- Coordinating shop fabrication, system integration, and material delivery.
- Forecasting project costs and addressing any discrepancies between estimates and actuals.
- Communicating with customers in a professional and solution-focused manner.
- Participating in an on-call rotation to provide customer support for E&C products and services.
- Building and maintaining strong relationships with both internal and external partners.

- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering (Software, Chemical, Mechanical, Electrical, or Electronics) with E.I.T. or P.Eng eligibility (APEGA).
Skills & Experience:
- Experience in process control system design (PLC, DCS, pneumatic systems, analytical systems, or prefabricated modules).
