Your gender, your beliefs, your love life, your skin, your abilities — all of it belongs here.


At Fittes, we celebrate diversity of background and diversity of thought. We are progressive, open-minded, and intentional about building a team that reflects different perspectives. That’s what pushes us to think differently and outperform our competitors.


If you’re excellent at what you do and committed to doing the work well, we welcome you, exactly as you are.

Don’t meet every single requirement? Research shows that women and people of colour are less likely to apply unless they meet 100% of the qualifications.

About Fittes

At Fittes, we’re on a mission to make the mundane exciting. We elevate unloved products with fresh design, bringing a new-school approach to an old-school industry. We’re a dynamic, female-owned-and-led product design company in Toronto experiencing exciting growth. We’re a team of disruptors driven by ambition, creativity, and accountability.

Collaboration, humility, and intentionality define our work environment, and our team’s results speak for themselves.

Curious about our work? We started with the first modular air register designed to customize to any surface, and have since expanded into multiple product categories. We’re a team focused on building something extraordinary and long-lasting, for both our customers and our people. See more on our Instagram, Glassdoor and website!


The Opportunity 

This is a hands-on, high-ownership co-op for an engineering student who wants to help ship real products—not shadow someone else’s.



Our Product team is launching new products and expanding existing lines faster than our current capacity allows. You’ll report to our Product Engineer and become the person who keeps launches moving: updating SolidWorks models and drawings, validating manufacturing samples, building test fixtures and running tests, and preparing the production packages our manufacturers build from. The work splits roughly 50/50 between manufacturing support and product development, and the balance shifts with the launch calendar.



Within your first month, you’ll be turning around drawing updates at the same pace as our team. By the end of your term, you’ll have tangible projects you can point to: a problem you found, a solution you tested, and results you quantified.



This is an execution-first role. Priorities move quickly, and you’ll often carry more than one urgent deliverable at a time. We need someone who flags conflicts early and brings options, not someone who waits to be told what’s next.

What you’ll be doing:


Manufacturing & Production Support [40%]
