The Ideal Candidate:
You have a solid understanding of mechanical design, strength of materials, fluid-flow analysis, thermodynamics and heat transfer. You thrive in diverse roles that drive projects end to end; from initial design analysis, material selection to prototyping and testing. Bonus points for shop experience, including general machine operations and high volume manufacturing methods.
Key Responsibilities:
- Create design requirement documentation based on customer requests and engineering design tools
- Analyze structural, thermal, fluid flow and performance of prototype or production hardware
- Build ex-situ and in-situ tools for conducting experiments to validate design concepts
- Deliver component or assembly design specifications with validated results and documentation
- Collaborate with Supply Chain, Manufacturing and Engineering to ensure orderly progression of designs to production
- Collaborate with machine shops, fabricators and suppliers to ensure parts will meet functional requirements and aggressive timelines
- Provide continuation engineering support on products following internal change control and design review processes
Qualifications:
- B.Sc. degree in Mechanical, Engineering Physics, Chemical, or related Engineering program with 3 - 5 years of related experience
- Ability to interpret test data and compare against design objectives within the Stack Engineering team
- Working knowledge of mechanical design, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, thermodynamics, electrical analysis and strength of materials
- Familiarity with engineering tools such as design verification planning, tolerance stack-up, structured problem solving and DFMEA
- Comfortable with drawings and design standards, including GD&T
Assets:
- Understanding of fuel cell design
- Experience with MATLAB, FEA and CFD tools
- Profession Engineering eligibility or certification
Ballard values diversity in the workplace and is committed to employment equity. We encourage applications from all qualified candidates.
