Join our 90,000 employee's strong global technology organisation, a key player in the international defence and security market. Leonardo Canada Inc. (LCI) continues to grow in Canada; we're seeking motivated, competent and driven professionals with experience in our very specialised business. LCI offers competitive total rewards and a work environment that supports, encourages and challenges all our employees to grow personally.
Leonardo Canada Inc. is seeking a Chief Engineer to join our Design Integrity Team. Reporting to the Head of Capability, who serves as LCI's Independent Technical Authority (ITA), this is a senior technical leadership role responsible for defining and assuring the overall technical integrity, quality, and coherence of complex systems or products throughout their lifecycle.
As a Chief Engineer, you will serve as a technical custodian accountable for the integrity of LCI's engineering output. You will be responsible for formal sign off on technical baselines, major design changes, and product releases, ensuring all evidence fully justifies deployment.
This is a rare opportunity to hold technical authority over complex systems, balancing security, performance, and compliance to deliver robust solutions that meet demanding regulatory requirements.
The Chief Engineer responsibilities include:
Design Governance

- Scrutinise and ensure clear traceability evidence exists linking requirements, design decisions, and test evidence with the implemented solutions to validate the system's fitness for purpose prior to release.
- Serve as a signatory for all formal engineering products releases, ensuring the deliverables are compliant with all specified requirements and that the complete release package includes all required supporting artifacts (e.g., Release Notes, VDDs, User Manuals, and Verification Evidence).
Strategy and Standards
- Define and enforce technical standards, design patterns, and best practices within the engineering teams.
- Research and recommend the adoption of new technologies and methodologies where appropriate.
Required Qualifications and Experience
- Education: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Engineering, or a related field.

o Strong background in Defense or Aerospace engineering particularly in electronics or EW domains.
- Residency Requirement: As required for statutory representation, the candidate must either be a Canadian Citizen, Permanent Canadian Resident or hold/be able to achieve a suitable Canadian Work Permit.

- Communication: Exceptional verbal and written communication, presentation, and negotiation skills.
- Pragmatism: Ability to balance technical excellence with business value, budget, and time constraints.
- Mentorship: Desire and ability to mentor and elevate the technical capabilities of development teams.
