Job description
The Role

Our Vancouver office is growing quickly, and we're looking for a Senior Engineer to join us and lead the team.

The office is already built: eight people in Vancouver, a team of six reporting to you, and years of client relationships already in place. This isn't a seat you have to build from nothing - it's a great team and a cool office that's already running, and the job is to step in and keep it growing.

This is a player-coach seat, not a pure design chair. You'd own the technical work, lead the team, and grow the book of business, with a fast track to Principal Engineer for the right person.

What You'll Own

  • Your team's book of work, its revenue and its profitability
  • Selling and growing that book of work in the Lower Mainland and around BC
  • Stamping drawings as Engineer of Record, and leading design and deliverables
  • Being the main point of contact for your clients, and owning their satisfaction
  • Team and project resource management
  • Managing the project managers and engineers on your team, and growing them

Day to day that looks like leading custom HVAC and energy recovery projects from first site visit to commissioning: scoping systems and selecting equipment, building detailed energy models, working with manufacturers on performance specifications, pricing work with contractors and explaining the specification, presenting to clients, and being on site when the carbon reduction system becomes real.

What We're Looking For

  • P.Eng
  • Senior experience in energy recovery, HVAC, boilers, and building mechanical systems
  • Experience with Fortis BC and BC Hydro energy studies
  • A track record of leading people and running projects, not just designing them
  • Comfortable in front of clients, and interested in winning work rather than waiting for it
  • Strong written and verbal communication
  • Strong team leadership
  • Solid grounding in thermodynamics, this work rewards people who genuinely understand the cycle
  • Genuinely cares about reducing greenhouse gas emissions
  • Ability to travel around BC and Alberta

Nice to have: experience with energy studies and grant applications, and Revit.
