About Our Client

Aerospace industry

Job Description

Design & Development

  • Design and simulate mixed-signal circuits (analog/digital, HV/LV, current & temperature sensing).
  • Integrate input protection, EMI/ESD filtering, and power management blocks (e.g., DC/DC converters).
  • Incorporate digital communication protocols (CAN, RS485, RS232) and microcontroller-based systems.
  • Develop schematics and PCB layouts using Altium Designer or similar ECAD tools.
  • Specialization in analog circuit design is a strong advantage.



Documentation & Compliance

  • Prepare detailed design descriptions, FMEA, MTBF calculations, and analysis reports.
  • Ensure full traceability and version control of engineering data in line with DO-254.



Testing & System Integration

  • Define and execute Qualification Test Plans (QTP) and Verification Test Procedures (VTP).
  • Support PCB debugging, system-level integration, and de-risking activities.
  • Contribute to the development of test benches and Acceptance Test Procedures (ATP).
  • Conduct environmental and functional testing according to RTCA/DO-160.



Process & Quality

  • Comply with internal and regulatory processes related to configuration management, safety, and documentation.
  • Promote quality through peer reviews, design checklists, and robust change control procedures.

The Successful Applicant

Education & Experience

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electronics Engineering.
  • Technical apprenticeship (CFC or equivalent) in electronics is a strong asset.
  • 3-5 years of experience in safety-critical hardware development (aerospace, automotive, medical, or industrial sectors).



Technical CompetenciesProficiency in:

  • Mixed analog/digital circuit design (SPICE-based simulation tools such as Simetrix).
  • Power electronics, protection circuits, and filtering.
  • Communication protocols (CAN, RS485, RS232).
  • Schematic capture and PCB layout using Altium Designer or similar.



Familiarity with:

  • EMI/EMC design principles and PCB layout best practices.
  • IPC standards and manufacturability considerations.
  • Thermal and mechanical integration (asset).
  • Environmental and qualification testing (DO-160).
  • Certification standards: DO-254, CS-23, and EASA/FAA frameworks.
  • Tools: Altium, MATLAB, Simetrix, version control and configuration tools.



Soft Skills

  • Structured, detail-oriented, and quality-focused.
  • Strong documentation and compliance discipline.
  • Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Collaborative mindset with the ability to work independently.
  • Fluent in English; French is a strong asset.

What's on Offer

Impactful Work: Contribute to cutting-edge Energy Storage System (ESS) development in a safety-critical, aerospace-compliant environment.

Innovative Projects: Be part of a forward-thinking team shaping the future of sustainable energy and aviation technology.
