Job description

A Builder’s Role. A Seat on the Executive Team. An Opportunity to Make Your Mark.

Some opportunities allow you to manage a team. Others allow you to transform an entire function.

Our client is a fast-growing Quebec-based company currently experiencing significant expansion across Canada and the United States. To support this growth, the organization is seeking a leader capable of advancing its engineering function and increasing its visibility, influence, and strategic impact.

As Director of Engineering, you will be a member of the executive leadership team and play an active role in shaping the strategic decisions that will define the company’s future.

What Truly Sets This Opportunity Apart
  • You won’t just manage projects. You’ll influence the direction of the business.
    • Your expertise will be sought not only to guide technical decisions, but also to help shape business strategies and ensure the technical excellence of the solutions delivered.
  • You will lead and grow a team.
    • You will oversee a multidisciplinary group of engineers, designers, and specialized internal and external resources. Your mandate will include structuring processes, accelerating design activities, and developing talent to elevate the team’s performance to the next level.
  • You will operate in an international context.
    • Projects are deployed across Canada, the United States, and other global markets. You will collaborate with partners, consultants, and technical experts from various industries while supporting an expanding network of business partners.
  • You will be at the center of innovation.
    • The organization is actively investing in the modernization of its practices and the integration of new technologies. Automation, advanced digital tools, artificial intelligence, and process optimization will all be part of your reality.
Your Contribution
  • Provide leadership for the engineering function and technical teams;
  • Establish a clear vision, motivating objectives, and performance indicators;
  • Oversee the design and validation of technical solutions;
  • Ensure compliance with applicable standards, codes, and regulations;
  • Support sales teams on strategic projects and major proposals;
  • Strengthen collaboration between engineering, production, and operations;
  • Develop work methods that reduce design timelines and improve efficiency;
  • Act as a trusted advisor to partners, franchisees, and key stakeholders;
  • Contribute to the development of innovative technical approaches and solutions.

We Would Like to Meet a Leader Who:
  • Inspires and mobilizes teams;
  • Makes decisions confidently and efficiently;
  • Possesses strong business acumen;
  • Enjoys supporting growth and winning new opportunities;
  • Is recognized for their ability to structure, optimize, and improve;
  • Demonstrates curiosity toward innovation and emerging technologies;
  • Wants to have a meaningful impact on the future of an organization.
Compensation & Benefits
  • Base salary starting at $125,000+, depending on experience;
  • 20% annual bonus program;
  • Professional membership dues paid by the employer;
  • Four weeks of vacation plus additional time off during the holiday season;
  • Comprehensive group insurance plan;
  • RRSP with employer contribution;
  • $2,000 health spending account;
  • Flexible hybrid work environment;
  • Strategic position with strong visibility among senior leadership.

For an engineer who wants to exercise real influence, build a high-performing team, and contribute directly to the growth of an ambitious organization, this opportunity represents much more than a management position.
