Technical Tunnel Lead to join our growing Toronto-based tunnelling team. This is a unique opportunity to help shape the future of one of the most established and respected underground infrastructure practices in North America.

Champion excellence in underground engineering practice, codes, standards, quality assurance, and design governance.
Establish and improve engineering processes, systems, and best practices to support efficient and high-quality project execution.
Manage multidisciplinary design packages and collaborate with both internal and external stakeholders throughout project delivery.
Build and strengthen client relationships through regular engagement, progress reporting, and strategic project support.
Advance the team's capabilities through innovation, digital engineering, and the implementation of emerging technologies.
Mentor and develop junior and intermediate engineers, fostering technical growth and leadership capabilities across the team.
Support business development activities, major pursuits, and proposal submissions that continue to expand our tunnelling portfolio across North America.

Minimum 15 years of experience in the planning, design, and construction of tunnels, shafts, and underground structures.
Experience leading multidisciplinary tunnel design programs and coordinating complex project teams.
Direct experience supporting major transit and/or water/wastewater tunnel projects; experience in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area is considered an asset.
Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) designation in Ontario, or the ability to obtain registration within a short period.
Demonstrated expertise in underground engineering design standards, guidelines, and industry best practices.
Advanced understanding of geotechnical and structural design principles and underground construction methodologies.
Familiarity with geotechnical and structural numerical modelling software.
Exceptional leadership, communication, and relationship-building skills.
Proven ability to mentor, review, approve, and guide the work of engineering teams
