About Us

Design Build Solutions Limited (DBS) is a design-build firm delivering multi-unit residential and care-based developments across Canada. For over 25 years, we’ve specialized in complex, large-scale building projects—from multi-residential apartments to long-term care and mixed-use communities.

What makes us different:

Fully integrated design-build model
In-house manufacturing (prefabricated wall systems + millwork)
Strong pipeline of projects across Ontario, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick
End-to-end involvement from concept through construction

We’re growing and looking for an Electrical Engineer to join our team and play a key role in delivering high-quality building projects.

The Opportunity

As the Engineer of Record (EOR) for electrical systems, you will:

Lead and take ownership of electrical design across multi-unit building projects
Work directly with internal teams and construction sites
Influence real-world outcomes from design through to commissioning

We’re looking for strong building engineering experience and someone comfortable taking responsibility for stamped designs.

What You’ll Do

Prepare, review, and seal drawings, specifications, and reports
Lead electrical design including:
Power distribution systems
Lighting and controls
Emergency and life safety systems
Coordinate with internal and external teams:
Mechanical, structural, architectural, and construction teams
Provide construction-phase support:
Site visits
RFIs and clarifications
Field reviews and issue resolution
Ensure compliance with: Provincial codes and standards, Safety regulations and best practices
Mentor and oversee work completed by junior staff or external consultants

What We’re Looking For

P.Eng. in Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, or Ontario
We will support licensing in other provinces if needed
5+ years of experience in building electrical design
Experience in an Engineer of Record role
Strong understanding of Multi-unit residential or commercial building systems
Comfortable working in a design-build environment
Willing to engage with project teams and visit sites as needed

Nice to Have (Not Required)

Experience with multi-unit residential, long-term care, or institutional buildings
Exposure to fast-track or design-build project delivery

Why Join DBS

Flexibility: Work from NS, NB, or ON with hybrid options
Impact: Be directly involved in full project lifecycle—not siloed
Growth: Opportunity to lead projects and mentor others
Support: Assistance with professional licensing (Ontario, if needed)
Variety: Diverse pipeline of projects across multiple regions

What We Offer

Competitive compensation
Extended health and dental benefits
RRSP matching program
Employee Assistance Program
Paid time off
Career development and advancement opportunities
A collaborative, down-to-earth team environment

How to Apply
