Description & Requirements

Mechanical & Piping Engineer

Location: Montreal, QC

Type: Permanent Full-time

This job posting is also available in English. Both postings are for the same position.

Primero Americas is currently looking for a Mechanical & Piping Engineer to join our growing team.
This is a unique opportunity to be part of Primero’s continued growth in North America. Founded in Australia in 2011, Primero has been steadily expanding in Montreal since 2016, with further growth in Houston (2022) and Toronto (2023). We specialize in the design, procurement, and construction management of mineral processing plants.

The Mechanical & Piping Engineer will play a key role in delivering mechanical engineering design and technical support for studies and detailed engineering projects within the mining and heavy industrial sectors. This role reports directly to the Lead Discipline Mechanical.

Working as part of a multidisciplinary team, the successful candidate will contribute to the development of mechanical systems with a strong focus on material handling systems, platework design, plant layout, and piping coordination. This role offers the opportunity to be involved throughout the full project lifecycle - from studies and design development through procurement, construction, and commissioning.

The role is ideal for a hands-on and adaptable engineer who enjoys working across both mechanical and piping-related scopes, collaborating with internal teams, clients, vendors, and site personnel to deliver high-quality engineering solutions in a fast-paced EPCM environment.

At Primero, we value efficiency, accountability, and integrity - and we take pride in delivering high-quality work in a collaborative and down-to-earth environment.

Key Responsibilities:

Deliver mechanical engineering design and calculations for mining and heavy industrial projects, with a strong focus on material handling systems, plant layout, platework, conveyors, pumps, and related equipment
Contribute to the development and coordination of 3D plant layouts in collaboration with piping, structural, electrical, and process disciplines
Support piping design and coordination activities, including routing, layout integration, and interdisciplinary coordination
Prepare and review engineering deliverables such as datasheets, specifications, calculations, scopes of work, equipment lists, schematics, and technical reports
Coordinate with vendors, clients, designers, and multidisciplinary teams throughout design and procurement phases
Support and guide designers/drafters in the development of plant and system designs using 2D and 3D CAD tools
Participate in technical bid evaluations, vendor reviews, and equipment selection activities
Review client specifications and technical documentation to support practical, efficient, and maintainable design solutions
Recommend design improvements to optimize quality, operability, and project execution
Support project execution activities including field support, installation, commissioning, and troubleshooting when required
Contribute across both mechanical and piping-related scopes depending on project and business needs

What we’re looking for:

Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering
Member of a Professional Engineering association (or eligible for registration), with preference given to candidates eligible for the OIQ
3 to 7 years of experience in a similar role within the mineral processing or mining sectors, with experience in heavy industrial plant environments considered an asset
Experience supporting detailed engineering, construction, and commissioning activities, including onsite exposure
Strong experience with plant layout and material handling systems in mining or industrial environments
Good understanding of piping systems design and interdisciplinary coordination
Experience preparing mechanical engineering deliverables for engineering studies and projects
Solid understanding of applicable engineering standards, codes, and regulations
Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, schematics, and technical documentation
Curious, motivated, and eager to continue learning and developing your skills
Humble, collaborative, and open to feedback, with a team-first mindset
Comfortable working in a collaborative environment where technical discussions and team exchanges are part of day-to-day work
Excellent communication skills (oral and written)
Proactive and solutions-oriented, with the ability to adapt to changing priorities and project needs
Well organized, detail-oriented, and focused on delivering high-quality work
Comfortable managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced project environment
Analytical and capable of solving complex technical problems
Accountable and results-driven, with a strong sense of ownership over your work
Able to deliver quality work within project schedules and budgets

Assets

Exposure to flotation and DMS plants, slurry and liquid pumping systems, and bulk materials handling
Experience with platework design and material handling equipment such as chutes, bins, hoppers, and transfer points
Experience working in an EPCM environment, particularly with piping layout integration and coordination
Familiarity with CAD software and 3D model navigation tools such as AutoCAD and plant design software

Position details:

40 hours per week
Applicants must have legal authorization to work in Canada
Competitive salary tailored to your skills and experience
Full insurance coverage paid by Primero from day one
Retirement plan with employer matching contribution
Up to 10 Paid sick days per year
Coffee, tea, and fresh fruit available daily
Flexible, possibility of hybrid work schedule
Modern offices in the heart of downtown Montreal
