What we offer

The Product Engineering Associate will work closely with senior team members to design and analyze solutions for SAMI’s modular and prefabricated systems. This role will focus on performance-driven engineering design — balancing cost, manufacturability, and performance — to ensure our products are competitive, scalable, and ready for production. In our design-build environment, you will collaborate directly with suppliers, fabricators, and consultants to integrate technical solutions early in the design process, ensuring seamless translation from concept to manufacturing. The ideal candidate will be analytical, detail-oriented, and passionate about applying innovative materials and methods to offsite construction.

What you’ll do

• Design and analyze components and assemblies for all scopes in modular and prefabricated construction.
• Optimize designs for manufacturing through value engineering, balancing performance, durability, cost, and ease of installation.
• Solve complex, highly technical engineering challenges with new and innovative methods.
• Conduct trade‑off analyses on alternate material and system options, preparing business cases to support recommendations.
• Create detailed analyses and documentation for manufacturing of components and systems.
• Lead technical discussions with suppliers to review product capabilities, integration requirements, and manufacturing compatibility.
• Collaborate with procurement to evaluate pricing, lead times, and supply chain considerations.
• Maintain internal product data libraries with dimensions, performance ratings, and compliance documentation.
• Stay informed on emerging technologies, industry trends, and best practices, to inform product development roadmaps.
• Track and document design changes and product iterations for continuous improvement.
• Other duties as assigned.

What you bring

• Post‑secondary education in Engineering.
• 3‑5 years of experience in engineering or component design.
• Broad knowledge of building materials and systems across multiple scopes, including exterior, interior, structural, electrical, and mechanical elements.
• Experience with REVIT, AutoCAD or SolidWorks.
• Experience with finite element analysis (FEA).
• Experience in value engineering and balancing cost, performance, and manufacturability.
• Familiarity with structural, architectural, and MEP considerations in building systems.
• Strong communication skills for engaging in technical, solution‑focused discussions with suppliers and consultants.

Bonus Points

• Experience in modular construction, prefabrication, or offsite manufacturing.
• P. Eng designation.
• Familiarity with construction product testing, certification, and compliance processes.
