Original job description

Frequentis Group with headquarters in Vienna is an international supplier of communication and information systems for control centres with safety-critical tasks. Mission-critical control centres around the world keep our planes safe in the sky, our urban and regional trains safe on the railroads, and our ships and boats safe on the seas. They coordinate rescue on land, sea and air when something goes wrong and they keep our citizens safe by dispatching law enforcement and other first responders when we need to call 9-1-1. Today, any controller working in a mission-critical control centre relies on four sophisticated technologies to do their jobs: voice communications, situational awareness tools, decision assist tools, and a resilient voice and data network underneath it all. Those four basic tools: that’s what we do. Worldwide, more than 500 customers in 150 countries with more than 40,000 workstations already trust our know-how and proven experience.

Frequentis Canada is seeking a Director of Engineering to lead the software engineering function and shape its long-term direction.
