LANGUAGE REQUIREMENTS IN QUEBEC:

Intermediate level knowledge of English is necessary for aeronautical personnel to meet regulatory requirements, understand technical procedures and instructions, and document entries regarding work performed on the aeronautical product for customers outside Quebec.

The innovation engineer will:

• Interact with various stakeholders and disciplines (e.g component repair engineering, propulsion engineering, finance, asset management, etc…) to establish statement of work for the proposed new designs
• Analyze the physics of the engine system to generate boundary conditions for the analytical models
• Perform mathematical calculations, finite element simulations, and failure mode effect analysis to evolve the design
• Assess the new design performance with key success factors by testing, inspection or post-processing of numerical simulation results
• Propose new solutions to improve the engine performance or shop floor efficiency
• Create and maintain related documentation for internal and external approvals
• Actively engage in technical discussions and conduct design reviews according to the design development process
