Independently leads systems engineering tasks and contributes to multidisciplinary project delivery.

The detailed responsibilities include:

• Identify, analyze, and document stakeholder needs by engaging with clients, users, and internal teams to understand objectives, constraints, and system-level expectations.
• Coordinate inputs from subject matter experts and design teams to support the structured development of system documentation and ensure relevant information is captured at the appropriate level.
• Facilitate cross-functional technical meetings and workshops to capture system characteristics, clarify assumptions, and align contributors in support of system engineering deliverables.
• Support system architecture activities by providing structured engineering input, maintaining consistency across related artefacts, and contributing to readiness for future Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) implementation.
• Maintain key system engineering structures, including the System Breakdown Structure (SBS) and Functional Breakdown Structure (FBS), ensuring consistency with project documentation and engineering activities.
• Contribute to systems engineering best practices and support the management of changes affecting requirements and system engineering artefacts.

Education:

• Bachelor’s degree in engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
• Professional engineering designation or eligibility for registration.
• • Additional training or certification in systems engineering or project delivery, such as ASEP, CSEP, or PMP, would be considered an asset.

Years of experience: Minimum 10 years of experience.

Technical Competencies:

• Good understanding of systems engineering principles and lifecycle processes, especially in stakeholder needs analysis, requirements development, and system definition.
• Familiarity with systems engineering standards and frameworks such as ISO/IEC/IEEE 15288.
• Understanding of system architecture concepts, functional analysis, and system decomposition in complex multidisciplinary projects.
• Familiarity with MBSE principles and systems modelling approaches; experience with related tools would be an asset.
• Ability to apply structured and methodical engineering practices to support technical coordination, documentation consistency, and cross-functional alignment.
• Clear verbal and written communication skills, both in French and in English*

* Reasons for requiring bilingualism: You will have the opportunity to work with a varied clientele, including both French- and English-speaking companies. Bilingualism is therefore fundamental to building strong relationships with our customers, understanding their specific needs, communicating effectively in their preferred language and facilitating strategic meetings.

Personal and soft skills:

• Effective communication skills, both written and verbal, with the ability to interact confidently with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Collaborative mindset, with the ability to work across disciplines and foster constructive engagement among contributors.
• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills, with the ability to structure information and support sound engineering decisions.
• Excellent organizational skills, with the ability to manage priorities, maintain focus, and work methodically across multiple workstreams.
