Job description

Are you an experienced Marine Structural Engineer looking to progress your career? We're looking for a Senior Marine Structural Engineer to join our growing team. We are open to filling this position in any of our Atlantic Canada offices including Fredericton, Moncton, Saint John, Grand Falls, Bathurst, Halifax or St. John’s.

At GEMTEC, we offer something different. We’re an employee-owned, 400-person multidisciplinary consulting firm—not too big, not too small. We’re large enough to compete head-to-head with publicly traded engineering giants, but still small enough to maintain the culture and flexibility of a close-knit team.

Our size and hands-on management style let us move quickly, embrace new opportunities, and empower our people to shape their own careers—without getting lost in corporate bureaucracy.

A typical day on the job might look like:

  • Providing engineering designs for civil infrastructure projects (ports, harbours and bridges)
  • Working with diverse teams of discipline managers, engineers, designers and technicians
  • Managing projects and being responsible for completion on schedule and financial performance
  • Acting as a technical resource and as a mentor to junior/intermediate staff
  • Writing, compiling and reviewing technical reports
  • Preparing fee proposals
  • Being a member of site visit teams, gathering information as required to complement design activities
  • Maintaining quality throughout a project and implement improvements when determined
  • Preparing regular project summary reports
  • Encouraging growth within the group and increasing the general knowledge base throughout the company
  • Developing and sustaining long-lasting business relationships with clients
  • Identifying and mitigating potential hazards in the field or onsite, promoting a safe working environment.

The good stuff you get:

  • Full time permanent salaried position
  • Employee owned company with future potential to be a shareholder
  • Year end profit sharing bonus
  • Health and dental benefits
  • Matching RRSP employer contributions up to 5%
  • Paid time off (vacation starting at 3 weeks per year and 2 weeks of sick time)
  • Office year-end closure (paid time off between Christmas and New Years)
  • Work/life balance including a 37.5 hour work week and flexible working arrangements including hybrid options.
  • Growth and development opportunities as we work on a large variety of projects so you can build your skills and experience.

Your qualifications and what you bring:

  • Bachelor’s degree in civil engineering from an accredited University
  • Minimum of 12 years of experience in civil engineering including specific expertise in marine structures.
  • Adaptability to represent GEMTEC professionally with clients, developers, or contractors
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills needed to convey technical ideas clearly
  • Eligibility to register or are currently registered as a Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) with one or more of the Atlantic provinces
  • Proven ability to manage projects
  • Ability to obtain security clearance
  • Valid driver’s license
