We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Senior Electrical Engineer to join our Canadian Mine Infrastructure team. The successful candidate will leverage their electrical engineering expertise to deliver cutting-edge, cost‑effective, and practical solutions that enhance the performance, reliability, and safety of our clients’ mining operations. The role offers an exciting opportunity to work on a variety of projects, from early‑phase studies to construction services, while collaborating with multidisciplinary teams across Canada, Australia, and elsewhere.

Develop and optimize electrical systems and equipment for mining and industrial projects, including power, control, instrumentation, and communications systems. Provide engineering solutions for surface and underground electrical systems, including mine power distribution, ventilation controls, materials handling and conveyance systems, mine dewatering systems, pumping systems, and other mining facilities. Design and specify electrical reticulation systems for surface and underground mines, including high‑voltage (HV) and low‑voltage (LV) distribution networks, substations, and mobile equipment charging infrastructure.

Prepare and review technical specifications, engineering drawings, and functional descriptions for electrical and control systems, including substations, switchgear, and motor control centers (MCCs). Functional design and coordination of automation systems (integration by others), including programmable logic controllers (PLCs), distributed control systems (DCS), and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA)



systems for mining operations.

Project Delivery

Lead and manage electrical engineering tasks across all project phases. Ensure projects are delivered on time, within budget, and in compliance with client and regulatory requirements. Work closely with clients to understand their operational needs and develop tailored engineering solutions for mining and industrial operations.

Collaborate with internal teams, including mechanical, structural, and process engineers, to ensure seamless project integration. Participate in client meetings, design reviews, and progress updates to maintain alignment with project goals. Foster and maintain strong relationships with clients, serving as a trusted advisor for their electrical, instrumentation, and control needs.

Offer technical support to troubleshoot and resolve electrical and control system issues in mining operations. Discover opportunities for process improvements, cost savings, and enhanced operational efficiency. Ensure all designs and installations comply with relevant industry standards, codes, and safety regulations, including the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) and applicable provincial mining regulations.

Conduct risk assessments and implement safety measures in all project phases.
