About the role
The Role
Pason is seeking a Mechanical Design Intern for a 16-month internship from May 2026 until August 2027. Interns can expect to see their projects from initial design, through prototyping, and testing, and on to full production in a single work term. Pason prides itself on giving full product design responsibility to its interns, thereby allowing them to have a powerful learning experience while on their work term. This position is very similar to a junior engineering position.
Essential Duties and Responsibilities
- Work with field technicians, peers within the team, and others on gathering specific requirements for a design request
- Use SolidWorks to design parts and assemblies as well as prepare drawings for machine shops
- Work with machine shops and part vendors to establish pricing and build prototypes of designs
- Prepare test fixtures and conduct tests on the design against established requirements
- Provide support to engineers from the Research & Development Hardware team and field technicians
- Test new and existing products and theories
- Brainstorm new product ideas
- Write and modify assembly procedures and bill-of-materials tables for outsourced manufacturing
- Operate various tools (including a milling machine) for rapid in-house prototyping
- On some occasions, perform field installations and rig trials
- Analyze product failures from the field to assess improvement opportunities
Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills
- Excellent attention to detail
- Excellent interpersonal interaction skills
- Strong mechanical design skills (machine component design, strength of materials, heat transfer, fluid mechanics, corrosion, drawing, dimension tolerances etc.) are an asset
- Strong commitment to quality
- Experience with SolidWorks would be an asset
- Uploading samples of technical documents and SolidWorks files to demonstrate skills is beneficial
Education
- Currently enrolled in 3rd year curriculum in Mechanical or Manufacturing Engineering
Pre-employment Conditions
- Completion of a satisfactory Criminal Record Check
This job posting closes October 15, please ensure you have your application in before the deadline.
