Job description

Design Engineer, Site Development – Kitchener Overview

A well-established, multidisciplinary engineering firm is seeking a Design Engineer to join its Site Development team in Kitchener. This employee-owned organization has a long history of delivering civil, structural, environmental, geotechnical, and surveying services across Ontario. The successful candidate will play a key role in shaping community-focused development projects and will collaborate closely with a diverse team of professionals committed to advancing safe, sustainable, and welcoming communities. Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • Impactful Work : Contribute to private and municipal development projects throughout Kitchener-Waterloo, London, the GTA, and surrounding regions—projects that directly enhance community vibrancy, safety, and livability.
  • Broad Technical Exposure : Work alongside engineers, scientists, and surveyors from multiple disciplines, expanding your technical depth and career versatility.
  • Employee Ownership : Join a 100% employee-owned firm that shares success and fosters accountability at all levels.
  • Competitive Total Rewards : Enjoy strong compensation, comprehensive benefits, RRSP matching, a Wellness Spending Account, and performance-based incentives.
  • Growth & Development : Access ongoing training, career development opportunities, and reimbursement for annual professional memberships.
  • Flexibility & Balance : Benefit from a supportive, flexible work environment that prioritizes well-being and work–life balance.
  • Strong Culture : Engage with a collaborative team and participate in social events and community-focused initiatives.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the preparation of civil design documentation for planning and development applications, including OPA, ZBA, and SPA submissions, ensuring compliance with engineering principles, regulatory codes, and municipal standards.
  • Perform and review design and analysis related to storm and sanitary systems, site grading, water distribution, and stormwater management modelling for ICI and residential site development projects.
  • Review functional servicing and stormwater management reports for accuracy, consistency, and completeness.
  • Assess project information to identify and evaluate feasible design solutions.
  • Collaborate effectively with project managers, junior designers, CAD technicians, clients, and external consultants to ensure cohesive design execution.
  • Review and seal design documents prepared by yourself and others.
  • Interpret, address, and respond to review agency comments related to civil submissions for planning applications.
  • Participate in internal and external project meetings and coordinate deliverables to ensure timely and efficient project progression.
  • Perform additional related duties as assigned.
  • Qualifications

  • Degree in Civil Engineering, Applied Science, or a related discipline.
  • 4–10 years of relevant experience.
  • Licensed Professional Engineer (P.Eng.).
  • Strong technical understanding of civil engineering principles and design standards.
  • Proficient technical report writing and strong written and verbal communication abilities.
  • Excellent organizational skills and the ability to manage timelines effectively.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities with close attention to detail.
  • Proficiency with MS Office (Outlook, Excel, Word).
  • Working knowledge of hydraulic and hydrological modelling tools (e.g., MIDUSS NET, SWMHYMO, VO OTTHYMO, FlowMaster, HEC-RAS).
  • Understanding of municipal approvals processes in Southwestern Ontario (OPA, ZBA, SPA).
  • Familiarity with project management principles.
  • Experience with AutoCAD Civil 3D.
  • Fuze HR Solutions is committed to building a diverse, accessible, and equitable workforce. Our approach is twofold. Both internal, where we focus on creating a diverse and inclusive environment for our employees, and external, where we source and recruit from the most diverse candidate pools. Our teams are educated on current best practices at attracting, retaining, and working with the most talented and diverse candidates.
