Job Description
What if you could redefine what’s possible? With us, you can.
You want Purpose. Growth. Opportunity. People who get it.
We are the home of ambitious, passionate, and innovative world shapers.
With an unmatched breadth and depth of engineering, advisory and science-based expertise, our global minds unite to power local solutions. We are pathfinders and impact makers.
We are Visioneers. We are WSP.
The Opportunity
Shape Something Different – Join our Energy subsector, a vital part of WSP’s ERI (Energy, Resources & Industry) sector, delivering solutions that power Canada’s energy transition. From upstream and downstream oil and gas to renewable energy markets, we partner with clients across the full project lifecycle—designing, engineering, and innovating for a low-carbon future.
Are you ready to help shape the infrastructure that fuels communities today—and transforms how we power tomorrow? As an Intermediate Mechanical Engineer on our Energy team, you’ll join a powerhouse group of innovators, problem‑solvers, and world‑builders who thrive on tackling complex challenges across renewable energy, power generation, and energy‑modernization projects. You'll be at the forefront, tackling projects in a technical role, collaborating with various disciplines to ensure we meet our mechanical engineering goals. You will support multiple types of clients (Independent Power Producers, Municipal Electric Utilities, Investor-Owned Utilities, Contractors, and Developers), address their challenges, and implement power grid systems of the future. In doing so, you will get the opportunity to work on a wide range of power plant technologies including biomass, geothermal, hydrogen, renewable natural gas, fossil fuel, carbon capture, battery energy storage, and hydro. Here, your expertise won’t just support projects—it will energize entire systems and play a key role in building resilient, future‑ready solutions that advance our clients’ missions and strengthen the communities we serve.
This position can be located in any of our Canadian offices, with preference for our BC and AB locations.
