Job description
Job Description Build the Future with Us – This is your chance to shape some of Canada’s most complex and nationally significant infrastructure programs. As a Senior Electrical Engineer – Major Building Projects, you will play a pivotal role in advancing large‑scale defence, institutional, industrial, and Arctic/remote infrastructure projects.

You will support major pursuit teams for multiple defence‑sector RFPs—helping secure, shape, and deliver the next generation of national infrastructure. This role blends technical excellence, leadership, alternative delivery (P3/DB) expertise, and the ability to guide multidisciplinary teams toward innovative, constructible, compliant solutions. This position can be based out of any WSP office in Canada.

Your Impact

Lead or contribute to electrical designs for large, complex, multi‑disciplinary infrastructure projects, including P3 and design‑build delivery.

Serve as a Key Individual on defence and infrastructure pursuits, supporting experience narratives, compliance documentation, and technical bid inputs.

Deliver advanced engineering solutions for building electrical and electronic systems, including:

Low‑voltage power distribution, emergency power, and UPS

Lightning protection and grounding

Fire detection and voice alarm systems

Public address and telecom/security infrastructure

Lighting and lighting controls

External underground electrical services

Provide strategic technical leadership across pursuit and delivery teams on major national programs.

Support engineering for Arctic and remote environments, applying design strategies for climate, logistics, constructability, and reliability challenges.

Guide and mentor junior and intermediate team members, enabling them to confidently tackle complex design problems.

Conduct quality reviews to ensure compliance with codes, standards, and client/sector‑specific requirements—particularly defence‑related specifications.

The Skills That Set You Apart

P.Eng. (or eligible to transfer) in a Canadian jurisdiction.

Demonstrated success delivering major, complex infrastructure projects (defence, transportation, industrial, institutional, or utility‑scale).

Proven experience in P3, Design‑Build, and alternative delivery—with strong understanding of their technical and commercial requirements.

Ability to meet eligibility criteria for security clearance required for defence programs.

Advanced expertise in large‑scale electrical systems design and integration.

Previous experience supporting projects in the Arctic is necessary.

Strength in producing compliant, technically robust submissions for complex RFPs.

Compensation

AB, BC, NT, NU, SK & YT: $135,200 – $179,100

MB & ON: $123,300 – $169,800

NB, NL, NS, PEI & QC: $114,900 - $154,800

WSP is committed to the principles of employment equity. Only the candidates selected will be contacted.
