ABOUT THE ROLE
The Design Engineer in Training (EIT) is a key member of the engineering and technical team, responsible for developing structural designs for precast concrete structures and components and preparing accurate, complete designs and production documentation. Working closely with Engineering, Sales, Quality Assurance, and Production teams, this role ensures designs meet project specifications, applicable industry standards, manufacturing requirements, and customer needs.

This position will provide relevant and practical work experience to an Engineering in Training (EIT) who intends to pursue a career in the underground infrastructure industry and their accreditation in professional Engineering. The practical office and production-related experience will be consistent with the P.Eng training and hours required to attain your accreditation.

The EIT will effectively gain the required working knowledge of the concrete precast industry to apply industry specific standards, following functional specifications of the designs assigned to them.

WHAT YOU’LL ACCOMPLISH

- Develop structural designs for precast concrete structures and components that meet project specifications, applicable engineering standards, and customer requirements.

- Produce accurate, complete structural engineering calculations and design documentation to support engineering review, approval, and manufacturing.

- Apply structural engineering principles and knowledge of precast concrete materials, formwork, reinforcing steel, and manufacturing methods to deliver practical, manufacturable design solutions.
