Johnson Aina

As a registered professional engineer (P.Eng.) with Engineers Geoscientists Manitoba since 2016, I have over fourteen years of engineering experience, including twelve in Canada. My career spans industries such as automotive, aerospace, lumber, and public service, showcasing my technical expertise and leadership.

At Motor Coach Industries, I led a project saving over $10 million CAD in recalls as a mechanical and lead quality/reliability engineer. At StandardAero Ltd, I helped launch a new helicopter engine repair line, and at MasterBrand Cabinets Inc., I managed a $10 million USD project while leading a 40-member team. Currently, as a project manager with the City of Winnipeg Transit facilities, I oversee multimillion-dollar capital projects across campuses.

I hold a master’s degree with distinction from the University of Manitoba and a first-class bachelor’s degree from Obafemi Awolowo University. I am a Project Management Professional (PMP) and have completed the Credential of Readiness (CORe) from Harvard Business School.

My community service includes serving as past chairman of the Nigerian chapter of Engineers Geoscientists Manitoba and on its academic review committee. My work has earned awards such as the SVP of Engineering Spot Award (StandardAero) and the President’s Best-of-the-Best Project Award (MasterBrand Cabinets).

I am passionate about mentoring junior engineers, helping them navigate the profession in Canada through guidance and practical insights to achieve their career goals.

As a mentor, I can offer advice on the following:

✅ P.Eng. licensing pathways in Canada

✅ Foreign work experience documentation

✅ How to minimize or eliminate the need for technical examinations

✅ Technical interview preparation

✅ P.Eng. licensing examination

✅ License transfer from other provinces

✅ Engineering career pathways
