Civil Engineer-in-Training (APEGA #323052; EGBC transfer in progress) with a Master of Engineering in Civil Engineering from the University of Ottawa and over five years delivering underground utility and linear infrastructure projects from concept design through construction completion. Reads, interprets, and produces engineering plans; performs quantity takeoffs and scope reviews; and coordinates daily with construction crews, and permitting authorities to keep projects on schedule and on budget. Leads QC and constructability reviews, mentors junior staff, and manages multiple concurrent projects under live construction deadlines.

Seeking a hands-on field/project engineering role with P.Eng. mentorship on the path to licensure.

Senior Design & Drafting Technician at ROHL Global Networks Inc. (2025-10 – Present)

• Coordinate directly with construction crews, project managers, subcontractors, and permitting authorities to move civil infrastructure projects from concept through completion.
• Perform constructability reviews covering site grading, utility corridor routing, drainage, and subsurface utility conflicts — resolving design issues before they reach the field and cost schedule time.
• Prepare and submit complete permitting packages, coordinating with municipal and utility authorities to accelerate project mobilization.
• Lead quality control reviews across all drawing packages, ensuring technical accuracy, constructability, and code compliance prior to release for construction.
• Translate survey data, utility locates, and field markups into buildable design packages using AutoCAD, Civil 3D, and GIS to municipal, utility, and client standards.
• Manage multiple concurrent projects against live construction deadlines, reporting schedule and scope issues proactively.
• Mentor junior technicians on design and drafting best practices; serve as backup point of contact for the Manager, GIS/CAD Services.

Design & Drafting Technician at ROHL Global Networks Inc. (2023-04 – 2025-10)

• Delivered construction packages for major linear infrastructure projects including the Dempster Fiber Line, the Tuktoyaktuk–Inuvik Fiber Line, and Clearwater County.
• Delivered FTTH builds serving remote Alberta communities — Goodfish Lake, Wabasca 166D, and East Prairie Métis Settlement — under rural broadband expansion programs.
• Processed complex field-collected survey data in Trimble Business Center (TBC) to produce accurate, verified design inputs.
• Performed structural and make-ready analyses on aerial projects using QuickPole, confirming compliance with applicable standards.
• Applied GPS data, drone imagery, and specification sheets to finalize drawing packages and minimize construction rework.
• Executed quality checks against project specifications and design data, identifying and correcting discrepancies before submission.

Design Technician & Trainer at Telecon (2022-07 – 2023-04)

• Designed small cell, pole relocation, new pole line, and utility augmentation projects, selecting methods that minimized construction cost and customer service impact.
• Coordinated with permitting departments and field coordinators to produce accurate, code-compliant construction documentation.
• Built electronic base maps for road corridors, MDUs, and strand routing from CAD files and hard-copy source material.
• Trained and mentored 5+ new CAD technicians through independent project delivery.

CAD Technician at Telecon (2021-04 – 2022-07)

• Produced utility plans, hydro utility plans, and construction drawings from concept through approval-ready final design.
• Applied client drawing standards and printing procedures consistently while delivering within prescribed timelines.
• Worked directly with designers and engineers to develop practical, constructible solutions on outside plant infrastructure and cable replacement projects.
• Introduced process improvements that raised drawing quality and overall drafting efficiency.
