Participate in site visits, inspections, and commissioning activities to ensure design intent is achieved.
Apply industry standards, codes, and best practices to deliver compliant, high‑quality solutions.
Provide mentorship and technical guidance to intermediate and junior engineers, supporting team growth and capability development.
Engage directly with clients, contractors, and internal partners to solve complex technical challenges and advance project delivery.

The Skills That Set You Apart

University Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering or related.
At least 15+years of experience in the design and engineering of material handling systems in mining and heavy industrial projects.
Strong knowledge of conveyors, lifting equipment, automated systems, or bulk material handling.
You hold (or are eligible for) a Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) designation in Canada.
You bring proven experience solving real‑world engineering challenges, from equipment specification to system design and integration.
You’re comfortable working in the field or onsite as needed and adhere to all safety requirements.
You have working proficiency with mechanical design and modeling tools and continuously grow your technical toolkit.
