Job description

About Justrite Safety Group

At Justrite Safety Group, we're more than just a collection of industrial safety companies; we're a dynamic organization dedicated to protecting people, property, and the planet. Our ever-growing portfolio of companies collaborates to deliver advanced industrial safety solutions that set the standard for excellence.

As our business continues to grow, we continue to look for top talent to join our team as we lead the charge in revolutionising industrial safety, ensuring that every worker returns home safe, every workplace remains secure, and our environment thrives for generations to come. With Justrite Safety Group, safety isn't just a priority-it's our passion.

The Contribution You'll bring to this Role:

AccuformNMC is investing in a new generation of workplace-safety products and building a small, highly focused product-development team.

We are looking for a Product Development Engineer who likes to figure things out, build prototypes, integrate technologies and turn ideas into working products.

This is not a narrow engineering role. You will be the technical builder and integrator inside a small team, working with external engineering specialists, prototype shops, component suppliers, contract manufacturers and our own Operations organization to move new products quickly from concept toward commercial reality.

We are not looking for someone who believes every component must be designed from scratch. We want someone who can determine what should be built, what should be bought, what should be outsourced, what needs to be tested and how quickly we can find out whether the idea works.

You will also help build the internal prototype and test capability needed to support future product development.

About the Team:

Our Product Development team is at the forefront of turning customer needs and market opportunity into products that are ready to build, sell, and support. We own the path from concept through launch, working closely with engineering, operations, sales, and customers to define requirements, make clear tradeoffs, and deliver solutions that perform in the real world. With a focus on practical innovation, cross-functional collaboration, and disciplined execution, the team improves how products are designed, developed, and brought to market. Always forward-looking, Product Development plays a critical role in shaping our product strategy and positioning us for long-term success in a competitive marketplace.

What You'll Do at Justrite:

Turn Concepts Into Working Products

• Translate product requirements into practical technical approaches.
• Evaluate commercially available technologies, components and platforms and determine the most effective path to a working solution.
• Build, modify, integrate and test prototypes.
• Identify technical risks early and design practical tests to answer the questions that matter.
• Rapidly iterate based on testing, customer feedback and manufacturing input.

Be the Technical Integrator

• Own the technical integration of products even when individual components or subsystems are developed externally.
• Work across electrical, controls, sensing, connectivity, mechanical integration and other relevant technologies.
• Review outside engineering work, technical specifications, prototypes and design decisions.
• Challenge solutions that are unnecessarily complex, expensive, unreliable or slow to develop.
• Coordinate technical interfaces between external engineering firms, suppliers, contract manufacturers, Operations and IT.
• Coordinate software and data architecture decisions with IT and appropriate technical partners.
