Original job description

Construction Resident Engineer – Mechanical

Location: Northern Ontario – Remote Mining Site

Rotation: 8 days on / 6 days off

Employment Type: Independent Contractor

Contract: Initial 1-year term with potential extension

Position Overview

We are seeking an experienced Construction Resident Engineer – Mechanical to support a major capital project for a leading Canadian mining operator.

This is a field-focused role combining mechanical engineering, construction execution, contractor coordination, and project controls. Working closely with Construction, Engineering, Project Controls, Contract Administration, QA/QC, and contractor teams, the Resident Engineer will provide technical support in the field while contributing to the management and monitoring of construction progress, schedule, costs, manpower/resources, change management, and contractor performance.

The ideal candidate will bring strong hands-on mechanical construction experience together with an understanding of the commercial and project-controls aspects of field execution.

Key Responsibilities

Field Engineering & Construction Execution

Maintain a strong daily presence in the field and conduct regular site walks and inspections.
Monitor mechanical construction activities to ensure work is completed in accordance with IFC drawings, specifications, applicable codes, project standards, and design intent.
Provide real-time technical support and resolve field engineering and constructability issues.
Support the installation and construction of mechanical equipment, piping, and heavy-industrial infrastructure.
Review drawings, specifications, and field conditions and provide technical clarification to contractors.
Evaluate field deviations and proposed technical solutions and coordinate with the appropriate engineering disciplines when required.
Act as a technical interface between Engineering and Construction.

Contractor Management & Coordination

Maintain direct and frequent communication with contractors and subcontractors to support field execution.
Monitor contractor performance, productivity, progress, and compliance with project requirements.
Work closely with contractor supervision to identify execution issues and support timely resolution.
Participate in daily planning and construction coordination activities.
Coordinate construction priorities, available resources, and upcoming work fronts.
Maintain effective and professional working relationships with contractors, field supervision, and project stakeholders.

Project Controls, Cost & Resource Coordination

Verify physical construction progress, installed quantities, and percentage completion in the field.
Support verification of contractor progress-payment claims by confirming that reported work has been physically completed and meets required quality standards.
Support cost tracking, forecasting, and evaluation of construction-related costs.
Provide technical and field justification for change orders and assess contractor change proposals.
Monitor contractor manpower, man-hours, and resource deployment against planned construction activities.
Support manpower and resource coordination based on upcoming construction requirements.
Participate in the coordination of contractor work schedules and shift requirements as required by site execution.
Identify cost, resource, productivity, or progress issues that could affect project performance.

Schedule & Progress Management

Monitor construction progress against the project schedule and identify potential delays or constraints.
Review contractor short-term and three-week look-ahead schedules.
Assess whether drawings, materials, RFIs, inspections, and other prerequisites are available to support planned activities.
Identify engineering and construction bottlenecks affecting schedule performance.
Provide field and technical input into construction sequencing and recovery plans.
Support schedule development and updates using actual field progress and execution information.
Participate in construction progress meetings with contractors and project leadership.

Contract Administration & Change Management

Review contractor RFIs and provide technical input or coordinate responses with the design team.
Review contractor shop drawings, equipment data, material submittals, and method statements.
Document field conditions supporting potential change orders.
Evaluate the technical validity and scope of contractor change requests.
Issue or support site instructions and ensure field decisions and changes are appropriately documented.
Maintain accurate records to support contract administration and claims management.

Quality Assurance / Quality Control

Work closely with site QA/QC personnel to ensure mechanical installations meet project specifications and applicable standards.
Review Inspection and Test Plans (ITPs) and participate in required hold and witness points.
Review NCRs and provide or recommend appropriate technical dispositions.
Verify materials, equipment, and supporting documentation against project requirements.
Assess workmanship, equipment alignment, piping installation, and other mechanical construction activities.
Support testing, inspection, commissioning, and turnover activities.

Health, Safety & Environment

Promote and support project HSE requirements and a strong safety culture.
Participate in pre-task planning and review contractor plans for higher-risk construction activities.
Identify unsafe conditions and intervene or escalate when required.
Ensure construction activities comply with site procedures, permits, and applicable environmental requirements.

Qualifications & Experience

Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering.
P.Eng. designation preferred.
Approximately 8–10+ years of progressive engineering and construction experience, ideally within mining, mineral processing, heavy industrial, oil & gas, power, or comparable capital-project environments.
Strong hands-on experience supporting mechanical construction in the field.
Demonstrated experience working directly with construction contractors, supervisors, and field crews.
Experience with mechanical equipment, piping, and heavy-industrial installations.
Strong understanding of drawings, specifications, construction sequencing, and field engineering.
Experience with RFIs, submittals, NCRs, field changes, and change orders.
Experience verifying construction progress, quantities, and/or contractor progress-payment claims.
Experience with construction schedules, look-ahead planning, and progress tracking.
Exposure to construction cost/budget management, manpower planning, man-hours, and resource coordination is strongly preferred.
Experience managing a mechanical construction package or acting as an owner's/site engineering representative is considered a strong asset.
Mining or mineral-processing construction experience is strongly preferred.
Strong communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to collaborate effectively across Engineering, Construction, Project Controls, and contractor teams.
Comfortable working independently in an active construction environment and on a rotational schedule at a remote Northern Ontario site.
