HR Coordinator
WHO IS ENGINUITY?
Located in the heart of Spryfield, 264 Herring Cove Road, Enginuity is an innovative, creative, and holistic approach to Engineering. The engineering industry is heavily founded on processes and systems geared towards direct problem-solving. Enginuity does this in a creative and consultative manner to address the long-term needs of clients and end-users, to also foster better relationships in the long run.
Our owner, Ben Garvey, started Enginuity in his basement 20 years ago with only one contract. To date, we employ 50+ experts and are quickly growing due to an exceptionally high demand for our services and unique approach. We work with dozens of corporations, inventors, and strategic partners to design, prototype, and manufacture world-class products and processes.
We are currently Atlantic Canada’s leader in innovation and design BUT we are on a mission to be Canada’s most impactful engineering and design group. Are you our missing link?
