Process Engineer in Training

At Stantec, we know the work we do matters. From decarbonizing mines to modernizing electric grids and building the infrastructure that fuels communities, we’re powering the world. Our clients come to us with their biggest, most complex challenges because that’s where we thrive. And we’re looking for problem solvers, high achievers, and visionaries to help us.

Join us for a chance to grow professionally at one of the world’s top design firms while building our clean energy future.

Stantec is seeking a Process Engineer in Training (EIT) to join our team to engage in projects across the full project lifecycle from concept selection through detailed engineering. The role will provide you with the opportunity to engaging in projects ranging from conventional oil and gas, SAGD, gas processing, energy transition, and more; and provide you with a strong foundation for your career.

As a Process EIT, you will contribute to multidisciplinary projects under the leadership of a Senior Process Engineer, Process Lead or Team Lead. Your work will include evaluating process options, developing calculations and simulations, preparing process deliverables, supporting equipment and system design, and assisting with field, construction, commissioning, and operational support activities. You will be expected to apply sound engineering judgment, follow applicable codes and standards, adhere to Stantec quality and safety procedures, and develop a strong foundation in safe, practical, and cost-effective process design.

This is an Edmonton or Calgary based position and reports to the Process Engineering and Technical Safety Manager.
