Détails du poste

About the role Canada Rocket Company is building a sovereign launch capability for Canada. We're looking for a Mechanical Engineer / Mechanical Design Specialist to support the design, development, and integration E1 Engine, the heart of our vehicle. This role is focused on real hardware ownership: translating system requirements into robust, manufacturable, flight-ready mechanical designs and driving them from early concept through test and flight. You will work across structures, avionics, fluids, and propulsion to develop hardware ranging that supports the engines. This is a highly cross-functional role for an engineer who is equally comfortable in CAD, engineering analysis, manufacturing discussions, and test execution. If you want to solve practical, multidisciplinary design problems and help turn an integrated launch vehicle into real hardware, this is the role. What you'll do * Own the design and development of mechanical hardware and integrated assemblies supporting the E1 Engine and its variants. * Own and be accountable for mechanical systems from concept through design, supplier discussion, manufacturing, test, iteration, and flight integration. * Translate requirements into mechanical concepts, detailed designs, and released hardware that meet functional, structural, thermal, packaging, manufacturability, and reliability targets. * Develop CAD models, detailed drawings, interface definitions, and release packages for hardware spanning prototype, development, qualification, and flight configurations. * Perform engineering analyses appropriate to the hardware, including hand calculations and FEA-supported assessments related to strength, stiffness, vibration, thermal effects, tolerance stack-up, fit-up, and functional performance. * Drive packaging and integration of mechanical hardware within tight vehicle environments, balancing accessibility, maintainability, assembly flow, mass, and interface constraints. * Partner closely with structures, avionics, propulsion, fluids, manufacturing, integration, and test teams to ensure designs are practical, well integrated, and executable. * Support design-for-manufacture and design-for-assembly decisions, with a strong understanding of manufacturing and assembly processes, and relevant interfaces. Qualifications Required * Experience in mechanical design and development for aerospace, automotive, or similarly demanding hardware environments; expectations will scale with level. * Strong experience owning mechanical components or assemblies from concept through detailed design, manufacturing, build, test, and deployment. * Proficiency in CAD and mechanical drawing creation, with the ability to generate clear, manufacturable, and well-controlled hardware definitions. * Strong engineering fundamentals, including statics, strength of materials, basic structural mechanics, tolerance stack-ups, fits, joints, and practical design for real hardware. * Ability to perform and interpret engineering analyses using a combination of first-principles calculations and FEM/FEA tools, with sound judgment on the level of analysis appropriate to the problem. * Experience working across disciplines to integrate mechanical hardware with adjacent systems. * Experience with tolerance analysis, stack-up management, GD&T, interface control, and assembly alignment in tightly constrained hardware environments. * Strong understanding of manufacturing processes and how design decisions affect producibility, cost, quality, schedule, assembly, and inspection. * Ability to operate with ownership in a fast-paced, cross-functional hardware development environment. * Excellent communication and collaboration skills, especially across design, analysis, manufacturing, and integration boundaries. Preferred * Direct experience designing aerospace vehicle hardware, propulsion support hardware, fluid system hardware, avionics mechanical packaging, or other highly integrated electromechanical or mechanical systems. * Experience with routed systems and hardware such as pneumatic lines, tubes, fittings, valves, manifolds, brackets, actuator mounts, reservoirs, and pressure-containing assemblies. * Hands-on experience with machining, sheet metal, welded assemblies, bent tube design, machined manifolds, additive manufacturing, composites, or other relevant aerospace fabrication methods. * Familiarity with rapid design-build-test hardware development environments. * Bachelor's or advanced degree in mechanical engineering, manufacturing engineering, or a related field. *note: To hold the title of Engineer, and take responsibility for designs that impact public safety, candidates are required to hold a current P.Eng License, in good standing.
