    What we do

    Isaac delivers increased profit through performance improvement of any manufacturing, engineering or business process. We are engineers and computer science graduates who use our technical ability to solve problems in a broad variety of settings – from ice cream to submarines. As a lead developer you will be responsible of owning the entire life cycle of our product development from design to implementation.

    How we do it

    We work with all levels of a business from the shop floor to the boardroom, on a daily basis. By spending our time on the front line with a welder, machine operator or technician, we can fully understand the problems that they face. We utilize this understanding to design and develop tools to help our clients and consultants capture the right information to understand the problems first hand and give the insight, credibility, and confidence to set the direction in the boardroom. Our tools will support our technical problem solving ability allowing us and our clients to tackle complex problems, implement changes, and ensure improvement is seen on the financial bottom line. We’ve found this approach to be much more effective, and enjoyable, than simply writing reports and we aspire to leave behind an easy to use and effective tool that will ensure our clients sustain these positive changes.

    Who we are

    Our people are the key to delivering amazing results – we hire people who aren't afraid to challenge convention, who innovate and have the conviction to follow through with their ideas. We have an entrepreneurial spirit, and a multitude of talents. Exceptional conceptual engineering expertise and communication skills are fundamental. Isaac people have outgoing personalities. We enjoy travel, and want variety. It’s essential that we can get along with all kinds of people. We enjoy our work and we want to get the most out of life!

    Life at Isaac

    We push ourselves, in all aspects of our life. You will be given a lot of responsibility early on in your career. You will be challenged beyond your comfort zone, but we’ll be there to support you all the way. We tend to embody the “Work hard, play hard” ethos, and part of this is a rule that we don’t work weekends - as of 6 pm on Friday afternoon, your only job is to make the most of the weekend. We have a tendency to push ourselves on our time off too, with recent Isaac achievements including racing the Baja 500, summiting Kilimanjaro, and placing 2nd in the Newfoundland Targa.

    Where we're going

    From our roots in manufacturing, we have applied our unique engineering-based approach across a wide range of industry sectors. We work in aerospace, automotive, defence, food & drink, consumer goods, and most recently healthcare. We are growing by 25% year on year. Our rapid growth means that our people must quickly develop the skills to manage a team, and then help the business grow by identifying and capitalizing on new areas of opportunity. We have been developing our LiveTracking software to help open the door to these new sectors and we're excited to utilize the latest technologies to achieve this, from native apps to web applications to machine sensors.

    We're also at an exciting point in our business as we will be re-branding our North American division from Newton to Isaac in the coming months. There are no major changes to what we do and who we are, we're simply getting a bit of a facelift to better market ourselves to our clients.

    Salary and benefits

    Our entry level positions start at $65,000-$80,000. Salary increases year on year, in addition to profit share after the first year. Everyone gets five weeks of vacation, because we want people to have amazing new experiences. We also have a health benefits package.
