Product Engineer

Position Overview

The Product Engineer is part of MTC Solutions' Product Application Engineering team,
the group responsible for transforming product data and research findings into design
tools that enable engineers and designers to specify and apply our hardware confidently.
In this role, you'll translate engineering test data and research outcomes into clear,
practical, and user-friendly documentation, including design guides, white papers,
catalogs, spreadsheets, and digital tools. You'll work at the intersection of technical
precision and communication clarity, helping engineers across North America design
better timber connections with MTC hardware.

Primary Responsibilities:

• Develop Technical Documentation: Create and update design guides, white papers,
  and catalog content that communicates how to design with MTC hardware.
• Analyze and Apply Data: Interpret test results and research findings to produce design
  parameters and engineering tables.
• Integrate Codes and Standards: Apply relevant design codes (CSA O86, NDS,
  Eurocode 5, AS/NZS) and document appropriate assumptions and limits.
• Collaborate Across Teams: Work with the R&D team to incorporate data, Marketing to
  refine visual layout and UX/UI, and Technical Service to address recurring industry
  questions.
• Contribute to Design Tools: Assist in creating calculation spreadsheets and digital
  integrations (e.g., CADwork plugins or software tools).
• Support Continuous Improvement: Identify gaps or ambiguities in existing resources
  and propose updates that simplify the designer experience.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Civil, Structural, or Timber Engineering (or equivalent
  background).
• 1–5 years of experience in wood design, structural connections, or technical
  documentation (intermediate preferred, junior considered).
• Familiarity with design codes (CSA O86, NDS, etc.).
• Strong technical writing and data-analysis skills.
• Excellent organization and attention to detail.
• Proficiency in English required.
  

Location: Greater Vancouver, Ontario and Quebec.

Salary Range: $70,000.00 to $100, Based on experience).

Who You Are

You are a technically curious and detail-oriented engineer who enjoys bridging the gap
between complex data and practical design solutions. You take pride in clarity, turning
dense calculations into information that others can trust and easily apply. You're
motivated by collaboration, open to feedback, and thrive in an environment where
engineering, creativity, and communication meet.

About MTC Solutions

MTC Solutions is a North American leader in mass timber connection technology. We
design, test, and supply structural hardware that helps engineers and builders realize
safe, efficient, and beautiful timber structures. Our competitive edge comes from our
technical credibility and our ability to translate complex research into usable design
solutions.

Why Join MTC Solutions

At MTC Solutions, you'll be part of a passionate, close-knit engineering team that is
shaping the future of mass timber construction across North America. We are small,
agile, and driven by quality. Here, your work has a direct impact: the documents and
tools you create will be used by engineers and designers on real mass timber projects
every day.

Company & Role

The Engineering R&D & Technical Service Department
The Engineering Department is the technical core of MTC Solutions. Its mission is to
generate, validate, and distribute the data and tools that enable our customers to design
with confidence. The department includes two collaborative sub-teams:
1. Research R&D Development (R&D):
The R&D team drives innovation by developing new products and generating technical
data through research and testing. It supports evaluation reports (ICC-ESR, CCMC),
industry standards, and collaborative research projects with universities and labs. Their
focus is to turn market needs into validated engineering solutions, the scientific
foundation for all MTC products.
2. Product Application Engineering (PAE):
The Product Application Engineering team takes the data created by R&D and turns it
into the design resources used by the building community. This team creates the
documents and tools that define how our products are applied in practice, from design
guides and catalogs to calculation spreadsheets and software integrations. Their goal is
simple but ambitious: make it as easy as possible to specify MTC hardware in mass
timber projects.
Together, these two teams form a continuous loop:
Research creates knowledge → Application turns it into tools → Field feedback drives
new research.

The Product Engineer's Place in the Team
As a Product Engineer, you'll be a key contributor within the Product Application team.
You'll work closely with the Engineering Team Lead, Senior Product Engineer, and
Product Development Engineer, to transform technical information into industry-leading
resources.
You will:

• Interpret data from the R&D team and implement it in design documentation.
  
• Collaborate with the Marketing and Communication department to ensure The 
  materials are clear and accessible.
  
• Coordinate with Technical Service to understand where designers need more
  guidance.
  
• Maintain and improve MTC's library of design documents so that our hardware
  remains the easiest to specify and use in the industry.

The Product Engineer will collaborate with:

• R&D Team: to receive and interpret testing data and technical reports.
  
• Technical Service: to identify recurring customer questions and close information gaps
  
• Marketing & R&D Communication: to ensure that technical documents are visually
  clear and brand-consistent.
  
• Business Development: to align on industry needs and emerging specifications
  trends.
  

Work Environment
You'll join a team that is collaborative and highly engaged in continuous learning. The 
Engineering Department is known for its attention to detail and its commitment to
publishing only the highest-quality technical resources. You'll be supported by mentors
and peers who share a common goal: to elevate engineering practice within the mass
timber industry.

Why This Role Matters
Every MTC document and tool represents a promise to the design community: that our
data is accurate, our recommendations are trustworthy, and our products are ready to
perform. As a Product Engineer, you help uphold that promise. Your contribution will

shape how designers interact with mass timber hardware and how our brand continues
to lead in clarity and credibility.
