Simulation engineer Offres d'emploi - Winnipeg, MB

As our Junior Mechanical Engineer, you'll build your engineering career by working hands-on with mechanical products from design and prototyping through testing and production.

You'll support mechanical design assignments, create and refine designs, build and evaluate prototypes, and participate in testing activities in our onsite engineering lab. Working alongside experienced engineers and cross-functional teams, you'll develop your technical skills while contributing to real products and engineering projects.

You'll have the opportunity to learn from experienced team members, take on greater responsibility as your capabilities grow, and see your work move from an idea on screen to a product in production.
