Manufacturing Engineering Technician

Description

IEM Canada is looking for a Manufacturing Engineering Technician to assemble metal‑based modular work‑bench and material‑storage systems for manufacturing floor work centers. Reporting to the Engineering Tech Supervisor, the role works closely with operations, continuous improvement, quality, and process engineering teams to deliver the required equipment.

• Read and follow engineering drawings, specifications, and BOMs to assemble modular work bench/storage systems.
• Use measuring tools (scales, gauges, micrometers, calipers, etc.) to ensure precise assembly.
• Install electrical components such as lights, switches, motors, relays, contactors, and I/O devices.
• Perform drilling, tapping, punching, and mounting of modular components per instructions.
• Collaborate with cross‑functional teams on new manufacturing technologies and process changes.
• Contribute to workbench/material replenishment system design, redesign, or modifications.
• Participate in continuous improvement projects to boost efficiency and reduce waste.
• Support Lean Manufacturing and other improvement methodologies.
• Adhere to safety, quality, and regulatory guidelines.

Requirements

The position involves both physical and mental demands. Employees sit only 5 % of the time and spend the majority standing, walking, lifting up to 50 lb, and performing tasks that require bending, squatting, crawling, and climbing in a non‑climate‑controlled shop environment with exposure to heat, cold, humidity, noise, dust, and fumes. The role also requires interpreting drawings, analyzing multiple tasks simultaneously, and maintaining close visual focus on small details.

• High school diploma or GED; technical certification or associate degree in electronics or electromechanics preferred.
• Minimum 2 years of manufacturing or assembly experience, preferably with electrical/industrial equipment.
• Strong mechanical/electrical systems knowledge and proficiency with hand and power tools.
• Ability to interpret assembly drawings and electrical schematics independently.
• Mechanical aptitude with quick, accurate hand work and high‑quality output.
• Strong work ethic, motivation to learn, and team‑player attitude.
• Good problem‑solving skills, attention to detail, and commitment to safety.
• Ability to lift up to 50 lb and stand for extended periods.
