DWI GROUP
FOUNDING ENVIRONMENTAL LEAD
Calgary, Alberta (Remote/Hybrid)
Building Projects. Creating Legacy.
ABOUT DWI GROUP
DWI Group is an emerging architecture, engineering, construction, and capital platform focused on institutional, commercial, retail, and community-based projects across Canada.
Our vision is to create an integrated project delivery firm that combines architecture, engineering, construction, and development expertise under a single coordinated platform. We are currently building our founding team.
THE OPPORTUNITY
DWI is seeking a Founding Environmental Engineer Lead to anchor our environmental capability, with a focus on the municipal infrastructure work that forms the backbone of our pursuit strategy: landfill engineering, wastewater treatment, water treatment, and related environmental compliance work across Alberta, BC, and western Canada.
This sector offers some of the most consistent and accessible RFP opportunities available to a growing firm — recurring municipal procurement cycles, clear technical scopes, and a strong fit for a disciplined, founder-led team. Initially part-time and contract-based, this role grows as DWI builds a pipeline of municipal and institutional environmental work.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Lead technical scoping and design input for landfill engineering projects, including closure, expansion, and leachate management
- Support wastewater treatment plant design, upgrades, and process engineering
- Contribute to water treatment facility design and regulatory compliance submissions
- Prepare environmental components of proposals, qualifications packages, and technical submissions
- Conduct environmental site assessments and compliance reviews as needed
- Coordinate with municipal and provincial regulators on permitting and approvals
- Help establish environmental engineering standards and processes within the DWI platform
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- Licensed P.Eng or eligible for registration in Alberta and/or BC
- Experience in landfill engineering, wastewater treatment, water treatment, or municipal environmental infrastructure
- Familiarity with provincial environmental regulations (AEPA, BC Environmental Management Act) and municipal procurement processes
- Strong technical writing and proposal development skills
- Entrepreneurial mindset — drawn to building a practice, not just staffing projects
WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT
This is not a traditional consulting role.
You will be joining the founding team of a company at the ground floor — with the opportunity to influence its direction, culture, and long-term growth. We are building something that lasts.
POSITION TYPE
- Growth Potential to Full-Time Leadership Role
SOFTWARE & TECHNOLOGY REQUIREMENTS
As DWI Group is currently in its startup phase, candidates must have legal access to all software required to perform the duties of the role.
This includes, where applicable:
- Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC)
- Other discipline-specific software required for project delivery
Candidates may satisfy this requirement through personal licenses, existing employer-approved licenses where permitted, or software provided through their own consulting practice or company.
Compensation rates are expected to reflect the candidate's provision of their own software, hardware, and professional tools.
As DWI Group grows and transitions into larger project delivery roles, company-provided software and technology resources may be introduced.
COMPENSATION STRUCTURE
This position is initially structured as a flexible part-time contract role supporting proposal development, project pursuits, business development, and early-stage project execution.
Compensation will be based on an hourly or project-specific contract arrangement.
Candidates are expected to operate as independent professionals and maintain their own professional software, hardware, insurance (if applicable), and technical resources.
As DWI Group secures projects and expands its operations, successful candidates may be offered increased hours, long-term leadership opportunities, and potential participation in future growth initiatives.
