Mechanical Structure Engineer

Brampton, ON

Responsibilities:

Be part of a design team to evaluate, numerically, analytically, and/or experimentally, stiffness, strength, and durability of the structure of our robotic, nuclear and medical products.
Collaborate with a multi-disciplinary engineering team to develop state-of-the-art robotics
Size components, identify problem areas, propose design modification or improvement and subsequently approve the mechanical design.
Support manufacturing, and validate and prove the mechanical design by conducting mechanical tests on the product hardware according to the mechanical loading environment.
Generate analysis reports and create mechanical test plans and reports.
Investigate problems/failures during development and test

Skills:

Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field with a minimum of 7-10 years of relevant working experience. Master’s degree preferred.
2-4 years of direct experience in structural dynamics (modal analysis, SINE and Random vibration, and Acoustic excitation), preferably in the aerospace industry
Experience in the impact of different mechanical loading conditions (QS, Dynamic and thermal stress) on mechanical design
Exposure to nonlinear analysis and experience in fatigue and Damage Tolerance analysis
Experience in a dynamic environment with vibration and shock analysis
