Electrical Engineer – Industrial Projects
Full-Time / Part-Time / Contract
Vancouver, BC
Ziyutec Inc. is seeking an Electrical Engineer with strong industrial electrical experience to support our growing portfolio of industrial, mining, government, and commercial projects.
This position is intentionally flexible and may be structured as full-time, part-time, or contract, depending on the candidate’s experience and availability.
Our primary need is for someone with solid industrial electrical engineering capability who can independently analyze technical issues, develop practical design solutions, review engineering work, and support project execution. Experience in building electrical consulting is an asset but is not required.
Key Responsibilities
- Electrical engineering design and technical support for industrial and mining projects
- Develop and review electrical distribution systems, single-line diagrams, equipment connections, cable and feeder requirements, and electrical layouts
- Support design involving motors, MCCs, VFDs, transformers, generators, distribution equipment, and industrial electrical systems
- Review drawings, specifications, calculations, equipment information, and contractor submissions
- Identify technical issues and develop practical engineering solutions
- Participate in client, contractor, and multidisciplinary coordination meetings
- Provide technical direction and review to designers and junior team members
- Support site investigations, construction coordination, commissioning, and troubleshooting as required
- Work with project coordinators and production staff to move projects from design through construction
- Where applicable, support commercial, institutional, and government building electrical projects
Qualifications
- Degree in Electrical Engineering or a closely related discipline
- Practical experience in industrial electrical engineering, preferably involving mining, manufacturing, utilities, oil & gas, processing facilities, infrastructure, or similar environments
- Strong understanding of electrical distribution and industrial power systems
- Ability to independently analyze engineering problems and make sound technical recommendations
- Good communication and coordination skills
- Experience working with AutoCAD and engineering drawings
- P.Eng. registration in British Columbia, or eligibility for registration, is an asset
- Building electrical consulting experience is a strong asset
- Experience with Canadian electrical codes and standards is preferred
- Site, construction, commissioning, or troubleshooting experience is an asset
What We Are Looking For
We are not focused on job titles or a specific number of years of experience. We are looking for someone who can understand an industrial electrical problem, make sound engineering judgments, and take technical ownership of assigned work.
A candidate with both industrial and building electrical experience would be particularly valuable, as the position may support a mix of industrial, commercial, institutional, and government projects.
Employment Options & Compensation
We are open to different working arrangements for the right candidate:
Full-Time: approximately $90,000–$125,000 per year
Part-Time Employee: approximately $50–$65 per hour
Independent Contractor: approximately $65–$80 per hour
Compensation will depend on technical capability, relevant industrial experience, professional registration, and the level of responsibility the candidate can independently assume.
Exceptional candidates with strong industrial experience and demonstrated ability to independently lead technical work may be considered above these ranges.
Location
Vancouver / Lower Mainland, BC
A hybrid arrangement may be considered. Candidates should be able to attend project sites and in-person meetings in the Lower Mainland when required.
