Description
Join our team as a Project Engineer in Training (EIT) and play a vital role in shaping our city's neighborhoods through the Neighbourhood Renewal Program.
Reporting to a Senior Engineer you will be responsible for taking on neighbourhood design engineering projects at various stages of renewal. This includes the design of critical transportation facilities—such as roads, sidewalks, curb ramps, traffic safety measures, and active transportation facilities—following the City of Edmonton Complete Streets Design and Construction standards (CSDCS) and renewal best practices.
Your role will require the independent generation of recommendations for decision-making. You will be actively involved in project coordination with internal and external partners, reviewing consultant submissions, and providing technical recommendations to peers, technologists, and the project management team. This is an excellent opportunity to apply your engineering knowledge to impactful community projects and support Senior Engineer-led initiatives.
