Mid-sized EPC firm specializing in decarbonization and energy transition projects. Current and upcoming portfolio is 100% focused on CO₂ capture, gas processing, helium recovery, and power generation facilities across North America.
**Role Summary**
We are seeking an experienced Electrical Discipline Lead to act as the single point of accountability for all electrical engineering and design across the company. This is a true discipline-head position — you will own standards, quality, man-hour budgets, resource allocation, and final sign-off on every electrical deliverable that leaves the electrical group.
Key Project Types You Will Own (Current and Awarded Work)

All projects are greenfield and brownfield in Canada and the U.S., with heavy emphasis on hazardous-area design (Class I Div 1 & 2 / Zone 0, 1, 2), IECEx/ATEX alongside NEC/CEC compliance, and integration with large variable-frequency drives (5-40 MW), high-voltage substations (up to 230 kV), and DCS/SCADA systems.
**Responsibilities**:
- Full technical and budgetary authority over the entire electrical department (engineers + designers)
- Establish and maintain company electrical standards, specifications, and tools.
- Lead or personally perform power system studies (load flow, short-circuit, protection coordination, arc-flash, transient motor starting, harmonics)
- Oversee substation design, MV/LV switchgear specification, large VFD packages, emergency/standby generation, and grounding grids, heat-trace systems
- Resource planning, hiring, mentoring, and performance reviews for all electrical staff
- Client-facing technical authority on all electrical matters
- Final review and professional seal on all electrical deliverables
Required Qualifications
- Minimum 10 years of direct electrical design and engineering experience on mid-to-large oil & gas, gas processing, CO₂ capture, helium, or power generation projects
- Verifiable project experience on at least three of the five project types listed above (CO₂ capture, 10-100 MW power gen, 100 MMscfd gas plants, 200 MMscfd compression, helium purification/liquefaction)
- Expert-level knowledge of CSA C22.1/CEC, NFPA 70/NEC, IEEE, API, and IEC standards in hazardous locations
- Proven track record acting as discipline lead or department head in an EPC environment
Preferred (Nice-to-Have)
- Experience with carbon capture amine or membrane plants
- Familiarity with helium process electrical loads (cryogenic compressors, expanders, cold boxes)
- Previous work in both Canada and U.S. regulatory environments
What We Offer
- True discipline ownership with direct reporting to senior leadership
- Opportunity to build and lead the electrical group during rapid growth phase
- Highly competitive compensation, annual bonus tied to project success
If you are a registered P.Eng./P.E. with proven discipline-lead experience on the exact types of energy-transition and gas projects we execute, we want to hear from you immediately.
Pay: $155,000.00-$200,000.00 per year
