Job Type: Direct Hire
Category: Engineering
Location: Calgary, Alberta
Our client is excited to welcome a Production Engineer I to their close-knit and collaborative team within the Lighting Manufacturing space. This is a great opportunity for an early-career engineer who enjoys being hands-on, learning from experienced teammates, and seeing their work move from concept through to production.
The ideal candidate brings 2+ years of experience in a mechanical or electrical engineering environment, ideally within manufacturing or product-based industries. You'll thrive here if you're naturally curious, approachable, and comfortable working across departments - taking information from multiple stakeholders and turning it into clear, actionable next steps.
This role suits someone who values teamwork but is equally confident working independently, managing priorities, and taking ownership of their work without constant oversight. If you're looking to join a knowledgeable and welcoming team who fosters growth and collaboration, this could be the perfect job for you!
