Business Systems Engineer

At CoLab, we want to help mechanical engineering teams bring life‑changing products to market years sooner.

CoLab is a cloud‑based platform for engineering design review. We make it easy for subject matter experts (SMEs) across your business to access, evaluate, and comment on 2D drawings and 3D models. Our built‑in AI peer checker, AutoReview, scans designs for common errors or non‑compliance with your standards and guidelines. AutoReview creates markups and comments on your files, in context – just like a human checker.

With CoLab, human SMEs and AI work together to help you make better decisions and improve designs faster. We automatically capture knowledge from across your global business that would otherwise be buried in emails, spreadsheets, slide decks, and unknown locations in Sharepoint or PLM. Then, we make sure every lesson learned and every design guideline is applied exactly when it matters.

Companies like Johnson Controls, Komatsu, Schaeffler, and Polaris have launched products 40% faster, cut BOM costs by 50%, and reduced quality escapes by 15% in 1 year.

About the Role We’ve built a product that’s transforming how engineering teams work. Now we’re turning that same lens inward.

As our first Business Systems Engineer, you’ll connect the systems that run our business—Slack, Notion, Gong, HubSpot, G‑Suite, GitHub, Mixpanel, Figma, Linear, ChatGPT—and turn scattered data into clear, decision‑ready insight.

You’ll use tools like Retool and well‑documented APIs to rapidly prototype internal integrations, automate workflows, and build dashboards people actually use. The goal is for this person to have strong UI skills.

You’ll work closely with RevOps, Product, Finance and other business areas to understand messy, real‑world problems—often from people who aren’t technical—and translate them into clean, secure integrations and intuitive UIs.

If you like being a force multiplier—unlocking disproportionate value with relatively small technical effort—you’ll love this role.

Our Ideal Candidate Job Responsibilities

Build and maintain internal integrations using Retool and APIs (Slack, Notion, Gong, HubSpot, GitHub, Mixpanel, etc.)

Design and ship clean, intuitive internal dashboards that drive executive and team decisions

Partner with functional leaders to identify high‑leverage automation opportunities

Ensure data security, access controls, and responsible handling of sensitive information

Consolidate data from multiple sources into clear, reliable internal reporting views

Gradually evolve prototypes into more robust internal applications as needs mature

Qualifications

Experience working with APIs and integrating SaaS tools

Experience with (or strong interest in) Retool or similar low‑code platforms

Comfort working cross‑functionally with non‑technical stakeholders

Clear understanding of data privacy and security best practices

Bonus: Experience in RevOps, internal tooling, analytics, or startup environments.

Competitive salary and equity package

Extended health benefits and unlimited paid vacation

Remote‑first across Canada

Equity Note Frequently cited statistics show that people who identify with historically marginalized groups are likely to apply to jobs only if they meet 100% of the qualifications. We encourage you to help us break that statistic and apply even if you don’t meet every single qualification—your potential is what matters most to us.
