What is the Opportunity? AUE is seeking a Design Team Lead to guide a multidisciplinary team in delivering high-quality FTTH and coaxial network designs. As Design Team Lead, you will oversee end-to-end design workflows – from mentoring staff and approving technical packages to resolving field conflicts and driving continuous improvement across CAD, GIS, and permitting processes. What You'll Do Here Lead and mentor Design QC Specialists and Project Designers by setting clear goals, providing coaching, and delivering performance feedback. Plan and manage workload across multiple programs; assign design packages and monitor throughput, quality, and schedule adherence. Review and approve HLD/LLD packages for FTTH and coaxial builds, including fiber routing, splitter hierarchy, splice plans, cable counts, bill of materials, and construction notes. Ensure constructability by validating clearances, utility separation, and adherence to layer/symbology standards for aerial and underground designs. Deliver permit-ready drawing sets (i.e., municipal consent, utility permits, traffic control sheets) that meet compliance and client requirements. Resolve design conflicts in collaboration with Permitting, CAD, Field/GIS, and Construction teams (i.e., pole loads, depth of cover, utility clashes). Establish stage-gate reviews and acceptance criteria aligned with client SOWs and Aecon standards; communicate risks and mitigation plans to PMs and clients. Champion data integrity and version control between CAD and GIS; ensure drawing package completeness (cover, legend, plan/profile, details). Drive quality control by implementing standardized checklists and ensuring redlines/as-built updates are reflected in client systems (i.e., GIS/NetX). Support quantity take-offs (MTO/BOM) and respond to vendor/contractor queries related to design intent. Provide expert guidance on AutoCAD and MicroStation workflows, layer management, and productivity tools/scripts. Leverage design automation tools (i.e., ABD/AUD) to improve quality and efficiency where applicable. Develop onboarding and training materials covering design standards, QC methods, and permitting nuances; coordinate cross-training with CAD/GIS teams. Define and track performance metrics such as first-pass yield, rework rate, cycle time, and non-conformances, report progress and corrective actions. Standardize templates and QC logs; lead post-mortems and lessons-learned sessions to drive continuous improvement. Promote a Safety Always mindset. What You Bring to the Team 5+ years of telecommunications design experience, including 2+ years leading design or QC teams. Strong proficiency in AutoCAD; experience with MicroStation, SPIDA Calc, PLS-CADD, and IKE Office is an asset. Working knowledge of FTTH/coax network design, municipal/CSA standards, permitting processes, and as-built documentation. Clear, confident communicator with both technical and non-technical stakeholders; proven leadership, decision-making, and problem-solving skills. Strong attention to detail and quality focus; able to manage multiple priorities and deadlines in a fast-paced environment. Self-motivated and adaptable, with a demonstrated ability to learn new skills, take initiative, and collaborate effectively in team settings. Post-secondary education in Electrical/Civil Engineering, Architectural Technology, or a related discipline (asset). Experience with RFPs, RFIs, and full execution of lump sum bidding requirements is a strong asset. Reason for Vacancy : New Compensation Range : $55,000 - $75,000 annually
