Original job description

Build bold. Deliver impact. Win together.

At General Dynamics Mission Systems–Canada, we’re not just engineering technology - we’re shaping the future of defence and security. Our teams design and deliver advanced, mission-critical solutions that enhance national security, strengthen communities, and protect the people we serve.

If you’re looking for meaningful work that contributes to a safer, more secure world, you’ll find purpose here. Every day, your skills will directly impact programs that matter.

Job Description

We are currently seeking an Intermediate Systems Engineer to join our Land Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (LC5ISR) team, supporting the delivery of advanced Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition and Reconnaissance (ISTAR) capabilities for the Canadian Army.

In this role, you will contribute to the design, development, integration and validation of complex systems that enable military communications, situational awareness and operational decision-making.

Working within a multidisciplinary Agile engineering team, you will take ownership of assigned systems engineering activities, develop technical solutions and collaborate with hardware and software engineers to deliver integrated tactical capabilities.

If you enjoy solving complex engineering challenges, exploring emerging technologies and contributing to systems that make a real-world impact, we encourage you to apply.

The following are typical responsibilities:

Analyze and decompose complex technical problems into achievable engineering solutions.
Develop and maintain system and subsystem requirements, ensuring alignment with operational needs and technical specifications.
Design and document system architectures, operational concepts, use cases and interfaces.
Develop architecture models using frameworks such as DnDAF and tools such as Enterprise Architect.
Manage requirements, traceability and engineering documentation using tools such as IBM DOORS.
Collaborate with software, hardware and integration teams to support the development of fully integrated ISTAR capabilities.
Plan and execute assigned system integration, verification and validation activities.
Investigate system defects, conduct root cause analysis and recommend corrective actions.
Evaluate new technologies and develop prototypes to assess their potential integration into existing capabilities.
Participate in technical reviews, design discussions and engineering decision-making.
Support Agile planning activities, including coordinating technical deliverables and feature development.
Support demonstrations, external validation activities and field trials.
Identify opportunities to improve engineering processes, system performance and technical solutions.
Provide technical guidance and knowledge-sharing support to junior engineering team members

Qualifications

What You Need to Have to Succeed

Bachelor's degree in Systems Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering or a related engineering discipline, or equivalent education and experience.
2–4 years of relevant professional experience in systems engineering or a related technical discipline, with demonstrated experience in requirements development, system design, integration, or verification and validation.
Professional experience applying systems engineering principles throughout the development lifecycle.
Experience developing and managing system or subsystem requirements.
Experience contributing to system design, architecture, integration, verification or validation activities.
Ability to analyze complex technical problems and develop effective solutions with a reasonable level of independence.
Understanding of hardware and software systems and their integration within complex technical environments.
Strong analytical, organizational and problem-solving skills.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
Ability to manage multiple technical priorities and deliver engineering tasks within established schedules.
Experience collaborating with multidisciplinary engineering teams.

What Makes You Stand Out:

Experience developing system architectures using DnDAF, DoDAF or similar frameworks.
Experience with Enterprise Architect or comparable system modelling tools.
Experience with IBM DOORS or other requirements management tools.
Familiarity with IBM Engineering Workflow Management (EWM/RTC), ClearQuest or Code Collaborator.
Knowledge of networking and communications technologies, including VLANs and routing.
Experience with complex systems integration or system-of-systems engineering.
Experience working with software-intensive systems.
Exposure to Agile development methodologies.
Experience supporting field trials, system demonstrations or external validation events.
Knowledge of defence systems, military communications, tactical networks or ISTAR technologies.
