Reporting to the Manager, Technology Development, the Mechanical Prototyping Specialist supports cross-functional technology-development projects focused on evaluating and integrating UVC LEDs and related technologies into water-disinfection systems. You will turn technical requirements and early concepts into working mechanical prototypes, experimental test fixtures, and documented engineering solutions. This is an opportunity to combine mechanical creativity with disciplined design, hands-on building, testing, data analysis, and continuous improvement.
This position is part of the Technology Development team located in
London, Ontario, and will be hybrid to support hands-on prototyping, experimental testing, and close collaboration with technical team members.
In this role, a typical day will look like:- Translate technical requirements into practical mechanical concepts, detailed designs, prototypes, test fixtures, and experimental setups.
- Data Analysis & Technical Documentation: Analyze test results and develop technical documentation, including CAD models, engineering drawings, specifications, procedures, reports, and recommendations.
- Build, assemble, test, troubleshoot, and refine complex prototypes, mechanical assemblies, and experimental hardware.
- Plan and execute technology evaluations and performance tests, analyze the results, and make evidence-based recommendations.
- Work with internal stakeholders, external vendors, and multidisciplinary team members to align technical work with project requirements and business priorities.
- Improve test methods, engineering workflows, documentation, tools, and knowledge-sharing practices.
The essential requirements of the job include:- Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering, mechatronics engineering, or another relevant technical discipline, with at least three years of relevant experience.
- Proficiency with SolidWorks, including creating 3D CAD models, engineering drawings, and related technical documentation.
- Demonstrated experience designing, building, testing, and refining prototype products, mechanical assemblies, test fixtures, or experimental hardware.
- Working knowledge of prototyping and manufacturing methods, including additive manufacturing, machining, fabrication, and mechanical assembly.
- Ability to interpret technical requirements and convert them into practical engineering solutions, supported by clear analysis and documentation.
