As a Senior Project Engineer, you will play a key role in managing day‑to‑day project execution, coordinating subcontractors, supporting construction sequencing, and ensuring work is delivered safely, on schedule, and in compliance with contract requirements.

• Support project management teams with planning, scheduling, and execution of large‑scale civil construction activities

• Proven experience managing subcontractors and coordinating multi‑discipline scopes of work
• Strong communication, organizational, and problem‑solving skills
• Ability to work in a highly regulated, schedule‑critical environment

Why This Role:

This project represents some of the most challenging civil construction work in the region—tight tolerances, active rail operations, complex staging, and significant coordination across multiple stakeholders. It’s an opportunity to grow your career while contributing to infrastructure that will serve the region for generations.
