About the role Canada Rocket Company is building a sovereign launch capability for Canada. As our first Electrical Design Engineer, you will own the design of high-reliability, flight-grade electrical hardware starting with our light-lift R1 rocket and scaling that work through successive vehicles as CRC grows. This is a senior, hands-on foundational role. You will set the standards, build the processes, and deliver hardware that flies. As the team expands, you will be expected to help hire and shape the electrical design team around you. This is not a role for someone who wants a defined lane. It is a founding technical position at a company building something Canada has never built before. If you want to own critical hardware from first principles to first flight and help build the team that eventually scales around you, this is the role for you. What you'll do Define electrical architectures for complex, safety-critical systems including power distribution, sensor signal conditioning, actuator drive circuitry, and data interfaces Execute full lifecycle development of electronic components and subsystems, including requirement gathering, schematic capture and layout, prototyping, debugging, mechanical integration, environmental testing, data analysis, and production implementation. Build the electrical design processes, tools, and documentation standards that will scale with the team Provide production support for launch vehicle avionics, including root-cause failure investigations and quality enhancements. Develop, test, and characterize electronic sub-circuits, including digital, power, and analogue sensing circuits. Qualifications Required Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering or a related engineering discipline. Over 5 years of experience designing, building, or testing circuit boards or other electronics. Proven experience in designing hardware from concept through to production, with an emphasis on test and validation Understanding of electronic circuits, design principles, and SMT manufacturing techniques. Familiarity with interfaces and sensors, including power supplies, oscilloscopes, serial devices, and instrumentation. Preferred Passion for spaceflight and curiosity for electronics in high-reliability applications. Proficiency in Altium. Familiarity with basics of mechanical design, thermal design, vibration dynamics, and spacecraft design. Experience with circuit board layout, especially for switching power converters or high-speed digital applications. Experience designing switching power converters, power magnetics, analog control loops, solid state load switches, motor inverters, EMI/EMC compliance, or sensor signal conditioning circuits. Experience in environmental testing, such as vibration, shock, thermal, and TVAC as well as familiarity with relevant standards. Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to create formal test plans and materials for distribution to external parties. Demonstrated ability to thrive in fast-paced and autonomous project environments. Programming experience in Python and/or C/C++.
