  • 7+ years of professional experience.

  • Knowledge of building codes and architectural project deliverables.

  • Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously in a deadline-driven environment.

  • Ability to work effectively with cross-functional teams, manage competing priorities, and deliver high-quality engineering packages under schedule constraints.

Preferred

  • Mining, mineral processing, metallurgical, chemical, or heavy industrial facility experience.

  • Proficiency in 2D and/or 3D design software such as AutoCAD and Revit with knowledge of rendering tools being a bonus.

Our culture is built on four principles:

Everyone Gets Home Safe. We never put speed or cost ahead of people.

Extreme Ownership. We take full responsibility for outcomes, relentlessly driving toward solutions.
