In this role, you will:

  • Coordinate with suppliers and vendors to specify and procure components.
  • Develop and execute commissioning and testing plans both in-house and onsite.
  • Contribute to repeatable design workflows and support innovation, pilot projects, and new product development.
  • Maintain comprehensive project documentation and strong internal relationships.
  • Provide hands-on support during commissioning and troubleshooting.
  • Travel occasionally to customer sites for start-up and commissioning.
  • Grow into a subject matter expert while sharpening your technical and project leadership skills.

You will be a great fit if you have:

  • A degree in Electrical Engineering.
  • Registered (or eligible to register) as a Professional Engineer with EGBC.
  • 1 - 4 years of relevant experience in an industrial or plant-based environment.
  • Proven ability to deliver engineering projects in fast-paced settings.
  • Strong communication skills and experience working in multidisciplinary teams.
  • Knowledge of Canadian or US Electrical Codes.
  • Project management experience is an asset.
  • Experience with electrical schematic design tools (e.g., EPLAN, AutoCAD) and/or medium voltage applications is a plus.

Why join Saltworks?

We have an outstanding team that is passionate about innovation and solving key environmental challenges facing our planet.

Join a team pioneering the future of water and lithium. Some of our customers include world-leading electric vehicle makers, semiconductor firms, mining companies, agriculture firms, and more!

We offer:

  • A diverse and inclusive team that is key to our success.
  • A competitive compensation package that includes medical, dental, vision, RRSP matching, life insurance, AD&D coverage, and an education allowance.
  • A culture that supports safety, innovation, learning, diversity, and teamwork.
  • Fun social activities and company events.
