At CoLab, we help mechanical engineering teams bring life-changing products to market years sooner.
We build AI for engineers designing cars, medical devices, and jet engines. Products this complex aren't sketched and sent to production. Teams spend months on iterations, reviews, and tests, predicting how every part performs before anything is built. CoLab is where those reviews happen, and we capture the rationale behind every change. Other tools show what changed between versions. Only CoLab knows why. That's how our AI helps manufacturers like Bobcat, Triumph Motorcycles, and GE Appliances make better decisions, eliminate rework cycles, and get to market faster.
Proudly based in St. John’s, Newfoundland, CoLab started with one customer in 2018. Since then we’ve raised a $72M Series C, been named the 57th fastest growing company in North America by Deloitte (Fast 500™), signed multi-year AI partnerships with companies like Bombardier, and grown to a team of 250+.
We’re hiring an Engineering Manager to lead the team building AutoReview—CoLab’s AI-powered capabilities for automating mechanical design review.
This is a people leadership role that requires real technical depth. You won’t need to be the engineer writing every solution, but you should understand software and web architecture well enough to pressure-test an approach, spot when an estimate doesn’t add up, and ask the question that changes the conversation.
You’ll work closely with Product to turn broad ideas into a roadmap the team can confidently execute. That includes making early calls on feasibility and scope, then giving engineers the context and autonomy to work through the details.
The technical problems are substantial: DFM checks, clash detection, BOM consolidation, clearance analysis, bulk AutoReview workflows, and increasingly, the intersection of 2D engineering data and machine learning.
This is a full-time, permanent position with a competitive compensation package that includes stock options. We offer comprehensive benefits and flexible vacation. This is a remote position open in Canada and the US.
Frequently cited statistics show that people who identify with historically marginalized groups are likely to apply to jobs only if they meet 100% of the qualifications. We encourage you to help us break that statistic and apply even if you don’t meet every single qualification—your potential is what matters most to us.
