The Environment:

A truly unique opportunity that is unmatched anywhere else - whether you are a student or newly graduated looking to take the right first step, or an experienced engineer of several years searching for that next role that truly excites you.

You will be working in a special projects engineering team at a test pilot school using the latest technology and teaching techniques to train the highest level of pilots and flight test professionals from around the world.

Our teaching aids are the aircraft themselves. We use a wide-ranging fleet to demonstrate the unique characteristics of each type of aircraft. We have in our hangar military jet trainers, single and twin-piston aircraft, large amphibious aircraft, a variety of helicopters and simulators.

The ITPS engineering team continually enhances this fleet to keep our curriculum at the forefront of the latest technology and flight-test methods.

Our modification projects range from small avionics upgrades, to full-aircraft data sensor installation, to heavy modifications that affect the operational and flying characteristics of the aircraft.

Our work is practical, multi-disciplinary, aircraft-level and highly targeted for a special mission.

The environment is hands-on, collaborative and you will have the opportunity to touch upon all parts of the aircraft and be directly implicated in regulations and operations. This unique access cannot be found in the large aerospace companies.

The Person:

We are looking for an energetic, motivated and dynamic individual to join our team with the following aptitudes and interests.

If you are a maintenance engineer and want to make the jump to design – this could be the right opportunity.

Your Role:

• Be a cross-disciplinary individual in the engineering team who performs both design and maintenance on the various aircraft modification projects and in-house avionic product development projects.
• Investigate the aircraft and its maintenance manuals to suggest design solutions in response to system integration and upgrade requests.
• Create electrical load analyses, wiring diagrams using AutoCAD and installation instructions.
• Installation, testing and logbook entries of integrated avionics and systems in the maintenance environment
• Work in a multi-disciplinary engineering team of varying fields and contribute to design reviews and certification documentation.

Your Profile:

• A self-starter who demonstrates high initiative and teamwork.
• Valid AME-E license and 3 years minimum maintenance experience is an asset.
• Interest and aptitude in avionics, electrical design and R&D prototyping. Previous industry experience in design is an asset.
