Key Responsibilities:

  • Develop compliant electrical concepts, layouts, and equipment selections
  • Oversee junior staff calculations and technical work
  • Participate in site reviews, submittals, RFIs, and change documentation
  • Lead meetings and document project decisions
  • Mentor junior team members through technical guidance

Requirements:

  • Advanced project lifecycle and internal coordination knowledge
  • Strong technical judgment and problem-solving capability
  • Clear written, verbal, and client-facing communication
  • Strong organization and time-management skills
  • Ability to communicate requirements to project partners

Combine electrical design, construction administration, mentorship, and client communication to support Smith + Andersen’s Ottawa project teams.
