A Century of Stability. A Future of Innovation.Join a global leader with a legacy of precision. While Tsubaki has been a mainstay in Canadian manufacturing since 1973, our parent company was founded in Japan in 1917. We are world-renowned for our power transmission and chain products, built on a foundation of quality, longevity, and the "Tsubaki Standard."
We are currently modernizing our Ruskin facility by integrating CNC and Collaborative Robotics (Cobots). We are looking for a Red Seal Journeyperson with a CWB Welding Supervisor designation to anchor our technical standards as we grow.
The Role:Craftsmanship Augmented by Tech.In this role, your expertise is the priority. We are introducing Cobots not to replace the welder, but to augment the craft. The Cobots handle repetitive, high-volume tasks, allowing you to focus on high-skill assemblies, custom fit-ups, and maintaining our CWB technical excellence.
As our Designated CWB Supervisor (Technical/Quality Focus):
- Technical Authority: Act as our primary liaison for the CWB Representative; manage all CWB paperwork, procedures, and welder qualifications.
- Precision Fabrication: Layout and weld components (hubs, sprockets, and chain drums) using arc and gas equipment.
- Quality Leadership: Perform visual inspections and use precision tools (calipers) to ensure every piece meets our global standards.
- Modernization Lead: Work alongside our new automated systems, ensuring the "human element" of quality is maintained in every weld.
Why Tsubaki? (The Total Package):
- A Better Commute: Located in the Ruskin area, our facility offers a smooth drive for those living in Mission, Abbotsford, Langley, or the Tri-Cities. Skip the bridge-and-tunnel gridlock and spend more time at home, not in your vehicle.
- Financial Growth: Competitive hourly rates, RRSP Contribution Matching, and a Profit Sharing program.
- Comprehensive Benefits: Full Health, Dental, Vision, and Flexible Medical/Flex coverage.
- Tooling & Safety: Annual Boot Allowance and a clean, organized shop environment.
- Work-Life Balance: A reliable Monday–Friday day shift. No weekends or overnight shifts.
What You Bring:
- Certification: Valid Red Seal Journeyperson Welder certification (Required).
- Designation: Current CWB Welding Supervisor accreditation.
- The Craftsman Mindset: You take pride in your work and are excited to see how modern automation can improve ergonomics and shop efficiency.
