Job Description

Job Description

You’re a civil engineering grad looking for your perfect entry-level role.   You want an exciting, hands-on job in the dynamic telecommunications industry. You’re driven to prove yourself and want to put your knowledge to the test in the field.   You’re also a thrill-seeker – heights don’t scare you, and neither does working outdoors in the elements.   Join us, and soar to the top of your engineering career at Teletek Structures () ! We’re an engineering firm that builds and maintains the telecommunications infrastructure that supports major networks like Bell, Rogers and Telus.   We’re growing, and looking for entry-level engineers to join our close-knit team - could this be you?   Engineer (Entry Level)   As our new entry level engineer, you will work as part of an experienced field inspection team to complete inspections on cell tower structures. You’ll travel to different sites daily, mainly across Ontario, and sometimes to western Canada.   You’ll be responsible for two types of inspections : audit inspections and post inspections. You’ll complete inspections from the ground, and from the towers themselves (by climbing up between 100 to 1000 feet). For audits, you’ll perform structural analysis, and for post inspections, you’ll ensure everything is installed per engineering drawings.   Then, you’ll take your findings to assemble inspection reports. You’ll use your AutoCAD skills to create basic CAD drawings to illustrate your measured findings.    Your civil engineering education has prepared you for this job, but you’re the right person for this role if :

• You’re comfortable working at heights : a big part of your job involves tethered climbing, from 100 feet to maximum of 1000 feet. Heights don’t scare you – you’re an adrenaline junkie who will love the daily adventure.
• You enjoy working outdoors : you’ll be working outside, in all types of weather conditions. You’ll enjoy the fresh air, and not being stuck in an office. Ideally, you’ve had some experience working outdoors before.
• You’re safety-conscious : working safely matters to you. You’ll take care to follow proper health and safety procedures to ensure your safety.
• You’re ambitious : this is an entry-level role where you’ll put in the work to gain as much knowledge as you can about our industry and structures. As you gain experience, you’ll progress to a more senior role. This excites you, because you want to grow your career with us.   In addition to your growth and expertise, you’ll be successful here because you are aligned with TELETEK’s Company values :   Value Growth and Team Resourcefulness :   We all contribute to our team’s success!  You enjoy working collaboratively with the team.  You are resourceful. You are always learning, personally and professionally.  You own your professional development and Teletek support you as an accountability partner.   Respect :   We stay positive.  We treat each other with respect, kindness and celebrate our abilities, strengths and our differences.  We know that respect builds trust and trust builds a collaborative team, partnerships and client relationships.    Innovation and creative ideas.   You’re unafraid to bring new ideas forward, because you’re committed to helping us continue evolving.  Together we find solutions to problems, even for problems that don’t yet exist!   Working at Teletek Structures   For more than 15 years, Teletek Structures has built our reputation by providing a personal level of service to our clients, treating them like partners rather than customers. We care about our team in this same way. We’re a friendly group, who work very closely together, and we strive for a low-stress environment.   Working in a small company like ours means you’ll get exposure to many different aspects of the business. You’ll learn quickly here and gain diverse experience. We’re committed to supporting your learning and development, and will cover the cost of relevant training and courses.   The Details   This is a full time permanent position, working Monday to Friday.  You’ll work in the field, and when you need to, in our St. Jacobs office. You’ll start your day between 7 and 8 am, working a full 8.5-hour day. Occasionally, you’ll work overtime to complete inspections. Overtime pay is available.   In addition to your 2 weeks’ vacation, you’ll receive 5 paid sick days, the week off between Christmas and New Year’s, benefits, and you’ll have potential to earn profit sharing bonuses.    Qualifications   You’re made for this role if you have the following qualifications :
• A bachelor’s degree in civil engineering from an accredited university
• Experience working with AutoCAD, professionally or academically
• Valid driver’s license for travel to field inspection sites
• Experience working with Microsoft Office programs (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook) at an intermediate level
