WORK HISTORY
CEO @Arch Engineers
Vancouver, BC, CA
Engineers are frustrating for 3 main reasons:1⃣ Responsiveness2⃣ Constructability3⃣ CompletenessI founded Arch Engineers to pioneer a new model of engineering services—one built around a culturally aligned team of industry experts, carefully curated and coached to deliver engineering solutions that are both #Responsive and #Constructable.Our headquarters in Vancouver anchors the firm, housing all management, QA/QC, and regulatory authority where our Engineers of Record provide oversight and sign-off on all approvals. This centralized hub is supported by a decentralized network of specialists in civil, structural, and geotechnical engineering—extending our reach across energy, resources, industrial, and heavy civil sectors.We work on national-scale projects such as pipelines, ports, and transportation infrastructure. While we are fully qualified to compete with the industry’s largest players, we differentiate ourselves by delivering the agility, responsiveness, and innovative mindset that only entrepreneurial teams can provide.As CEO, my responsibilities span the full spectrum of leadership and business operations, including- Strategic leadership – business vision, growth strategy, and positioning- Culture building – hiring, coaching, and aligning talent with our values of speed, quality, and constructability- Business operations – P&L oversight, finance, marketing, advertising, and social media presence- Client engagement – business development and long-term relationship managementOrganizations that invest in people, innovation, and technology enable growth for their customers and transformation in their industries. The result of this strategic investment is organizations with strong brands, inspiring cultures, and increased financial

SKILLS
ABOUT DEVLIN FENTON
Engineering for CONCRETE - STEEL - DIRT - bridges, culverts, foundations and bulidings for transportation, forestry, mining, energy, heavy civil- temp. works, bridge launch, crane lift planning, rigging studies.I am the CEO of Arch Engineers, a structural, civil, and geotechnical engineering consultancy built for clients who need practical answers quickly. We support contractors, owners, industrial operators, and infrastructure teams across heavy civil, energy, mining, manufacturing, municipal, and construction sectors. Arch was built around a simple belief: quality is non-negotiable, but speed matters. In construction, a technically correct answer that arrives too late can still create cost, risk, rework, and delay. Our role is to provide engineering that is responsive, constructible, and useful to the people responsible for getting work built. My background in heavy-lift cranes, construction logistics, project delivery, and engineering leadership shapes how I think about professional services. Engineering is not an academic exercise once the project is live. It is a project-control function. It should reduce uncertainty, clarify decisions, support safety, and help teams move forward with confidence. At Arch Engineers, we work across structural engineering, civil engineering, geotechnical support, temporary works, construction engineering, field engineering, project management, and owner’s representative services. Our clients come to us when the work is technical, schedule-sensitive, field-constrained, or commercially important. I write about engineering, construction risk, infrastructure delivery, entrepreneurship, and the changes coming to the AEC sector through technology, AI, and better project systems.
