Role: 

MDA is seeking a Phased Array Antenna Systems Engineer to be responsible for the definition, development, design, integration, verification, and test of phased‑array antenna subsystems for current and next‑generation communications satellites. Our portfolio spans from broadband to Direct to user solutions (D2D) Phased Array antennas with digital Beam forming capability. The role will lead a cross‑disciplinary team to deliver phases array antenna designs that meet mission performance, budget, and schedule requirements, and will support the full product lifecycle from concept through delivery and in‑orbit operations.

Tasks Summary

Architecture Concept & Requirements

Perform trade-offs of phased array antenna design architectures to meet satellite requirements and optimize SWaP.
Generate and maintain antenna subsystem requirements and lower‑level child requirements with mapping to the payload performance.
Perform requirement management and maintain bidirectional traceability throughout the program life cycle.

Design Analysis & Budgeting

Lead development of the antenna design architecture and subsystem‑level performance budgets (gain, bandwidth, beam‑forming, spurious, linearity, timings, power, etc.).
Support payload and platform teams for DC power budget with traffic & utilization models
Converge cross‑disciplinary teams on a design that satisfies mission objectives and coverage.
Perform FMECA, Fault tree, reliability modeling and availability to meet mission objectives.

Integration & Verification (IVV)

Develop verification plans, test matrices, and validation procedures and detailed test requirements.
Support Integration and test activities from planning through production.
Coordinate test campaigns at antenna test facilities (radiated tests, anechoic chambers, etc.)
Review unit and system level test data, evaluate non‑compliances, and support automated data post‑processing/management.
Manage anomaly investigations, root‑cause analysis, and corrective‑action implementation.

Cross‑Functional Coordination, Stakeholder & Program Interaction

Communicate technical status, risk assessments and trade‑study results to senior management and/or customers or partners.
Support payload design authority in design reviews
Liaise with Electrical, Power, Structures, Thermal, Software, Ground‑Segment and Mission‑Operations teams to resolve integration issues early.
Support B&P (Phase 0 & pre-phase A).

Technical Leadership & Mentorship

Mentor, guide junior engineers and interns.
Act as technical liaison with customers, partners and external vendors
Act as Continuous Improvement stakeholder
Contribute to MDA’s knowledge‑base, process enhancements, and standards.

Configuration, Documentation & Standards Management

Ensure all artefacts, analysis, documentation and deliverables are version controlled in PLM environment.
Support design reviews (SRR, PDR, CDR, MRR/TRR…etc.).
Support Technology Road‑Mapping & Innovation

On‑Orbit & Operations Support

Support and analyze on‑orbit test activities and data review.
Support SOOH development and associated operator

Required Qualifications

Sc. in Electrical Engineering or Physics with 10+ years of relevant active antenna design experience.
Previous experience with active antenna system designs, digital beam forming, and antenna parameters.
Experience with Antenna testing, and facilities associated with radiated tests
Strong understanding of aerospace system engineering fundamentals & space environment.
Hands-on individual who can support systems integration processes and capability to test systems and resolve problems.
Experience with Confluence and JIRA.
Demonstrated capability to efficiently work with little supervision.
Ability to distill complex problems to fundamentals to solve with analysis, similarity, or creativity.
Demonstrate excellent written and oral communication skills in English; knowledge of French will be considered an asset (Contact with clients outside Quebec and work on deliverables in English).

Comments/Special Considerations

Successful candidates must obtain and hold security clearance at the reliability status level, and pass security assessment for the Controlled Goods Program (CGP).
