About Omicron

Omicron is one of Western Canada’s largest integrated development, design, and construction firms — uniting real estate strategists, architects, interior designers, engineers, and builders as One Omicron. We believe that when all disciplines work together from day one, we deliver a better way of creating buildings: faster decisions, fewer handoffs, stronger outcomes, and a far better experience for clients and partners.

Founded in 1998 on the belief that curiosity, courage, respect, and connection drive exceptional work, Omicron continues to challenge convention and innovate within an industry known for outdated processes. Our tech‑forward mindset, collaborative model, and entrepreneurial culture empower our teams to solve complex problems, push boundaries, and deliver meaningful impact in the communities where we work.

We spark curiosity. We show courage. We value respect. We create connections. And above all — We are One Omicron.

In‑Person Work Environment

We are a full in‑office organization because our integrated design–build model thrives on in-person connections. When architects, engineers, designers, builders, and project managers collaborate face‑to‑face, we solve problems faster, make better decisions, and maintain the exceptional level of coordination our work demands.

That said, we get that life happens. If you need to work from home occasionally for personal reasons (an appointment, school drop‑off, etc.), that’s completely fine — just let your leader know. We trust our teams to manage their time responsibly while staying connected to the work and to each other.
