About the Role

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Senior Electrical Engineer to join our dynamic team. This is an exciting opportunity for an individual who thrives on complex challenges, possesses a deep understanding of electrical systems, and is passionate about contributing to the creation of world-class installations.

Responsibilities

• Lead the design, development, and implementation of complex electrical and control systems for new projects and existing system upgrades.
• Ensure all electrical designs and installations comply with the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) and other relevant North American electrical codes and standards (e.g., NFPA 70/NEC).
• Develop comprehensive power distribution system designs, including low and medium-voltage applications, ensuring efficiency, reliability, and safety.
• Conduct thorough technical risk assessments for electrical and control systems, identifying potential hazards and implementing effective mitigation strategies.
• Collaborate with multi-disciplinary teams (mechanical, software, project management) to ensure seamless integration of electrical systems.
• Oversee the selection, specification, and procurement of electrical components and equipment.
• Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior engineers and technicians.
• Participate in all phases of projects, from conceptual design through commissioning and ongoing support.
• Maintain accurate documentation, including schematics, wiring diagrams, and project reports.

Requirements

• Proficiency in the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) and associated Canadian standards.
• Expert-level proficiency in power distribution systems design, including single-line diagrams, panelboard schedules, and conduit/cable sizing.
• Expert in system-level design for electrical and control systems, including PLC-based control, motor control, and sensor integration.
• Strong working knowledge of technical risk assessment methodologies and tools.
• Demonstrated experience with electrical safety standards and best practices.
• Solid understanding of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) principles and design considerations.
• Proficiency with electrical design software (e.g., AutoCAD Electrical, EPLAN, ETAP).
• Experience with control panel design and layout.
• Excellent problem-solving, analytical, and critical thinking skills.
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to effectively collaborate with diverse teams and stakeholders.
• Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
• Working knowledge of North American electrical codes and standards (e.g., NFPA 70/National Electrical Code, UL standards).
• Experience with medium voltage (MV) design and installation.
• Functional Safety Certification (e.g., TUV FSE, CFSE).
• Prior experience in the amusement rides industry or other highly regulated industries (e.g., automotive, aerospace, heavy machinery).
• Experience with industrial network protocols (e.g., EtherNet/IP, Profinet, Modbus TCP).
• P.Eng designation in Canada or eligibility for P.Eng.
