Depending on the daily tasks to be performed, working from home may be possible. However, as we often need laboratory equipment and great collaboration between the R&D teams is essential, the hardware designer must be able to come to the office with short notice if necessary.

If you are meticulous, a problem solver, and a team player, you will feel right at home. Please send your cover letter and resume to jobs@eers.ca OR submit them through our EERS Career platform.
