Electrical Engineer

Dillon Consulting Limited
01.2012 - Current
  • Lead electrical designs for diverse projects across universities, hospitals, retail, restaurants, lift stations, multi-unit residential buildings, hotels, and small industrial facilities. Design systems including lighting, power and distribution, fire alarm, communications, security, solar PV, and mechanical systems power/controls tie-in (e.g. plumbing ventilation, sprinkler systems).
  • Co-manage M&E office portfolio in a project management capacity, overseeing client communications, contractor coordination, budgeting and invoicing, fee generation, and delegation of tasks to junior staff.
  • Draft electrical system layouts, floor and site plans using AutoCAD; coordinate as needed with staff for review, verification, and markups of design changes.
  • Prepare designs, scopes of work, phasing, and methods of installations during projects using specifications pertinent to work being performed, in compliance with NBCC, CEC, CSA, and other required standards.
  • Conduct regular site visits during construction to ensure code and design compliance.
  • Review shop drawings, prepare change orders / directives, and issue transmittal sheets and observation reports during the contract administration phase of projects.

Commercial & Industrial Prescriptive Programs - Program Lead

Efficiency Nova Scotia / Nova Scotia Power
05.2010 - 12.2011
  • Conducted research on technologies and measures that would be potential additions to the program rebate portfolio. This included estimating costs, energy consumption amounts, measure screening, and general product knowledge.
  • Determined both present and future program improvements in order to increase client participation and claimed energy savings under the Business Energy Rebates program.
  • Presented monthly updates on program development to the Senior Management Team.
  • Managed incoming projects, gathered pertinent data, worked with customers interested in participating in the program, and focused on providing enhancements to the data-management process.

Network Analyzer

Bell-Aliant
