Original job description

Lead Electrical Engineer

Natural Forces Solar | Dartmouth, Nova Scotia | Hybrid

Natural Forces Solar has spent two years building a portfolio of community-scale solar projects across Canada. Now it has to build them. We're looking for the senior electrical engineer who will own that work from concept to construction.

Hawthorne Recruitment is leading this search on behalf of Natural Forces Solar.

The role

You'll join a five-person engineering team as its senior electrical voice: player-coach and Engineer of Record. The Director of Engineering keeps some projects. You own the others, and you work as technical peers.

About half your time is hands-on engineering. The other half is directing and checking the team's work. This is not a people-management role.

What you bring

A degree in electrical engineering
6+ years of electrical design in solar, renewables, power systems, utilities, consulting or industrial work
A track record of taking early-stage concepts to IFC drawings
Power system study experience, ideally in ETAP
Working knowledge of CSA C22.1, C22.3 and IEEE standards
Experience checking others' engineering and mentoring junior staff

What you’ll own

Detailed electrical design from concept to IFC: single-line diagrams, protection and control, grounding, specifications and drawings
Engineer of Record on your share of the portfolio
Power system studies in ETAP, run yourself or coached through the team
Technical direction and review for EITs, a newly licensed P.Eng and co-op students
Equipment selection and technical bid evaluation
Construction and commissioning support, including RFIs, submittals and utility witness testing

On licensure. P.Eng with Engineers Nova Scotia is preferred, not required. If you already work at this level and are progressing toward Canadian licensure, we want to hear from you. Natural Forces will support your registration.

Strong assets

SCADA design and commissioning
Battery energy storage
French, with the ability to practise in Quebec

Why this role

Your designs become community-owned generation on real grids.
You set how a capable, keen team does detailed design for years to come.
Today's pipeline is a foothold into larger projects already coming into view.
A path to broader engineering leadership as the team grows.

The Details

Location: Burnside, Dartmouth, NS. Hybrid, with Mondays in the office

Start: November to December 2026, Allowing for notice periods

Site time: Two to three days a month, during construction. Commissioning runs two to three weeks on site.

Travel: Mostly within Nova Scotia, Quebec projects start in 2027

Reports to: Director of Engineering, Five-person engineering team

This is a lean team that is always doing something new. If you need a deep bench of drafters and a fixed playbook, this isn't it. If you want your judgment to shape how things get built, let's talk.

Apply today through LinkedIn or reach out directly. All conversations are confidential. Natural Forces Solar welcomes applicants of every background. If this role excites you but you don't meet every requirement, apply anyway.
