Original job description

Ready to lead projects, not just work on them?

You have built a strong foundation in electrical building systems. You can design, coordinate, solve problems, and deliver, but you may still be waiting for the opportunity to lead a project, advise clients, mentor others, or have a meaningful voice in how the work gets done.

At Sense Engineering, this role is designed for an engineer or designer who is ready for that next step. You will take greater ownership of projects, work directly with clients and decision-makers, guide junior team members, and contribute to the continued growth of our electrical practice. You will be supported by experienced professionals while being trusted to exercise your judgment, develop practical solutions, and build the leadership experience needed for the next stage of your career.

This is an opportunity to do more than advance financially. It is an opportunity to become a more complete consultant..

About Sense Engineering:

At Sense Engineering, we pride ourselves on exceeding client expectations through exceptional engineering services. We are committed to fostering a positive, supportive and collaborative work environment where every team member contributes to delivering solutions that make a meaningful impact. Sense Engineering has over 130 employees across North America, providing restoration, capital planning, structural, mechanical, building envelope, accessibility, and energy optimization services for buildings.

Position Overview:

As an Electrical Design Engineer (Intermediate), you will contribute to electrical building-system projects from initial investigation and scope development through design, construction, and completion. Your work may include electrical equipment and distribution assessments, lighting and lighting-control design, emergency power, life-safety and fire-alarm systems, building renewals and retrofits, energy optimization, system feasibility studies, and construction-phase services. This role is intended for someone who wants to move beyond a narrowly defined production position. Depending on your experience and goals, you will have opportunities to lead assignments, manage client relationships, develop fees and scopes, mentor junior team members, participate in proposals, and contribute to technical standards and quality processes.

General Responsibilities:

Attitude: Exhibit a positive attitude, strong work ethic, and team spirit. Take ownership of your work and focus on providing solutions.
Marketing: Represent Sense Engineering professionally, building positive relationships with clients, contractors and other consultants.
Knowledge Development: Enhance your understanding of electrical systems design, energy modelling, life cycle analysis and costing while sharing insights and lessons learned with the team.

Technical Responsibilities:

Perform analysis, design, modelling, and detailing for electrical building systems on a variety of construction, renewal, and retrofit projects.
Develop practical electrical solutions that respond to client objectives, existing-building conditions, applicable codes, constructability, energy performance, reliability, and lifecycle considerations.
Lead projects of increasing size and complexity from initial scope identification through construction completion, including work planning, coordination, technical reviews, schedule management, and client communication.
Prepare design reports, system comparisons, feasibility studies, electrical construction documents, equipment specifications, and opinions of probable cost.
Conduct site surveys, electrical assessments, and field reviews to document existing conditions and confirm that construction generally aligns with the design intent.
Coordinate electrical designs with architectural, mechanical, structural, civil, and other consulting disciplines.
Apply applicable electrical and building codes, standards, engineering principles, and internal quality requirements to project work.
Represent Sense in client meetings, project discussions, site meetings, and industry events with a commitment to responsive and professional service.
Provide guidance and technical oversight to junior engineers, designers, and technical staff assigned to project delivery.
Contribute to proposals, scope and fee development, internal knowledge sharing, technical standards, and the continued growth of the electrical practice.
Other duties as assigned/required.

What We’re Looking For:

Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from an accredited university or college, or certification as an electrical engineering technologist.
Approximately 5–10 years of relevant experience in electrical building-system assessment, design, coordination, or project delivery. We will consider candidates with different experience levels where capability and readiness for increased responsibility are demonstrated.
Registration, or active progress toward registration, with the Professional Engineers Ontario (PEO). Membership with the Ordre des ingénieurs du Québec (OIQ) is an asset.
Strong working knowledge of electrical and building codes, industry standards, engineering fundamentals, design practices, and quality requirements.
Proficiency in AutoCAD. Experience with Revit, BIM workflows, electrical analysis software, and energy-modelling coordination is an asset.
Experience preparing coordinated drawings, specifications, reports, and other technical deliverables for building projects.
Strong written and verbal communication skills, sound judgment, attention to detail, and a client-focused approach.
The ability to work collaboratively while independently managing priorities, commitments, and project responsibilities.
An interest in mentoring others, sharing knowledge, solving problems creatively, and contributing to a growing practice.
Valid driver’s license and access to reliable transportation required.

Why Join Sense Engineering?

Join a vibrant and supportive team of dedicated professionals who value collaboration and camaraderie - plus, we make time for fun with our monthly social events!
Work on impactful projects with leading clients and contractors.
Enjoy opportunities for professional development and knowledge sharing.
Base salary range is $85,000 to $105,000 (commensurate with experience).
This position is eligible for profit sharing bonuses based on company and individual performance, typically increasing the estimated total compensation range by 10% to 20%.
Eventual opportunities to purchase shares in a successful and growing company.
Comprehensive benefits package designed to support you and your family’s well-being, including a Health Care Spending Account and Wellness Account.

We appreciate the time and effort of all applicants, however only those selected for an interview will be contacted. Accommodations are available upon request for candidates participating in all stages of the selection process.
