Proxxi Technology Corporation builds wearable electrical hazard alerting devices that protect industrial workers. Our flagship product, Proxxi Voltage, is a wrist-worn device distributed worldwide to major utilities and industrial companies. When you ship work here, it ends up on the wrists of people doing some of the world's most dangerous jobs.

ABOUT THE ROLE
We're hiring a Mechanical Engineer to own all mechanical aspects of every Proxxi product, current and future. This is a hands-on individual contributor role: you'll be our only full-time ME, responsible for everything from enclosure detailing and DFM through injection mold tooling, assembly process design, and manufacturing engineering. You won't be working in isolation. Our CTO (EE lead) and Head of Manufacturing both have hands in mechanical work and will be your closest collaborators. You'll also work with an external ID contractor to translate the industrial design concept into production-ready mechanical designs. Expect to be in our Gastown office most days. The physical nature of the work (prototypes, builds, test rigs, CM coordination) rewards being there in person. WHAT YOU'LL OWNTranslate ID concept into production-ready CAD: parting lines, draft angles, wall thickness, rib and boss design, snap fits IP67 waterproofing systems (gaskets, O-rings, adhesive bonding, ultrasonic welding) Integration of acoustic components, optical components, and user-interface mechanisms (buttons, band attachment) into sealed enclosures Accessory and charger mechanical systems: alignment, retention, cable management Mechanical design for future products Mold tool drawings for all injection-molded parts: gate location, ejector layout, cooling channels,



cosmetic finishing specs Manufacturing process design and yield improvement Mold maintenance and tool-life management NPI support at our contract manufacturer: Test, quality & workshop Define and execute the mechanical test plan: drop, vibration, IP67 water ingress, UV, chemical resistance, abrasion Mechanical quality standards and IQC/OQC criteria FMEA maintenance from field return data Prototyping workshop setup and ongoing management: 3D printers, CNC, hand tools, safe and well-organized workspaces 7+ years of mechanical engineering experience in consumer electronics or wearable device development You've taken injection-molded products from design through tooling to mass production: not just designed parts, but owned the tooling process NPI (Recent Product Introduction) experience at contract manufacturers: pilot builds, first article inspection, process validation, and the transition to mass production Strong proficiency in Fusion 360 or SolidWorks (we primarily use Fusion, but we'll work with you on the decision if you prefer SolidWorks) Deep DFM

skills:
injection molding, assembly design, tolerance analysis, GD&T; Hands-on waterproofing experience for IP67 or IP68 products Comfort working with North American (Canada, US, Mexico) and Asia-based contract manufacturers BONUS POINTSWrist-worn or watch-form-factor devices specifically Injection mold tool design knowledge (not just DFM) Acoustic component integration in sealed enclosures FMEA, SPC, and formal quality methodology Softgoods design (silicone, TPU, or textile watch bands) Overmolding and two-shot molding (soft-touch grips, sealed buttons, bumpers) Background in industrial or safety product development (PPE, hazard detection) Fusion 360 and SolidWorks licenses, 3D printer access, and prototyping tools provided Travel to contract manufacturers covered Hybrid schedule based in our Gastown office, with flexibility based on program phase #
