Full Transparency: We Work a Little Differently Around Here.

This isn't just another job where you punch in and punch out. We come to work every day because we strive to earn a living in a meaningful way. Too many people exist without finding joy or purpose in their work, and we believe that's just wrong. After all, we spend at least a third of our lives working - so why not create workplaces where people want to come to work in the morning and feel good when they leave at the end of the day?

At Protocase, your ideas don't just matter - they shape our future. We thrive on collaboration and innovation, where every voice is heard, valued, and makes a real impact. Does this sound like something you'd want to be a part of and help grow?

Protocase specializes in custom sheet metal enclosures, panels, and parts for engineers and innovators worldwide, built with unmatched speed and quality. We take the impossible and make it possible for some of the brightest minds on the planet.

Availability to work full-time, 40 hours per week, from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
Ability to stand for extended periods.
Ability to bend and kneel as required.
Ability to lift up to 50 lbs.
Ability to work independently while also supporting senior technicians and contributing as part of a team.
Comfortable working in a fast-paced custom manufacturing environment.

The following qualifications are not required, but would be considered an asset.

Previous hands-on experience with manufacturing equipment, machinery, or industrial maintenance.
Exposure to CNC machines, press brakes, or other manufacturing equipment.
Experience working with mechanical, pneumatic, or electrical systems through coursework, labs, previous employment, or personal projects.
Familiarity with preventative maintenance practices.
Experience working in a manufacturing, industrial, mechanical, or shop environment.

What Success Looks Like

By the end of your 16-week work term, you will:

Develop a practical understanding of preventative maintenance in a manufacturing environment.
Safely and confidently use common hand and power tools.
Build familiarity with mechanical, pneumatic, and electrical systems used throughout our facility.
Assist senior technicians with routine maintenance and basic troubleshooting tasks.
Demonstrate strong safety awareness and maintain clean, organized work areas.
Build productive working relationships with maintenance technicians and other team members.
Take increasing ownership of routine maintenance tasks as your skills and confidence develop.
Leave the term with meaningful hands-on experience working with real manufacturing equipment.

Why Us?
