Description
Welcome to Design Works Engineering! We are a multi-discipline engineering firm inclusive of civil engineering, structural engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, energy modelling, and fire protection design. Our diverse staff all share the same vision – create great projects, and even better relationships.
Our electrical engineering team provides tailored solutions ranging from municipal distribution systems for new land developments to full-building electrical designs and lighting studies. We pride ourselves on listening deeply, responding quickly, and delivering efficient, reliable, and cost-effective systems. Our work supports community development and enhances everyday life through thoughtful engineering.
About the Role
Design Works Engineering is seeking an experienced and driven Electrical Engineer to join our expanding Calgary office. This is an exciting opportunity for a professional who enjoys delivering practical, high-performing building and subdivision electrical designs—from detailed power distribution to municipal-level systems that support community growth.
We are looking for individuals with 5+ years of experience in electrical consulting engineering, particularly in building electrical systems, fire alarm/life safety, and municipal/subdivision power and communication design. Candidates must understand construction realities, communicate clearly, and take pride in delivering efficient, well-coordinated, cost-effective electrical systems.
As part of our multidisciplinary team, you will collaborate closely with architects, civil and mechanical departments, planners, developers, and major regional clients.
What You’ll Do
Building Electrical Design
Develop complete electrical designs for commercial, residential, industrial, hospitality, institutional, and mixed-use buildings.
Perform load calculations, short-circuit/coordination reviews, and electrical system sizing.
Prepare lighting layouts, lighting control systems, and photometric studies.
Design fire alarm systems, life safety systems, and emergency/standby power systems (UPS, generators).
Prepare grounding, bonding, heat trace, and communication system designs.
Municipal & Subdivision Electrical Design
Design low-voltage and medium-voltage distribution systems for new subdivisions and large land development projects.
Produce streetlighting, distribution pathway, and communication network layouts.
Coordinate with the City of Calgary, utility/telecom providers, and other authorities for approvals and permitting.
Prepare feasibility studies, servicing reviews, and electrical planning for new communities.
Project Coordination & Documentation
Produce electrical drawings, specifications, tender packages, building permit submissions, and construction documents.
Support energy audits, feasibility studies, and code-compliance assessments.
Coordinate with mechanical, structural, civil, and architectural teams to deliver integrated designs.
Construction & Client Support
Review shop drawings, respond to RFIs, and perform site inspections during construction.
Attend client meetings, provide technical guidance, and maintain strong communication throughout the project lifecycle.
Deliver practical, code-compliant solutions aligned with client goals and project budgets.
Leadership & Mentorship
Lead projects independently and manage schedules, deliverables, and client expectations.
Mentor junior designers and EITs to build capacity within the Calgary electrical team.
What You Bring
5+ years of experience in electrical engineering consulting, with strong experience in building electrical and land development/subdivision electrical systems.
Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering; registered or eligible as a P.Eng. with APEGA.
Strong working knowledge of:
Canadian Electrical Code (CEC)
Alberta Building Code
Municipal standards, especially City of Calgary/utility requirements
Proficiency with AutoCAD; experience with Revit and lighting calculation software is an asset.
Demonstrated experience with:
Power distribution systems
Fire alarm & life safety
Lighting and photometrics
Low-, medium-, and high-voltage systems
Subdivision electrical and communication design
Excellent communication skills and an ability to collaborate effectively with multidisciplinary teams.
Practical, construction-oriented mindset with strong problem-solving skills.
What We Offer
Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package.
A key role in strengthening the Calgary electrical team within a rapidly expanding national firm.
Opportunities to work on diverse, high-impact projects throughout Alberta and across Canada.
A collaborative, innovative environment where your expertise directly contributes to shaping communities.
At Design Works Engineering we are offering a career rather than a job: supporting our team members to reach their full potential is at the heart of our business for delivering superior value to our clients on each of our building projects.
Design Works Engineering is an equal-opportunity employer. If you feel as though you are the right fit for this position, please apply in confidence. If you require any accommodation in the recruitment process, please let us know.
The most qualified candidates will be contacted directly by Design Works Engineering for further discussion.
