- Develop or support grounding and bonding designs in accordance with CSA, IEEE, and applicable local safety standards.
- Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams (civil, mechanical, systems, and others) to integrate electrical requirements into overall project designs.
- Participate in technical reviews, risk assessments, and constructability evaluations throughout the project lifecycle.
- Interface with clients, stakeholders, and authorities by providing technical input, progress updates, and support during design and implementation phases.
