Position Overview

You’re a natural at aligning diverse teams across all phases of large scale, energy capital projects. Your strong analytical mindset, attention to detail, and proven leadership enable you to manage complex interfaces and deliver major projects safely, on schedule, and on budget.

As the Senior Project Engineer, Tilbury LNG Storage Expansion (TLSE), you will provide engineering oversight and technical leadership across the delivery of a major LNG expansion program. You will be accountable for coordinating and overseeing the work of engineering consultants, procurement teams, and construction contractors throughout the full project lifecycle. This includes scope development, regulatory and permitting activities, detailed engineering, and execution support, ensuring alignment with program objectives and FortisBC standards.

The Tilbury Program is a portfolio of major capital projects designed to significantly increase LNG storage and liquefaction capacity at FortisBC’s Tilbury Island LNG facility. These projects will strengthen the resiliency of FortisBC’s gas system, support energy security for the Lower Mainland, and enable customers to reduce their carbon footprint by advancing LNG as a lower carbon alternative to diesel or bunker fuel in marine and industrial applications.

In this role, you will :

• Provide technical oversight of engineering contractors, monitoring deliverables, schedules, and design progression of LNG major projects
• Manage RFIs, decision registers, cost and schedule inputs, and project tracking tools at the program level
• Ensure design development meets project scope, regulatory requirements, and FortisBC engineering standards
• Drive alignment to key milestones and deadlines across engineering consultants, internal teams, and external stakeholders
• Oversee the design and layout of major facilities and infrastructure, ensuring integration across disciplines
• Provide regular status updates on engineering progress, risks, and deliverables to the Project Manager and the LNG Projects Engineering Manager
• Prepare bi-weekly or monthly engineering progress reports, as required
• Develop and manage scoping documents (e.g., DBMs, Scopes of Work) for consultants across different phases of the project lifecycle
• Collaborate with engineering, procurement, construction, and regulatory teams to identify risks, resolve technical challenges, and implement solutions
• Maintain visibility of ongoing engineering activities and interfaces across the broader Tilbury LNG Program
• Establish and refine engineering workflows, processes, and execution strategies suitable for a major project environment
• Lead resolution of complex technical and design issues
• Build strong, collaborative relationships to effectively manage interfaces between multiple stakeholders and project teams

In this role, you will have the option to participate in a flexible work program, enabling you to work from an approved flex location in British Columbia up to 85 days a year (equivalent to approximately two days a week), subject to business or operational needs.

Our engaging workplace offers a wide range of challenging opportunities, while being safe, inclusive, and diverse. We offer a competitive salary and benefits package, while supporting life-long career development. We also encourage volunteerism and nourish the need to give back to your community.
