Calgary

Beseem Technologies Inc. is a Calgary-based medical simulation company developing FASTneo™, a neonatal point-of-care ultrasound training simulator. FASTneo™ combines custom electronics, sensor-based tracking, physical simulation equipment, 3D-printed components and specialized software to support realistic medical training.

We are seeking a skilled and dependable Electronics Prototyping and Assembly Technologist to help manufacture, test and improve the physical devices used in our simulation systems.

About the Role

This is a hands-on, production-focused position combining electronics assembly, sensor integration, CAD design and 3D printing.

You will assemble, wire, program and test established electronic devices. You will also support product improvements by integrating sensors into new locations and designing, printing and evaluating functional components.

We are looking for someone who already has practical electronics and CAD experience and can produce careful, consistent work at an efficient pace. The successful candidate should be comfortable troubleshooting problems independently, documenting their work and completing assignments within agreed timelines.

Responsibilities

Electronics Assembly and Testing

- Assemble electronic probe and simulator components
- Solder wires, sensors, connectors and electronic components

- Work with Arduino-based microcontrollers and sensor systems
- Upload supplied firmware and configure completed devices
- Perform functional testing and identify assembly defects
- Diagnose and correct wiring, soldering, sensor and component issues
- Follow assembly instructions, wiring diagrams and quality-control checklists
- Record device identifiers, firmware versions and test results

Sensor Integration and Prototyping

- Install and integrate additional sensors into new simulator locations
- Determine suitable sensor placement, mounting methods and wiring routes
- Modify existing wiring and physical assemblies to support new sensor configurations
- Prototype and test sensor placements to evaluate detection and performance




- Troubleshoot signal, alignment and integration issues
- Document sensor configurations, wiring changes and design revisions

CAD and 3D Printing

- Design and modify functional 3D-printed parts for sensor mounts, electronics housings and simulator assemblies
- Develop and test design iterations to improve fit, durability, assembly and device performance
- Prepare models for FDM 3D printing using appropriate tolerances, orientation and supports
- Operate, calibrate and troubleshoot 3D printers
- Inspect printed parts and identify print-quality or design problems
- Assemble printed components with sensors, wiring and electronics
- Maintain organized CAD files, print settings and revision records

Required Qualifications

- Electronics Engineering Technology education or equivalent practical experience
- Strong soldering, wiring and electronics assembly skills
- Experience integrating and troubleshooting sensors in embedded or electromechanical systems
- Familiarity with microcontrollers, firmware and electronic testing
- Ability to use a multimeter and common electronics tools
- Ability to read wiring diagrams, schematics and technical assembly instructions
- Practical experience with parametric CAD software such as Fusion 360 or SolidWorks
- Experience designing functional parts for 3D printing
- Experience operating and troubleshooting FDM 3D printers
- Understanding of tolerances, fastening methods and design for assembly
- Ability to prototype, test and improve mechanical and electronic designs
- Solid attention to detail, organization and time management
- Ability to work independently and meet agreed production targets
- Located in Calgary and available for occasional in-person meetings and equipment exchanges




- Access to a suitable, secure home workspace for electronics assembly, soldering and 3D printing

Preferred Qualifications

- Graduate or experienced final-year student from an Electronics Engineering Technology, Mechanical Engineering Technology, mechatronics, robotics or related program
- Experience with Arduino microcontrollers
- Experience with robotics, sensor-based products or electromechanical systems
- Experience assembling prototypes or small production runs
- Experience creating assembly, manufacturing or testing documentation
- A portfolio showing functional parts or devices personally designed, assembled or 3D printed

Work Arrangement

This is a home-based position for someone located in Calgary. Beseem Technologies will provide the specialized equipment, components and materials required for the role.

The employee must have a suitable and secure home workspace where electronics assembly, soldering and 3D printing can be performed safely. Occasional in-person training, testing, meetings and local exchanges of equipment, materials and completed devices will be required.

Position Details

- Approximately 15 hours per week
- $34 per hour
- Initial four-week, part-time employment term
- Possibility of continued employment or increased hours based on demonstrated performance and production needs
- Some scheduling flexibility, with work completed according to agreed priorities and timelines

Application Process

Please submit your résumé along with examples of relevant hands-on work involving electronics assembly, soldering, wiring, sensors, microcontrollers, CAD, prototyping or 3D printing.

Applicants are encouraged to include photographs, links or a portfolio showing functional parts or devices they personally designed, assembled or printed. Please identify your individual contribution to any team projects included.

Selected candidates will be invited to an interview. Finalists may be asked to complete a three-hour paid practical assessment evaluating electronics assembly, troubleshooting and CAD skills.
