(Fastwater Staffing) Satellite Command & Data‑Handling (C&DH) System Engineer | Canada [Full Relocation Package]

Résumé du poste

The Satellite C&DH System Engineer will lead the architecture, design, and development of on-board processors and data-handling subsystems. They will also coordinate cross-functional teams, manage system requirements, and support integration, verification, and on-orbit operations.

Détails du poste

Tasks summary: Architecture Concept & Requirements • Translate mission‑level requirements into C&DH functional and non‑functional specifications. • Produce System Requirements, Interface Control (ICDs), and Description documents. • Perform requirement management and maintain bidirectional traceability throughout the project lifecycle. • Collaborate with cyber-security to embed resilience and security by design, ECU. Design & Development • Lead detailed design of on‑board processors, data‑buses (SpaceWire, MIL‑1553, CAN, Ethernet), memory subsystems, and I/O interfaces. • Support software architecture: command sequencing, telemetry packetization, health‑monitoring, services, fault‑detection‑isolation‑recovery (FDIR). • Support Satellite Reference Database development and validation Cross‑Functional Coordination, Stakeholder & Program Interaction • Communicate technical status, risk assessments and trade‑study results to senior management and/or customers or partners. • Work with FSW teams to define RTOS, APIs, task scheduling, real‑time operating system configuration, services usage. • Define uplink command formatting, downlink telemetry packet structures, and ground‑segment data‑handling interfaces (mission‑control servers, data‑archiving pipelines). • Coordinate with the TT&C/PDT engineering and Ground Segment ICDs to ensure end‑to‑end data integrity. • Support B&P (Phase 0 & pre-phase A). Integration & Verification (IVV) • Develop verification plans, test matrices, and validation procedures for unit, subsystem, and spacecraft level C&DH tests. • Execute functional tests, bus‑protocol compliance, SIL and HIL campaigns. • Manage anomaly investigations, root‑cause analysis, and corrective‑action implementation. Technical Leadership & Mentorship • Mentor, guide junior engineers and interns. • Act as technical liaison with customers, partners and external vendors • Act as Continuous Improvement stakeholder Configuration, Documentation & Standards Management • Author and maintain C&DH standards (bus protocols, data‑format conventions, redundancy policies). • Ensure all artefacts, analysis and documentations are version controlled in PLM environment. • Support design reviews (SRR, PDR, CDR, MRR/TRR…etc.). • Support Technology Road‑Mapping & Innovation On‑Orbit & Operations Support • Support launch‑pre‑launch and early‑orbit checkout, validate satellite functions, HK and nominal operation • Support and analyse on‑orbit telemetry, update filter parameters as needed. • Support SOOH development and associated operator trainings Required Qualifications: • B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering, Aerospace or related field with 8+ years of C&DH engineering experience on LEO/MEO/GEO platforms. • Deep knowledge of spacecraft data-bus standards: SpaceWire, MIL-1553, CAN-A, Ethernet, CCSDS packet telemetry/command and PUS services. • Knowledge in processor, FPGA, firmware and embedded • Strong understanding of aerospace system engineering fundamentals, space environment and orbit mechanics. • Hands-on individual who can support systems integration processes and capability to test systems and resolve problems. • Experience with Confluence and JIRA. • Demonstrated capability to efficiently work with little supervision. • Ability to distill complex problems to fundamentals to solve with analysis, similarity, or creativity. • Demonstrate excellent written and oral communication skills in English; knowledge of French will be considered an asset (Contact with clients outside Quebec and work on deliverables in English).
