I’m a little disappointed that I didn’t get to experience the coldest weather of my life last night, but it’s pretty good to be “stranded” on a tropical island. Since I work from home, I used to get through cold snaps by not leaving the house for extended periods of time. Now that I have a dog and no yard, that would be… messy. Shockingly, if you were more and better clothing, you can stay pretty warm in even the coldest temperatures. Less shockingly, quite a few of the companies that make awesome cold weather gear are based in Canada. We don’t usually cover opportunities outside the U.S., but we’re making an exception for Arc’teryx. They are based in Vancouver, BC, and they merge their “unrivaled designs with the best quality, highest performing materials and assemble them in the most innovative and most durable manner for the intended use.” In other words, they make high performance for extreme situations–whether it’s climbing a mountain or walking your dog on the coldest day of your life.

Baby It’s Cold Outside

Arc’teryx doesn’t say much about themselves on their website. I think they let their gear speak for itself. Arc’teryx’s pro team includes skiers, snowboarders, alpine climbers, ice & mixed cimbers, runners, rock climbers, and photographers. Those are the kind of people that they make gear for, but us average joes can use it too. If you’re interested in working at Arc’teryx, check out their Careers page. I’d assume that you need to be legally entitled to work in Canada to land any of these jobs, but there are a few positions worth checking out for a new or recent grad including Purchasing Assistant, Digital Data Analyst, Dealer Service Assistant, Web Developer, Technical Representative, Traffic Assistant, and Pattern Maker. Stay warm.
