Electrical Engineer (Avionics & Systems Integration)

Position: Electrical and Avionics Systems Engineer
Location: London, Ontario (Onsite)
Start Date: Immediate

ITPS is seeking a full-time Electrical Engineer to join our engineering team in support of high-performance aviation programs. The successful candidate will work across the full engineering V-model and contribute to the design, integration, and testing of data acquisition systems, cockpit avionics, and mission-critical electrical subsystems.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead design and development of aircraft electrical systems from concept to production
• Prepare and maintain engineering documentation: I/O definitions, schematics, interface control documents (ICDs), wiring diagrams
• Design and review custom PCB layouts and avionics harnessing
• Oversee component selection, BOM management, and procurement coordination
• Plan and conduct bench-level and on-aircraft testing, including functional verification, continuity checks, and system validation
• Collaborate with avionics, flight test, and systems teams for seamless integration into flight platforms
• Provide technical support during installation, troubleshooting, and acceptance testing phases

Preferred Experience

• Solid understanding of aircraft electrical systems, power distribution, and signal integrity
• Hands-on experience with avionics interfaces and protocols: ARINC 429, RS-232/422/485, CAN bus; familiarity with Mil-STD-1553 is an asset
• Experience with LRU integration, signal routing, grounding/shielding practices, and EMI/EMC considerations
• Ability to work with aircraft sensors (AHRS, IMUs, magnetometers, electro-optical payloads) and mission/display computers
• Familiarity with technical drawing tools (e.g., MS Visio, Enovia) and engineering design platforms
• Understanding of regulatory and airworthiness documentation standards in aerospace systems
• Exposure to RF components, LTE/satcom, or signal conditioning hardware is a plus

Tools & Software

• Proficiency with tools such as: MS Office, Navision, Enovia, ARINC scheduling software
• Experience with Matlab or IADS for system analysis and data visualization
• Embedded software/firmware knowledge is beneficial but not essential for this role
