• Develop, maintain, and manage stress critical line lists and stress specifications for assigned projects.
• Determine anchor locations, support requirements, and structural and equipment loads associated with piping systems.
• Participate in 3D model and layout reviews and provide recommendations prior to formal stress analysis to optimize designs.
• Review and verify piping isometrics, ensuring accuracy and completeness, and complete and approve associated engineering calculations.
• Design and specify springs, expansion joints, and specialty pipe supports where required to ensure safe and reliable operation.
• Ensure all piping stress designs comply with ASME B31.3 and applicable project standards, specifications, and industry codes.
• Collaborate with piping designers, mechanical engineers, structural engineers, and project leadership to resolve technical issues and optimize system layouts.
• Provide technical guidance, support, and mentorship to junior engineers and designers involved in piping and stress engineering.
• For engineers, work autonomously on assigned scopes while supervising or mentoring other stress engineers as needed.
• Contribute to the continuous improvement of stress analysis procedures, tools, and best practices within the project delivery group.
• Interpret and work with P&IDs and PFDs to understand process and system requirements for accurate stress analysis and design.

Essential Skills

• BSc or BEng in Mechanical Engineering.
• 510+ years of experience in piping and stress engineering, preferably within mining, metals, or heavy industrial projects.
• Strong, hands-on experience with CAESAR II for pipe stress and flexibility analysis.
• Strong knowledge of ASME B31.3 and piping design and stress requirements.
• Demonstrated experience reviewing and approving piping isometrics and associated calculations.
• Proven experience working with P&IDs and PFDs in an industrial project environment.
• Previous EPC/EPCM project experience in mining or heavy industrial sectors strongly preferred.
• Ability to work effectively in a multidisciplinary engineering environment and collaborate with piping, mechanical, and structural teams.
• For experienced candidates, ability to work independently, manage own workload, and supervise or mentor other stress engineers.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

• . designation in Ontario preferred for experienced-level positions.
• Experience supporting multiple concurrent projects or programs across different locations and commodities.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and decision-making skills applied to complex piping systems.
• Effective communication skills, with the ability to clearly present technical findings and recommendations to project teams.
• Ability to participate constructively in 3D model reviews and layout discussions to influence design decisions early in the process.
• Interest in contributing to the development of best practices and standards for piping stress analysis within a project delivery group.
