Solve problems using a combination of standard procedures, modifications of standard procedures, or methods developed from previous assignments, referring unusual problems to senior engineers or specialists.
Participate in planning to achieve prescribed budget, schedule, and performance objectives.
Prepare progress reports, recommend changes in designs, estimate costs, and recommend payments for completed work.
Develop knowledge of related architectural and engineering disciplines, along with the relevant provincial Building Codes, Electrical Safety Codes and other standards.
Contact associates in other departments to discuss and advise on project requirements such as device locations, loads and circuitry.
Assist with various tasks and projects as assigned by supervisors or senior team members to support the overall success of the team and company objectives.
Demonstrate a strong commitment to our company values of quality, client focus, teamwork, sustainability, and community, integrating these principles into daily work practices and interactions with colleagues, clients, and stakeholders.
