Current Openings
Senior Electrical Engineer, Whitehorse Yukon
You’ve always paid attention to details. Even when things are finished, you take another look. You are responsible, and you are self directed and organized. You care about your projects and you know that your work reflects who you are as a professional. You’re an engineer because it feeds your creative side. You need the details, and you need to know how everything is going to fit together. If you don’t know, who does? You design in a methodical way, because you know that systems allow you to do your job better. You’re a great communicator and you like to answer questions, find solutions, and help out where you can. You’re the glue. You want a flexible environment that provides rewards for initiative and the value that you bring.
We had all of this in mind when we started Setplan Engineering. We’re like you. We wanted a company with great standards and more flexibility to service our clients. We’re building this company from the bottom up. We’re a process driven company; and we know that every improvement today means a better product tomorrow. Our focus is on relationships, and a better-quality product for our clients.
