Your Opportunity at ARC’TERYX:

As the Lab and Workshop Technical Lead on our Advanced Concepts team, you lead the operation, evolution, and strategic development of our technical, scientific, and engineering facilities, including our Workshop, Mountain Athlete Lab, and Materials Lab.

Fueled by curiosity, we take a holistic approach to identifying future needs and tangible solutions across advanced materials, products, technologies, and experiences. We are a team of builders, problem solvers and outdoor enthusiasts. Our in-house end-to-end capabilities in research, engineering, design, development, digital and validation allow us to innovate head-to-toe solutions that bring the coast mountain experience to the world. Our unique methodology, mindset of sustainability and fanatic passion for product are at the heart of what we do.

If you were the Lab and Workshop Technical Lead now, here are some of the core activities you would be doing:

Managing lab and workshop equipment by coordinating selection, procurement, installation, training, calibration, and maintenance
Supporting Advanced Concepts projects through fabrication, rapid prototyping, machine operation, and test setup to enable high-performance solutions for mountain athletes
Maintaining organized, efficient, and collaborative lab and workshop spaces, with a forward-thinking approach to space utilization
Managing laboratory scheduling and resource allocation to support project priorities
Maintaining equipment logs, including calibration schedules and service records
Championing creation and testing capabilities by leading workshops, coordinating equipment training, and onboarding new users
Supporting the team in developing and maintaining Standard Operating Procedures and training documentation
Ensuring compliance with safety standards and applicable regulatory requirements
Troubleshooting equipment and testing challenges, engaging external partners as needed

Supporting the compilation of project scope, activities, and expenditures for submission to funding programs (e.g., SR&ED, IRAP, NRC, MITACS)
Maintaining current knowledge of industry technologies, equipment, and best practices through ongoing learning and hands-on experience

Here are some of the things you could be working on in the future:

Collaborating with Advanced Concepts team members to evolve how we test products in both mountain and lab environments, including enabling data capture in harsh conditions and developing representative lab environments
Operating and continuously improving lab and workshop workflows, scheduling, and maintenance systems
Purchasing, installing, and implementing new testing and prototyping equipment.
Building new capabilities for the fabrication and testing of novel apparel and equipment concepts
Maintaining high-performance, well-equipped facilities that enable researchers, designers, and engineers to operate at their best
