At CoLab, we help mechanical engineering teams bring life-changing products to market years sooner.
CoLab is the AI platform for driving stronger engineering decisions. Every design review in CoLab builds a knowledge repository of design feedback, decisions, and lessons learned - which AI agents draw from to flag issues on future designs before they compound. The more your team works in CoLab, the smarter it gets and the faster you arrive at the ideal design. Companies like Ford, Komatsu, and Johnson Controls use CoLab to catch issues earlier, eliminate rework cycles, and bring products to market faster.
Founded in St. John’s, Newfoundland, CoLab has grown quickly from our first customer in 2019 to a rapidly scaling company. We’ve recently been recognized on Deloitte’s Fast 50™ and Fast 500™, and named a Canadian company to watch by The Globe and Mail and Financial Post.
This role owns paid distribution at CoLab. You’ll own the performance, growth, and evolution of our paid media program — with LinkedIn as the primary channel, but not the only one. Your job is to take what’s already working, improve it month over month, and expand into new channels that help us reach the right buyers in new ways.
That means running and scaling LinkedIn paid social, owning our paid newsletter program, and designing thoughtful experiments in emerging or underutilized channels (e.g., Reddit, YouTube, or others we haven’t tried yet).
This is not a role for someone who is only comfortable in ad platforms. You’ll be expected to connect platform data, CRM data, and real customer behavior to understand which campaigns drive revenue and why. You are equally comfortable doing quantitative funnel analysis in spreadsheets, refining copy with product marketing, and hashing out creative ideas with the brand design team.
You understand that paid social is an interruption, not a response to existing demand. You know how to create campaigns that earn attention on platforms where people are not actively looking for a product and how to translate a message into a cohesive set of image, carousel, and video ads that work together as a concept.
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, can analyze designs for you and spot 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.
