Responsibilities

About the Role

Walter P Moore is seeking engineering interns and co‑op students to join our Structural Engineering team in Toronto. This role is intended for students who have recently completed or currently completing their undergraduate degree who are looking for hands‑on, practical experience working on real structural engineering projects.

As part of a project team, you’ll work alongside experienced engineers and contribute to the analysis, modeling, and design of architectural structures across a wide range of building types, including commercial, institutional, healthcare, sports, and public assembly facilities. Interns and co‑op students are also eligible to participate in Walter P Moore’s internal training and professional development programs.

What You’ll Do

• Assist with structural analysis, design calculations, and construction document creation under the guidance of professional engineers
• Develop and review structural models and drawings using industry software (e.g., Revit and structural analysis tools) as well as internally developed digital and AI driven tools
• Support project teams with technical documentation and multidisciplinary coordination
• Participate in internal project meetings and design reviews
• Gain exposure to real‑world project delivery, from concept through construction

Qualifications

• Currently enrolled in an undergraduate Civil Engineering program (structural focus preferred)
• Mid‑degree students encouraged to apply, including those in formal co‑op programs
• Completion of, or progression through, core structural engineering coursework
• Strong interest in building and structural engineering
• Clear written and verbal communication skills
• Ability to work a minimum of 20 hours per week, with flexibility to support academic requirements

Why Walter P Moore

• Meaningful technical work — not just observation or administrative tasks
• Direct mentorship from experienced structural engineers
• Exposure to complex, high‑profile projects across multiple building sectors
• A collaborative, learning‑focused environment that supports technical growth
• Many interns and co‑op students return to Walter P Moore for future work terms or full‑time opportunities after graduation
