• Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook)

Ideal Background:

Hands-on experience in any of the following fields is highly advantageous:

• Custom-built fabrication

• Mining equipment design

• Container-based solutions (e.g., substations, genset enclosures, E-houses)

• HVAC, power generation, or hydraulics

• Modular skid systems and industrial enclosures

Why This Role?

You’ll join a dynamic and fast-growing engineering team delivering highly specialized projects at national scale. This is a hands-on, engineering-first environment where innovation, precision, and execution matter.

Our client offers a competitive salary, growth opportunities, and the chance to make a measurable impact on real-world engineering problems.
