Develop and integrate test‑data automation solutions for high‑volume production of flight hardware.

Design, code, test, debug, and document high‑quality software.

Participate in integration, testing, and deployment of test‑data processing.

Assist in troubleshooting problems in a software production environment.

Prepare required documentation.

Qualifications

Minimum of 5 semesters completed of an engineering degree and interest in electronics testing and integration.

Ability to work with an existing code base or framework.

Knowledge of electronics and associated test equipment; experience in radiofrequency (RF) measurement is an asset.

Experience with Excel.

Demonstrated academic performance (good general average).

Experience in an electronics lab with test equipment is an asset.

Good verbal and written communication skills in English and French (contact with customers outside Quebec).

The ideal candidate is multidisciplinary, proactive, enthusiastic, and result‑oriented.
