Senior Mechanical Engineer

The buildings that make up the landscape of our daily lives seem like permanent fixtures, fastened to a time and place. But what if that didn’t have to be true? What if our built environment — where we live, learn, play, and conduct business — carried us forward instead?

The Industrial Buildings group offers services for all phases of the project life cycle from pre-project planning through to detailed design for engineering analysis studies, and construction documents for capital investment projects. This is where great ideas and rewarding careers are built.

Exercising creativity and ingenuity, our team develops unique solutions for our clients that integrate people, materials, equipment, and information in productive ways. Our professionals deliver convenient, integrated, and practical solutions to complex industrial problems. Comprised of industry process experts, engineers, architects, as well as occupational health and safety professionals, we provide career opportunities as unique as you are. Every day we apply our expertise, creativity, and passion to propel communities into the future—join us!

A key factor in the success of the Industrial Buildings group has been our commitment to a fully integrated A/E design approach in which our team - made up of the client, operators, stakeholders and Stantec – share ideas and information freely and communicate decisions and direction quickly and effectively. It is made up of all key disciplines\: architecture, structural, mechanical, process, electrical, instrumentation, controls, civil, environmental, geotechnical, and project management. This approach provides us with a better overall understanding of the challenges and opportunities inherent in our projects, and our clients benefit from the robust, integrated design solutions that are developed and delivered.
