We are small,\nagile, and driven by quality. Here, your work has a direct impact: the documents and\ntools you create will be used by engineers and designers on real mass timber projects\nevery day.\nCompany & Role\nThe Engineering Department\nThe Engineering Department is the technical core of MTC Solutions. Its mission is to\ngenerate, validate, and distribute the data and tools that enable our customers to design\nwith confidence. The department includes two collaborative sub-teams:\n1. Research and Development (R&D):\nThe R&D team drives innovation by developing new products and generating technical\ndata through research and testing. It supports evaluation reports (ICC-ESR, CCMC),\nindustry standards, and collaborative research projects with universities and labs. Their\nfocus is to turn market needs into validated engineering solutions, the scientific\nfoundation for all MTC products.\n2. Product Application Engineering (PAE):\nThe Product Application Engineering team takes the data created by R&D and turns it\ninto the design resources used by the building community. This team creates the\ndocuments and tools that define how our products are applied in practice, from design\nguides and catalogs to calculation spreadsheets and software integrations. Their goal is\nsimple but ambitious: make it as easy as possible to specify MTC hardware in mass\ntimber projects.\nTogether, these two teams form a continuous loop:\nResearch creates knowledge → Application turns it into tools → Field feedback drives\nnew research.\nThe Product Engineer’s Place in the Team\nAs a Product Engineer, you'll be a key contributor within the Product Application Engineering team. You'll work closely with the Engineering Team Lead, Product Development Liaison, and other engineering stakeholders to develop technical resources, coordinate projects, and help shape the future of MTC's engineering tools and documentation.\nYou will:\nInterpret data from the R&D team and implement it in design documentation.\nCollaborate with the Marketing and Communication department to ensure thematerials are clear and accessible.\n\nCoordinate with Technical Service to understand where designers need moreguidance.\n\nMaintain and improve MTC’s library of design documents so that our hardwareremains the easiest to specify and use in the industry.\n\nLead technical projects involving multiple internal stakeholders, ensuring priorities, timelines, and deliverables remain aligned.\nThe Product Engineer will collaborate with:\nR&D Team: to receive and interpret testing data and technical reports.\nTechnical Service: to identify recurring customer questions and close information gaps\nMarketing Communication: to ensure that technical documents are visuallyclear and brand-consistent.\n\nBusiness Development: to align on industry needs and emerging specificationstrends\n\nExternal Research Partners: to support collaborative research initiatives and technology transfer into practical engineering resources.\nWork Environment\nYou’ll join a team that is collaborative and highly engaged in continuous learning.
