Deployment engineer Jobs in Mississauga, ON

Job Description Overview AtkinsRéalis is one of Canada's largest private sector nuclear engineering groups. We have been providing a wide range of services to the nuclear industry in Canada and around the world for more than 60 years. We are proud to be the steward of Canadian CANDU nuclear technology. Help shape the future of nuclear new build. Join an innovative team delivering groundbreaking projects and influencing future design decisions. As Engineering Manager, Deployment Readiness, you will build the technical foundations for each new build project from early initiation through Front-End Engineering and Design (FEED) to award of the full Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) contract. Reporting to the Engineering Director, New Build FEED, you will ensure the inputs, requirements, delivery arrangements, digital capabilities, supplier interfaces and readiness plans are in place for each early design and engineering stage up to EPC handover. You will lead a growing multidisciplinary team as both a hands-on technical leader and people manager. Our New Build FEED group is in start-up mode: hands-on, collaborative and often first in the door with prospective clients. You will combine broad technical judgement with focused execution to deliver safe, high-quality work on time and budget, earn client confidence and lay the groundwork for large-scale projects and repeat business. The Role Technical Leadership:

• Be accountable for ensuring delivery of all activities and deliverables in line with your team’s responsibilities, to achieve project objectives within specified timelines and budgets.
• Establish required multi-company engineering delivery frameworks, aligning disciplines, other New Build FEED teams, project management, procurement, construction, clients and partners, defining responsibilities, technical interfaces, information exchanges and escalation routes across organizations and locations.
• Identify and help manage technical and readiness risks, assumptions, constraints and integration issues, driving resolution with accountable teams and escalating threats to subsequent project stages.
• Own the engineering deployment-readiness plan from initiation through FEED to EPC contract initiation, setting stage-specific maturity criteria, evidence requirements, decision gates and actions to reduce uncertainty and enable effective programmatic new build project engineering execution.
• Lead collaborative engineering execution planning across internal teams and partners. Define scope, deliverables, resources, capabilities, schedule and cost estimates, and dependencies, as well as sequencing inputs and early packages for licensing, procurement, manufacturing and site execution.
• Establish readiness of project inputs and the technical basis: client objectives, site information, reference-design applicability, jurisdiction-specific requirements and design assumptions. Track gaps, validation needs, owners and due dates.
• With interfacing teams and discipline leads, establish requirements elicitation, database setup and governance, allocation, traceability, change control and verification planning, specifying and maintaining clear ownership and continuity throughout project delivery.
• Establish Building Information Modelling (BIM) and model-based delivery across teams, suppliers and subcontractors through: execution plans, model and information requirements, federation, exchanges and coordination, defining issue-resolution workflows and information maturity for downstream engineering project phases.
• Define and implement each project digital strategy across participating organizations by working with digital and information-management specialists within the organization to establish common data environments, interoperable tools, information standards, access and approval workflows, and controlled handover.
• With procurement and delivery partners, define engineering supplier and subcontractor scopes, capability and capacity needs, deliverables and information obligations, aligning reviews and releases for early procurement and enabling works, as well as addressing missing inputs, long-lead dependencies and readiness gaps before commitments.
• Ensure compliance with applicable codes, standards and regulations, and ensuring the adequacy of the engineering deployment readiness scope of work with approved requirements, as applicable.
• Support other New Build FEED Engineering Managers in defining stage-specific design development, licensing engagement and enabling works requirements, confirming prerequisite inputs and interfaces with own team scopes as required.
• Plan and secure appropriate decision-maker acceptance of outstanding actions, residual risks, assumptions and responsibilities before stage transitions and eventual EPC handover.
• Apply lessons from earlier deployments and partners, building reusable engineering readiness processes, templates and tools, tailored to each project's site, client, regulatory and delivery context.

People Management and Team Development

• Work with the Director and other senior leads to develop an ethos of support, mentorship, authenticity, and psychological safety that enables the formation of a cohesive high-performing team.
• Set realistic but suitably challenging goals for your team, keeping them focused on the correct priorities and regularly monitoring their achievements towards those goals.
• Promote and support opportunities for professional development, mentoring, and stretch assignments for your team.
• Conduct performance reviews, provide feedback, and manage team resources effectively.
• Assess workload, manage team resource assignments, support the Director in developing resourcing plans, and participate in recruitment activities.
• Support identification and analysis of relevant project and team key performance indicators and metrics.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with internal and external stakeholders to facilitate successful project outcomes.
• Support business development in the team through delivering quality on-time work, cultivating valued contacts with customer counterparts through technical excellence, and supporting the preparation of engineering estimates and technical write-ups for proposals.
• Identify opportunities for continuous improvement of team and company processes and systems.
• Support the company in implementing process improvements to enhance efficiency, accuracy, and effectiveness in project delivery.
