Mechanical Designer (Concord, ON)

SENIOR MOULD DESIGNER (DESIGNER – LEVEL 3)

Engineering | Automotive Tooling | On-site, Ontario

A leading Tier 1 automotive tooling manufacturer is looking for an

advanced Mould Designer to join its Engineering team. If you live and

breathe complex tool design and want to work on high-visibility exterior

tooling programs for a global customer base, this is your seat.

In this role you'll design moulds, fixtures and components from part

drawings, math data or verbal specs, including complex, non-routine

work — using advanced CAD. You'll own single-tool projects, mentor

junior designers, and have a real voice in how tools get built.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Design fascia tooling (hidden parting line and conventional) and trim tooling — rockers, claddings, wheel flares and more

• Own single-tool design projects end to end

• Design water, boring mill and 3D contour features, collaborating across disciplines so design-for-manufacture is always considered

• Run part feasibility studies on upcoming programs — cooling, steel condition, proper draft, the works

• Review tool designs from external partners and give the feedback that keeps quality where it needs to be

• Partner with estimating and program managers on new tooling and engineering-change quotes

• Manage engineering changes — preparing and issuing files internally and to outside partners

• Lead and document internal and external design reviews

• Mentor Trainee, Level 1 and Level 2 designers to grow the whole team

• Benchmark new tooling and equipment and provide sharp, timely feedback

• Work cross-functionally with Design, Machining, Build, Scheduling and Management to hit program timing

• Support Continuous Improvement, lean manufacturing and ISO-9001 quality systems

• Travel occasionally for benchmarking, investigation or training

WHAT YOU BRING

• Completion of the Designer Level 2 training matrix (or equivalent advanced tool-design experience)

• Strong working knowledge of Siemens NX Mold Wizard across all facets of tool design

• Strong mathematical and mechanical aptitude

• A strategic problem-solver who stays sharp under pressure

• Solid communication skills, written and verbal

• Comfort with Microsoft Office (Word, Excel)

• Grade 12 diploma required; a college diploma or degree in a relevant technical field (or equivalent experience) is an asset

WHO THRIVES HERE

• Self-motivated team players with a positive, service-oriented mindset

• Designers who take pride in their work and want to keep leveling up

• People who collaborate well and lift the team around them

This is a hands-on role with real ownership, strong mentorship, and the

kind of complex tooling work that keeps the job interesting. If that

sounds like you, we'd like to talk.
