Engineer in Training

Position: Engineer in Training I
Position Summary
Acuren Group  is recruiting an Engineer in Training (EIT) to join our Mechanical Integrity and Reliability Engineering team. Acuren is one of North America's largest providers of integrated inspection, testing, and engineering services, with 110+ locations serving clients across the power generation, oil & gas, petrochemical, and heavy industrial sectors.

In this role, you will be embedded in active asset integrity programs, working alongside senior engineers, NDT technicians, and rope access personnel to help industrial clients manage the long-term reliability and safety of their critical mechanical systems. This is a technically hands‑on position with direct site exposure and a clear development path toward API certification and independent program ownership.

Responsibilities
Mechanical Integrity Programs

Support the execution and ongoing development of mechanical integrity programs for high-energy piping systems, storage tanks, pressure vessels, and related process equipment in industrial plant environments

Assist in managing Mechanical Integrity programs, including inspection planning, data trending, condition monitoring, and corrosion rate analysis

Create and issue detailed work packages for inspection activities, coordinating scope, access requirements, applicable codes, and acceptance criteria

Perform risk assessments and support work planning to prioritize inspection activities in alignment with client risk tolerance and regulatory requirements

Review and assess NDT inspection reports, identify anomalies, develop engineering recommendations, and track corrective actions

Risk-Based Inspection & Reliability

Support the development and maintenance of Risk-Based Inspection (RBI) programs per API 580/581 for piping, pressure vessels, and storage tanks

Assist in performing fitness-for-service (FFS) assessments per API 579-1/ASME FFS-1 for degraded or damaged equipment

Progress toward obtaining API 510 (Pressure Vessel Inspector), API 570 (Piping Inspector), and API 653 (Above ground Storage Tank Inspector) certifications, with the expectation of conducting and leading API inspections as qualifications are obtained

Identify reliability improvement opportunities and contribute to maintenance strategy development for rotating and static equipment

Site & Project Support

Travel to client plant sites to provide direct oversight of NDT and rope access field activities during scheduled outages and turnarounds; field travel is expected up to 25% of the time

Act as a field coordinator and point of contact for inspection crews on site, ensuring work is executed safely, on schedule, and within scope

Support project management functions for multi-discipline inspection programs, including scheduling, resource coordination, progress tracking, and client reporting

Prepare and deliver professional engineering reports documenting inspection findings, risk assessments, and actionable recommendations

Proactively engage with clients to understand program requirements, communicate findings, and identify opportunities to add value

Requirements

University degree in Mechanical Engineering;
Chemical, Mechanical, or Materials Engineering considered with relevant coursework

Membership in, or eligibility for, the applicable provincial engineering association; registration as an EIT required

Interest in or exposure to pressure equipment integrity, piping systems, or industrial inspection through co‑op, coursework, or prior employment is strongly preferred

Familiarity with ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code, ASME B31.1/B31.3, API standards, and related pressure equipment codes is an asset

Knowledge of NDT methodologies (UT, RT, MT, PT, TOFD, phased array) and their application to integrity assessment is an asset
