IT Infrastructure Engineer

Ferrovial Construction Canada Inc. and VINCI Construction Grands Projets are undertaking the design, build, and finance of the Ontario Line Southern Civil, Stations, and Tunnel (South Civil) package.

As Ontario Transit Group, we are now mobilizing our design and construction crews, with major works. The South Civil contract is anticipated to be completed in 2030.

The project will strengthen Ontario’s economy by supporting an estimated 1,500 jobs at the peak of construction.

• A six-kilometer tunnel and associated tunnelling works from Exhibition to Don Yard portal (west of the Don River).
• Stations:
• One above-ground station to be integrated with the existing GO Transit Exhibition Station.
• Two underground stations to be integrated with the existing TTC Osgoode and Queen subway stations.
• Four new underground stations (King/Bathurst, Queen/Spadina, Moss Park, Corktown).

Faster, more frequent, and reliable access to rapid transit with more than 227,500 people will live within a 10-minute walk of an Ontario Line station.

• Improve the quality of life for commuters by reducing daily travel time.
• Reduce crowding on the existing Line 1 (Yonge-University) subway.
• Up to 57,000 more jobs accessible by transit (in 45 minutes or less) for Toronto residents.
• Economic and community growth along the future transit line and thousands of job opportunities annually during construction.
• Reduction in traffic congestion, greenhouse gases, and fuel consumption by providing an alternative transportation option.

The IT Infrastructure Engineer will support and maintain critical network, security, and communication systems across a major tunnel construction project. This fully on‑site role involves managing Fortinet and Ubiquiti network equipment, maintaining CCTV and access control systems, and ensuring reliable LTE/Wi‑Fi and UHF communication networks in challenging field environments.

This position requires frequent travel to multiple active construction sites, strong problem‑solving skills, and clear communication with both technical and construction teams. Candidates must be comfortable working in rugged conditions and be available for on‑call support to ensure seamless operational continuity across the project.

• Configure, manage, and maintain Fortinet firewalls, switches, and security appliances to ensure a secure and resilient network.

  Support, monitor, and troubleshoot LTE and Wi‑Fi radio systems in tunnels and other difficult environments to ensure continuous service.

• Maintain, monitor, and troubleshoot IP camera systems, NVRs, and networked video infrastructure.
• Operate and support access control hardware/software to maintain site security and compliance.
• Oversee UHF radio equipment, ensuring reliable communication for construction and safety teams.
• Track system performance, maintain configuration records, and provide reporting as required.

• Work safely and effectively in muddy, dusty, wet, underground, and confined environments.
• Perform site visits across multiple locations to install, maintain, and troubleshoot equipment.
• Carry and manage field tools and technical equipment (backpack up to approx. 10 kg and devices up to 15 kg).
• Support installation and physical deployment of networking equipment in active construction zones.

• Provide on‑call support for urgent system issues outside standard hours.
• Communicate clearly with construction crews, contractors, engineering teams, and technical staff.
• Work both independently and collaboratively to resolve issues, optimize systems, and ensure seamless operations.
