Job description :

Are you passionate about innovation in critical systems? Want to contribute to an electrical revolution in the aerospace sector? Join a dynamic team designing a next-generation, flight-certifiable electrical storage system (ESS).

Position based on Montreal's South Shore, with occasional travel to Switzerland.

Your mission:

As a systems engineer, you will play a key role in the definition, development and integration of an ESS for demanding aeronautical applications. Your responsibilities include:

Architecture & system engineering:

• Define the electrical system architecture and its technical requirements.
• Analyze the electrical network and load profiles (ELA).
• Ensure compliance with certification standards (DO-160, DO-254, ARP4754A, etc.).

Battery specialization:

• Specify performance, safety, durability and interface requirements for batteries.
• Participate in technological choices (cells, BMS, cooling, etc.).
• Monitor battery tests (aging, thermal runaway, abuse tests) and analyze results.

Integration & validation:

• Participate in aircraft integration phases.
• Contribute to ground and flight tests.
• Draft technical documents (specifications, V&V reports, safety analyses, etc.).

Why join us?

• Ambitious, concrete project at the heart of the aeronautical energy transition.
• International and multidisciplinary environment.
• Direct impact on innovative, certifiable solutions.

Skills and qualifications :

• +5 years' experience in systems engineering in critical environments (aeronautics, rail, automotive...).
• Solid expertise in energy storage systems or power electronics.
• Good knowledge of aeronautical certification standards.
• Mastery of tools and methods: V&V, FMEA, SSA, HIL/SIL, EMI/EMC.
• Ideally, experience with lithium-ion batteries and management systems (BMS).
• Fluent English (French appreciated).
• Autonomy, rigor, team spirit and taste for innovation.
