Role:

MDA is recruiting a junior systems engineer to contribute - under the supervision of senior engineers to the definition, design, implementation and validation of the flight‑software (FSW) and FDIR functions for our current and next‑generation remote‑sensing and communications satellites.

Collaborate with the cybersecurity team to incorporate resilience from the conceptual stage.
Update traceability links in the requirements‑management system and flag any inconsistencies to the configuration manager.

Software Architecture, Design & Development

Define the flight‑software (FSW) architecture – RTOS, start‑up procedures, PUS services, satellite health‑monitoring, fault management, and payload interfaces.
Define FDIR algorithms, isolation logic, recovery actions, safe‑mode sequences, and redundancy management.
Implement or lead the integration of the FDIR logic into the flight software.
Produce and maintain Interface Control Documents (ICDs) for payload subsystems, platform subsystems, and ground‑segment interfaces.

Participate in continuous‑improvement activities and apply lessons‑learned to future projects.
Contribute to MDA’s knowledge base, process improvements and the development of standards.

Configuration, Documentation & Standards Management

Ensure that all artefacts, analyses, software, deliverables and documents are version‑controlled in the PLM environment.
Support design reviews (SRR, PDR, CDR, MRR/TRR, etc.).
Assist the technology‑road‑mapping and innovation effort by providing input on emerging solutions.

On‑Orbit & Operations Support

Support procedure developments for Satellite Modes.
Support and analyse on‑orbit telemetry, update filter parameters, and generate SW updates as needed.
Support SOOH development and associated operator training.
