Job Title

MECHANICAL DESIGNER, PRODUCT DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT (MARINE ACOUSTICS) Department: Engineering Location: Collingwood, ON Reports To: Engineering Leadership Employment Type: FullTime Permanent, Onsite role Salary Range: $110,000.00 - $140,000.00 This new role of Mechanical Designer will focus on product design and development for marine acoustic products and subassemblies. This role owns the mechanical product design intent and execution across concept, prototyping, verification support, production release, and sustained engineering. This role will work closely with mechanical engineers, acoustic engineers, electronics engineers, manufacturing, and quality to deliver hardware that is manufacturable, serviceable, and aligned to real customer use cases. This is a productfocused mechanical design role. The role will be expected to produce buildable designs and disciplined drawing packages, lead designformanufacturing discussions, and drive practical outcomes. Where deeper engineering analysis is required, the Mechanical Designer will partner with the appropriate engineering discipline and incorporate results into the design. In the early phase, this role will be handson in SolidWorks modeling, production drawings, and tolerancing to unblock priority work and establish standards. As the function matures, the role shifts toward leading product definition, driving designformanufacturing decisions, improving usability and serviceability, and mentoring others, while delegating more routine detailing. RESPONSIBILITIES Product design and development Own mechanical design for marine acoustic products and subassemblies, including housings, mounts, sealing concepts, cable routing and strain relief, protective features, and assembly concepts. Translate customer and operator use cases into practical mechanical requirements and design features. Create and maintain threedimensional Computer Aided Design models and twodimensional manufacturing drawings in SolidWorks. Lead trade studies and design decisions that consider manufacturability, reliability, handling, installation, service access, and cost. Tolerancing and design control Apply Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing and perform tolerance stackups for critical interfaces and assemblies. Maintain disciplined revision control, drawing standards, and engineering change documentation. Develop and maintain interface control documentation where multiple subsystems meet. Manufacturing readiness and sustained engineering Lead designformanufacturing reviews with production, quality, and manufacturing partners. Specify and refine fixtures, jigs, and tooling concepts to improve repeatability and reduce assembly time. Support build issues through rootcause investigation and design updates, including corrective actions and change implementation. Contribute to work instructions and inspection criteria in partnership with Quality. Crossfunctional collaboration Work with acoustic engineering and electronics engineering to ensure packaging, interfaces, and integration meet system constraints. Partner with the Advanced Manufacturing Specialist on fixture strategy, prototype builds, machining approaches, and additive manufacturing options. Communicate design intent clearly to technicians and stakeholders through drawings, models, and practical walkthroughs. Collaboration Partner with the Marine Acoustic Product Design Lead and Mechanical Design Engineer to translate design intent into robust, manufacturable solutions. Collaborate with Quality to define inspection methods, gauge selection, and acceptance criteria. KEY OUTCOMES Productionready designs that balance performance, reliability, usability, cost, and schedule. Clear, complete drawing packages that reduce shopfloor ambiguity. Faster prototype iteration cycles enabled by strong fixture and tooling concepts. Improved assembly repeatability and serviceability through thoughtful design choices. QUALIFICATIONS 5+ years in mechanical product design and development with demonstrated release to production. Advanced SolidWorks capability, including complex assemblies, configurations, and production drawings. Strong working knowledge of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing and tolerance analysis. Proven experience collaborating with production teams and resolving design issues in real builds. Strong documentation discipline and ability to deliver clear, buildable drawing packages. Clear communicator with a practical, teamfirst working style. HIGH VALUED ASSETS Experience with ruggedized electromechanical products or harshenvironment hardware (marine preferred). Familiarity with sealing, corrosion control, cable management, strain relief, shock and vibration considerations, and serviceability design. Experience designing fixtures and tooling that materially improve assembly repeatability. Comfort using additive manufacturing and hybrid fabrication approaches during prototyping and tooling development. Experience working within qualitymanaged environments where traceability and documentation matter.
