Mechanical Technologists

We're looking for Mechanical Engineering Technologists at all stages of their careers to join our growing engineering team at Fleetway. Whether you're just starting out or bring years of experience, this is a unique opportunity to contribute to Canada's National Shipbuilding Strategy, supporting the Royal Canadian Navy through the design and delivery of complex marine systems and structures.

In this role, you'll be part of a team that provides full-spectrum engineering and technical data management services. You'll work on projects that directly impact the Navy's operational readiness—designing, analyzing, and integrating systems that help ensure our fleet is "ready to help, ready to lead, and ready to fight."

If you're passionate about mechanical engineering technology and want to make a difference in Canada's marine defense sector, we'd love to hear from you
