About the Role  We are seeking a talented 3D Computational Designer to join our team developing next-generation biomedical products, including custom CPAP masks and facial equipment optimized for individual comfort, fit, and performance. This role will involve leveraging Python-based 3D modeling tools such as Open3D, trimesh, and Blender’s Python API (bpy) to create parametric, procedural models that integrate facial scan data and are optimized for additive manufacturing.
This position offers an exciting opportunity to combine computational design, product development, and biomedical innovation in a dynamic, cross-functional environment.
Responsibilities   Develop procedural 3D models using Python libraries (Open3D, trimesh, bpy) for facial equipment and CPAP mask designs.
Process and integrate facial scan data (e.g., point clouds or meshes) into design workflows for ergonomic fit and precision.
Build custom automation tools and Blender add-ons to optimize and streamline modeling pipelines.
Collaborate closely with engineers and designers to ensure manufacturability and alignment with 3D printing constraints.
Prototype and iterate on models, validating designs through performance testing and feedback loops.
Document design scripts, workflows, and specifications to ensure scalability and reproducibility.
Stay current on advancements in computational design, biomedical modeling, and 3D printing technologies.

Skills and Qualifications   Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Industrial Design, or a related field.
Proficiency in  Python  for 3D modeling, with hands-on experience using  Open3D ,  trimesh , and  Blender’s Python API (bpy) .
Strong understanding of  3D geometry, mesh processing , and  procedural modeling techniques .
Familiarity with  3D printing workflows  and  CAD tools  (e.g., Solid Works, Fusion 360).
Experience working with  3D scan data  (e.g., AR or photogrammetry-based facial scanning).
Proven track record of developing functional, ergonomic 3D models or products.
Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to translate complex requirements into efficient solutions.
Strong communication and collaboration skills, with experience in cross-disciplinary teams.
Bonus   

Experience with biomedical or ergonomic product design.
Familiarity with  facial scanning technologies  such as Mask Fit AR.
Background in  generative design  or  machine learning-driven 3D modeling .
Compensation   From $85,000 to $95,000 CAD per annum, depending on experience.
Comprehensive medical and dental benefits.
3 weeks vacation.
Tuition Assistance Program.
Multiple company events throughout the year.
Work Arrangement  Hybrid (primarily based in Burnaby, with occasional work required at our Port Coquitlam facility).
