Full job description

Special Project Summary:

Reporting to the SVP of Engineering, the Engineering Student will be focused on a building a database repository of pre-approved, Konstant-engineered designs of steel storage rack structures with ﬁltered search functionality. The database will be largely populated using past design speciﬁcations of components and connections in Excel format that fall within a pre-deﬁned framework of technical parameters. Where gaps in existing design scenarios are identiﬁed, Konstant Engineering will assist in proving the necessary design speciﬁcations to build a robust matrix of storage rack bay conﬁgurations and loading conditions.

The Engineering Student will be provided the necessary training on Konstant’s product offering, industry nomenclature, and fundamentals of structural analysis and design of steel storage rack systems comprised of cold-formed and hot-rolled sections to demonstrate compliance with current applicable standards and building codes. Tours of Konstant’s central warehouse and manufacturing plant will supplement the formatted training program to familiarize the successful candidate with the fabrication and assembly of the structures under study.

Critical Success Factors for the Function:

Can be counted on to provide accurate and complete deliverables with respect to engineering-related requests
Uses rigorous logic and methods to solve difficult problems with effective solutions; probes all fruitful sources for answers; can see hidden problems; is excellent at honest analysis; looks beyond the obvious
Skilled at ﬁguring out the processes necessary to get things done; understands how to separate and combine tasks into efficient workﬂow; can see opportunities for synergy and integration; can simplify complex processes
Enjoys working hard; is action oriented and full of energy for the things he/she sees as challenging; not fearful of acting with proper planning while seizing more opportunities

Competencies:

Technical Knowledge
Critical Problem-Solving
Strategic Thinking
Organizational Savvy
Collaborates Skillfully

Qualiﬁcations:

Currently pursuing (2 to 3 full years) or completed a Bachelor’s Degree in Civil Engineering (Structural focus) from an accredited Canadian university program
Proﬁcient in using MS Excel, AutoCAD, Python, and SQL to build a database tool with front-end dashboard query functionality
Good working knowledge of National Building Code of Canada, CSA S16, and CSA S136
Review engineering drawings and technical speciﬁcations of industrial rack systems as needed
Conduct basic structural analysis and assessments of new and existing storage rack structures
Analytical and mathematical mind, capable of evaluating and solving technical problems with practical solutions
Good knowledge of data analysis and risk assessment
Organizational competencies and project management skills to keep engineering requests and processes on track
Self-motivated attitude with the ability to multitask and thrive in a timeline-driven environment
Interpersonal communication skills with expertise in distilling complicated topics to a broader audience
Ability to produce complete and accurate technical reports or summaries
Experience in material handling (storage, lift trucks, conveyors, etc.), metal fabrication or construction is an asset
Valid Ontario driver’s license with access to reliable means of transportation

The Engineering Student is required to acquire new job-relevant knowledge and skills through self-study and by participating in training or other learning activities offered by Konstant. It is also expected that work beyond normal working hours may need to meet critical project milestones.

This is an excellent opportunity to learn about the rapidly evolving material handling industry. All work will be performed under the oversight of a Professional Engineer. Work experience will be supported and acknowledged by Konstant for candidates working towards an Engineer-in-Training program or P.Eng. designation.
