Electrical Systems Integration Engineer

Aircraft Electrical Power Generation, Distribution & Lighting Systems

***MANDATORY - CANDIDATES MUST MEET ALL OF THE FOLLOWING***

  • ****Work authorization: Candidate must already have valid legal papers/status to work in Canada in hand.****
  • Experience : Candidates who cannot speak directly to aircraft systems integration experience and applicable aviation standards do not meet the bar for this role, regardless of general electrical engineering strength.
  • Education: Bachelor's or Master's Degree in Electrical Engineering.
  • Experience: Minimum 5 years in electrical systems integration or a directly related discipline.
  • Domain expertise: Hands-on experience with aircraft electrical systems - power generation, power distribution, and/or lighting systems.
  • Standards knowledge: Working knowledge of RTCA/DO-160, SAE, and MIL-STD standards.
  • Regulatory knowledge: Familiarity with airworthiness requirements under TCCA, FAA, and EASA.
  • Collaboration: Proven experience working alongside multidisciplinary engineering teams and external suppliers.

About the Role

Our client, a major aircraft manufacturer, is hiring an Electrical Engineer to join its Systems Integration team. This role owns the electrical side of the aircraft: power generation, power distribution, and lighting systems, from initial design through certification and into in-service support. You'll work across the full product lifecycle, partnering with suppliers and cross-functional engineering groups to make sure these systems meet performance, safety, and regulatory requirements at every stage.

What You'll Do

  • Own the electrical engineering scope on power generation, power distribution, and lighting systems - from design and integration through to in-service support.
  • Drive certification, testing, and validation work, making sure electrical systems clear regulatory and airworthiness milestones on schedule.
  • Apply RTCA/DO-160, SAE, and MIL-STD standards, and keep designs aligned with TCCA, FAA, and EASA airworthiness requirements.
  • Work daily with multidisciplinary engineering teams and external suppliers to troubleshoot issues and keep integration on track.
  • Run trade studies and assess new technologies for integration into existing or future electrical systems.
  • Push continuous improvement on system performance, reliability, and safety.

Nice to Have

  • Specific hands-on experience with aircraft lighting systems, not just power generation and distribution.
  • A track record of leading trade studies or introducing new technology into an existing aircraft platform.
  • Demonstrated success collaborating across disciplines in a regulated aerospace environment.
