- Develop concepts and 3D models for custom fixtures and tooling with poka‑yoke and ergonomic design principles.

- Develop concepts and 3D models for robotic weld and handling cells, including end‑of‑arm tooling and guarding.

- Create complete drawing packages: assemblies, part drawings, and BOMs ready for manufacturing.

- Collaborate with controls engineers, manufacturing, and project managers to ensure designs meet technical, cost, and timeline requirements.

- Participate in design reviews, risk assessments, and continuous improvement initiatives.

- Support integration, testing, and troubleshooting of automation systems during build and commissioning phases.

Qualifications:

- Diploma or degree in Mechanical Engineering, Automation Technology, or related field.

- 3+ years of experience in automation or special‑purpose machine design.

- Proficiency in SolidWorks (3D modeling, assemblies, and motion studies) and SolidWorks PDM.

- Understanding of pneumatics, sensors, and mechanical motion systems.

- Knowledge of robotic systems, particularly in welding, assembly, and handling applications, is an asset.

- Strong mechanical aptitude and attention to detail in design for manufacturability.

- Excellent problem‑solving, communication, and teamwork skills.
