- Develop construction specifications (steel and concrete), cost estimates, and technical inputs for proposals and project schedules.

- Produce and/or review structural drawings and deliverables, including design drawings and fabrication-ready documentation as required by project scope.

- Coordinate with cross-functional disciplines (electrical, civil, geotechnical, and construction) to support integrated substation design solutions.

- Utilize structural analysis and finite element modeling tools to evaluate and size structural systems and foundations.

- Maintain quality control standards and perform QA/QC reviews of structural deliverables prior to submission.

- Support Project Managers and Project Engineers with reporting needs and technical coordination.

- Review shop drawings, respond to RFIs, and provide support during the construction phase.

- Assist with scoping and execution of small- to medium-sized tasks and project workstreams.

- Mentor and support the development of junior team members through technical guidance and knowledge sharing.

- Exercise responsible and ethical decision-making regarding company funds, resources and conduct, and adhere to WSP’s Code of Conduct and related policies and procedures.

- Perform additional responsibilities as required by business needs.
