Product Designer

You will design and develop mechanical components for forestry equipment, ensuring they meet performance, safety, and industry standards. This involves collaborating with cross-functional teams to integrate designs into production and conducting rigorous testing to optimize performance.

Responsibilities

• Create detailed designs, perform calculations, and develop prototypes for mechanical components
• Analyze and select appropriate materials based on mechanical properties, cost, and manufacturing processes
• Collaborate and work closely with cross-functional teams including designers/engineers, manufacturing, and quality control
• Conduct tests such as stress analysis, fatigue testing, and vibration analysis to validate designs and optimize performance
• Create technical documentation, including design specifications and bills of materials
• Identify opportunities for design optimization, cost reduction, and efficiency improvements

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or Mechatronics preferred
• Previous design experience within similar industries to forestry
• Strong understanding of machine design fundamentals, mechanics, materials science, thermodynamics, and fluid dynamics
• Understanding of structural FEA and dynamic simulation of machine components
• Software experience including 3D modeling (SolidWorks) and FEA (Simulation)

Benefits

• Competitive Wages and Profit Sharing
• RRSP Matching Program
• Skills Development and Training Reimbursement
• Company-Paid Healthcare Benefits and EAP
• Active Social Committee
