Structural Engineer - Residential Construction (Parry Sound)

This is a rare opportunity to be the founding structural engineer at a respected Muskoka design firm — not just joining a department, but building one. Youll work directly alongside a talented principal designer on one-of-a-kind custom homes and waterfront cottages, where your structural decisions are visible, impactful, and genuinely matter to the design. If youre a residential-focused P.Eng who takes pride in doing clean, well-coordinated structural work and wants to own the function rather than be one of many on a large team, this is worth a responsible look.
