Whitehorse, Yukon, Canada CAP Engineering Full time

Location: Whitehorse, Yukon

At CAP Engineering, we are dedicated to inspiring individuals, embracing challenges, and achieving success. We believe that our team should consist of the right people who embody the spirit of a 'CAP person.' This means our staff engage in a variety of project opportunities across Canada in sectors such as mining, transportation, municipal services, renewable energy, and utilities.

A CAP person is a visionary who not only identifies challenges but also takes proactive steps to develop innovative solutions. Our systems are evolving and may not be flawless; however, a CAP person sees this as a chance to contribute to organizational growth rather than a setback.

They promote continuous improvement and share their expertise by mentoring junior colleagues. Outside of work, they have personal aspirations, enjoy global travel, and are committed to community service. A CAP person actively creates opportunities to network and maintain client relationships by participating in industry events.
