We are seeking a confident and experienced Lead Electrical Engineer / Designer to join our client, an established consulting firm in Waterloo, Ontario. In this role, you will spearhead electrical engineering projects within the building services industry, focusing on diverse sectors including residential, educational, institutional, and commercial developments. As a senior member of the team, you will be responsible for the full project lifecycle—from winning proposals and overseeing complex technical designs to managing client relationships and mentoring junior staff. This position is an in-office position intended to fill an existing vacancy within our multi-disciplinary engineering environment.

Advantages

Competitive Compensation: Earn between $45.00 – $57.00 per hour based on experience.
Stability: Full-time, permanent position with a reputable firm established for over two decades.
Project Variety: Lead high-value projects (in excess of $1M) ranging from high-rise residential to modern educational facilities.
Leadership Growth: Direct oversight of technical teams and the opportunity to shape the department's workflow and staff development.
Collaborative Culture: Work within a tight-knit, multi-disciplinary team of internal and external professionals.

Responsibilities

Design Leadership: Lead the design for major electrical construction projects, ensuring all technical requirements—including power distribution, fire alarms, life safety, generators, and lighting controls—are met.
Team Management: Provide daily technical direction to a minimum of two subordinates, conducting performance reviews and providing mentorship to junior staff.
Project Lifecycle Management: Conduct site reviews, manage change notices, and oversee contract administration to resolve construction issues effectively.
Business Development: Respond to and secure Requests for Proposals (RFPs) to drive firm growth.
Stakeholder Liaison: Manage and nurture professional relationships with building owners, architects, and contractors.
Technical Verification: Select appropriate equipment and verify all design calculations to ensure compliance with building classifications and client standards.

Qualifications

Credentials: A P.Eng., C.E.T., LEL, or LET designation is strongly preferred.
Experience: 10+ years of electrical engineering experience specifically within the building services industry.
Technical Mastery: Extensive knowledge of OBC, OESC, NFPA, and IES codes.
Sector Expertise: Proven track record in educational, commercial, or residential sectors (experience with healthcare or long-term care is a significant asset).
Software & Systems: Proficiency in delivering documentation for power systems, auxiliary systems (IT/AV), and site photometric plans.
Soft Skills: Exceptional organizational and time management skills, with a focus on analytical thinking and customer service.
Work Schedule: Comfortable working out of the Waterloo, ON office 5 days a week.

Summary
This is a high-impact leadership role for a seasoned electrical professional who thrives on technical challenges and team mentorship.
