Senior Flight Control Systems Engineer

QDSS is seeking an experienced Aircraft-Level Flight Control System Integrator to support the integration of fly-by-wire (FBW) flight control systems within aircraft programs. The successful candidate will work across flight controls, aircraft systems, avionics, electrical systems, software, safety, and verification teams to ensure the Flight Control System (FCS) functions correctly within the overall aircraft architecture. This role focuses on aircraft-level functionality, system interfaces, integration dependencies, and verification of end-to-end behavior across interacting aircraft systems. The Aircraft-Level Integrator will help establish and maintain a coordinated integration approach, identify and resolve cross-system issues, and provide technical visibility into integration readiness, risks, and verification progress. The individual must be comfortable working across organizational and engineering boundaries in a complex aircraft development environment. This is a remote role and requires up to 25% travel. Responsibilities • Perform the integration of the FBW & Secondary Flight Controls system on the aircraft. • Support the development of concepts, design approach and philosophy with the Flight Control system supplier. • Perform/Review analysis to evaluate concepts feasibility. • Develop, validate and verify technical requirements of the Flight Control System. • Review/Prepare technical requirements • Review/Prepare test procedures • Execute test rig and/or aircraft testing • Review/Prepare test reports in support of certification activities • Resolve problems arising from in-service aircraft. • Troubleshooting, root cause determination, corrective action definition and execution • Ensure compliance to the ARP4754 development process. • Support trade off studies and life cycle cost analysis for future programs. • Ensure the design process and the resulting equipment implementation is in line with Bombardier's requirements and standards. Required Qualifications • Bachelor's degree in mechanical or aerospace engineering and have a minimum of 7 years' experience in aerospace related field. • Experience in the definition and certification of at least one FBW and/or Secondary Flight Control system. • Understanding of all facets of system definition, integration, and certification and have a knowledge of aircraft systems and interfaces (e.g., electrical, hydraulic, avionics, auto-flight). • Working knowledge of Part 25 certification process. • Working knowledge of MATLAB/Simulink/Stateflow simulation environment. • Familiarity with aircraft certification and development standards, including ARP4754A/ARP4754B, ARP4761/ARP4761A, DO-178C, and DO-254 • Experience with redundant FBW architectures, flight control computers, control laws, sensors, actuators, and fault-management concepts. Preferred Qualifications • Experience in modeling and dynamic simulation of flight controls electrical and hydraulic actuators • Familiarity with simulation environments such as ADAMS, or design tools such as CATIA • Working knowledge of French • Experience with aircraft data buses and networks, air data systems, inertial reference systems, avionics interfaces, or integrated modular avionics. • Experience with anomaly investigation, root-cause analysis, technical discrepancy management, and verification closure. Full compensation package is based on candidate experience and certifications Pay Ranges $130,000-$180,000 USD
