At CoLab, we help mechanical engineering teams bring life-changing products to market years sooner.
CoLab is the AI platform for driving stronger engineering decisions. Every design review in CoLab builds a knowledge repository of design feedback, decisions, and lessons learned - which AI agents draw from to flag issues on future designs before they compound. The more your team works in CoLab, the smarter it gets and the faster you arrive at the ideal design. Companies like Ford, Komatsu, and Johnson Controls use CoLab to catch issues earlier, eliminate rework cycles, and bring products to market faster.
Founded in St. Johns, Newfoundland, CoLab has grown quickly from our first customer in 2019 to a rapidly scaling company. Weve recently been recognized on Deloittes Fast 50 and Fast 500, and named a Canadian company to watch by The Globe and Mail and Financial Post.
About the Role
CoLabs AutoReview product is a core part of how we bring AI and engineering expertise together to improve design quality. So far, much of that work has focused on 2D drawings. Now, were building the future of 3D AutoReview and we need a backend engineer whos excited to help in that mission.
Youll join the AutoReview team and help build the systems that power intelligent 3D design analysis at scale. That includes everything from geometry parsing and model analysis to backend infrastructure, rule systems, and AI-assisted review workflows. This is deeply technical, multidisciplinary work that sits at the intersection of backend engineering, CAD systems, and machine learning.
Youll spend time experimenting, testing assumptions, and solving problems that dont have obvious answers. You wont be handed perfectly scoped projects or detailed specs. But you will get ownership, support, and the opportunity to shape how AI-driven design review evolves inside some of the worlds leading engineering organizations.
Our Ideal Candidate
Youve got solid backend engineering experience, ideally with exposure to 3D CAD modeling or using tools like OpenCascade or Parasolid. Youre comfortable with math-heavy problems (linear algebra, vector calculus), and bonus points if youve worked in ML/LLM environments or with HOOPS.
You like to understand the why behind the work and communicate it clearly. You thrive in ambiguity and dont wait for someone else to go first. If somethings unclear, you figure it outand then explain it to the rest of the team. Youre ready to be the go-to person for 3D anomalous within the AutoReview space and help others get up to speed.
