Senior Civil/Structural Engineer
Contract (12 months)
Bowmanville/Mississauga Ontario (Onsite)
The global energy transition is upon us. As we shift to a low carbon world, meeting the growing demand for energy will require revolutionary thinking and a variety of resources. While the market is challenging, these challenges present the biggest opportunities, and catalysts for change.
In the nuclear sector, we are busier than ever. We believe in the power of this carbon-free power source in our fight to tackle climate change. Our teams are supporting the nuclear power renaissance with projects supporting existing plants, small and advanced modular reactor designs, nuclear sustainability for waste processing and volume reduction, long-term storage, and fusion energy development – to name just a few.
If you’re an entrepreneur with a technical soul, we want to hear from you. Join our team today and help make a consequential difference!
You will be a part of our growing nuclear team where we ensure world-class project delivery through the skills of our people, methodologies, governance, and systems. Responsibilities and duties will include, but not be limited to:
- Lead and deliver civil/structural engineering design and analysis for nuclear facilities, including safety-related and non-safety-related structures
- Prepare engineering work packages ensuring budgets and schedules are met
- Define civil/structural project requirements as they relate to scope, cost and schedule
- Develop and/or review civil/structural deliverables such as design basis documents, structural calculations, drawings, technical specifications, datasheets, and foundation, embedment, anchorage, and pipe/equipment support designs
- Apply nuclear codes and standards (e.g., CSA, ACI, AISC, ASCE, ASME) in regulated environments
- Perform seismic analysis and qualification of structures, systems and components
- Support refurbishment and life-extension scopes, including structural condition assessments, concrete aging management, and field engineering
- Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams (mechanical, electrical, seismic, geotechnical, and construction)
- Provide technical oversight, checking, and mentoring of junior and intermediate engineers
- Provide input to engineering, operating and capital cost estimates
- Actively manage relationships with clients and vendors
