Building the space between proven and possible, MDA Space (TSX:MDA) is a trusted mission partner to the global space industry. A robotics, satellite systems, and geointelligence pioneer with a 55-year+ story of world firsts and more than 450 missions, MDA Space is a global leader in communications satellites, Earth and space observation, and space exploration and infrastructure. The MDA Space team of more than 3,000 space experts in Canada, the US, and the UK has the knowledge and know-how to turn an audacious customer vision into an achievable mission – bringing to bear a one-of-a-kind mix of experience, engineering excellence, and wide-eyed wonder that’s been in our DNA since day one.

Please include a copy of your transcript with your application

Project Description:

A student in the Electrical Engineering team can expect to be involved in a variety of space-based sensor or camera systems. This may include Mars Rovers, the Lunar Gateway, the International Space Station, and interplanetary spacecraft. One specific such project may be the Martian Moons Exploration (MMX) mission, whose profile relates to the Vertical Descent Phase (VDP) in which MDA’s Laser Range Finder (LRF) will be operated. It is understood that the spacecraft will undergo a number of changes in velocity and perform one or more maneuvers as Phobos is approached for a given landing operation. The LRF will be used, during this phase, to provide accurate and precise altimetry. The LRF must survive launch, transit to Mars, and operation at Phobos, which demands confidence in the unit’s performance and reliability under the harsh environments of interplanetary space.

Responsibilities:

Main responsibilities would include:

  1. Contribute to the research, development, and manufacture of space flight quality circuit card assemblies
  2. Execution of circuit simulations, schematic capture drawing, component sourcing, cable drawing creation, derating analysis, worst-case analysis, radiation analysis, FMECA assessment, lab testing of circuits, test procedure planning, EMC compliance planning, presentation of design expectations/results, and participation in design reviews
  3. Assist in new product engineering and design activities as well as interaction with mechanical and software engineer groups
  4. Circuit debug and acceptance test procedure execution in the lab
  5. Assist with FPGA test bench preparation and FPGA verification activities
  6. Assisting full-time engineering group members with their project assignments
  7. Completion of small projects and assignments of various degrees of complexity, ranging from electronic design to test environment programming and documentation
Qualifications:

Candidates must have the following knowledge, experience, and skills:

  • Engineering Student, in Electrical Discipline
  • Undergraduate level, 2nd or 3rd Year completed
  • Knowledge of electronic circuits and principles
  • Proficient in the use of MS Office (Excel and Word) and have an aptitude for quickly learning other company-specific software
  • Self-starter with a strong work ethic
  • Must be willing to work in a hands-on environment
  • Must have strong time management skills
  • Good communication, organization, and documentation skills

Desirable Skills: Working knowledge of Python

Desirable knowledge/experience includes familiarity with Visio, Orcad, Allegro, LTspice, or similar simulation tools

Comments/Special Considerations:

Successful candidates must obtain and hold security clearance at the reliability status level and pass security assessment for the Controlled Goods Program (CGP) and ITAR. MDA Ltd. is proud to provide accommodation(s) during the recruitment process. Should you require any accommodations, please indicate this on your application/cover letter, and we will work with you to meet your accessibility needs.
