Who is an Operations Engineer ?
• Operating Engineers, also known as Power Engineers, are professional, skilled operators and managers responsible for providing light, heat, climate control, power or other utilities for buildings, industrial processes and thermal electric generating stations. They operate and maintain steam boilers and related mechanical equipment, such as pumps, gas compressors, generators, motors, steam turbines, air conditioning systems, heat exchangers and refrigeration equipment.
• The title of Power Engineer is the standardized Canadian designation.

Who is an Operations Engineer ?
• Depending on the size of the facility or plant, an Operating Engineer is responsible for the operation of the utilities’ equipment, or may also be responsible for management and maintenance of all facility operations.
• Large facilities may have several Operating Engineers on a given operating shift, designated as shift engineers and assistant shift engineers. In all cases, a Chief Operating Engineer is designated as ultimately responsible for the entire utilities or power plant operation.
