Engineering Jobs in Canada

Engineering jobs include civil, mechanical, electrical, chemical and software engineers, along with technologists, drafters and project coordinators. Energy, construction, manufacturing, mining and utilities are the main employers.

Engineering is a regulated profession. To call yourself a professional engineer or take responsibility for engineering work, you must be licensed by the regulator in your province or territory. Graduates typically work as an engineer-in-training under supervision for several years first. Technologists and technicians follow a separate, shorter certification route. Internationally trained engineers should start the assessment early; see how credential recognition works.
