Job Opportunity: Building Science Expert
Location: Halifax preferred (Moncton, Fredericton, or Saint John considered)
The Role: We are seeking a seasoned professional to lead and oversee design implementation with a focus on building science, particularly in the areas of roof and wall assemblies. This role is less structural and more concentrated on the building envelopes, ensuring architectural integrity and thermal performance. Your expertise in protective cladding, roofing insulation, and wind and water tightness will be critical.
Key Responsibilities:

• Lead design implementation of building envelopes, focusing on roofs and walls.
• Develop specifications, solutions, and drawings for building assemblies, ensuring compliance with thermodynamic principles and heat transfer efficiency.
• Collaborate closely with architects and specifications teams, working at heights as required.
• Stamp drawings and ensure all designs meet Canadian building codes.
• Stay updated with the latest trends in green building practices.

Requirements:

• P.Eng certification in one of the four Atlantic provinces, ideally Nova Scotia.
• Extensive experience (5+ years) in cladding, roofing, and building envelope projects.
• A minimum of 8 years of experience in building science, with a degree in architecture or engineering.
• Proven ability to develop solutions that are code-compliant and well-versed in Canadian building codes.
• Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to educate and lead a team.
• Locally connected candidates preferred, but international candidates with Canadian work experience will be considered.

Ideal Candidate:

• A seasoned professional with deep technical knowledge in building science.
• Someone capable of teaching and leading, not at an entry-level position.
• Technically strong with excellent communication abilities.
• Preferably sourced from an architectural team or engineering firm with a similar focus.

If you are a driven professional with the expertise we need and are ready to take on a challenging and rewarding role, we want to hear from you. Join us in shaping the future of building design with innovative and sustainable solutions.
