About This Role As a software developer for sensor or communication systems, you will be responsible for the design, development and integration of the software components used to simulate various equipment or stimulate real hardware components. Sensors offers the capability to perform an active or passive analysis of the tactical virtual environment to provide the aircraft’s crew the information required to achieve their mission’s objective. The communication system allows the flight crew to speak among themselves as well as interact with others in a virtual world. The sensor and communication simulation teams are responsible to design, implement and maintain software solutions for the following type of systems: + Electronic Warfare: (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic\_warfare) With it’s multiple passive sensors, this system will detect radar signals, missiles and lasers that might be hostile towards the aircraft. In case of an imminent threat, the system is capable to deploy countermeasures to defeat threats coming from radars and missiles. + Electro-Optics: (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forward\_looking\_infrared) Equipped with a several cameras mounted on a gyro stabilized platform, this system offer the crew the capability to visualize the environment surrounding the aircraft in different visual wavelength (color, infrared and low light). Optionally, these systems can be equipped with different types of lasers to allow range computation, target designation or scene illumination. + Radar: (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar) This active sensor constructs imagery of the environment based on the reflection that radio waves have from objects such as: landmass, weather, buildings, vehicles, boats, etc. Some systems also offer a wide variety of advanced functionalities such as high-resolution imagery, automatic acquisition of contacts and target signature identification. + Sonar: (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonar) Systems deployed from aircrafts, ships and submarines in anti-submarine and mine warfare contexts. These systems allow detection of threats via presentation of audio and visual information on the surrounding underwater sound environment. Ocean sound propagation is simulated using physics-based models. + Communication: This system contains various types of radios that communicate within a virtual world. This virtual world contains several communication partners, including but not limited to ground towers and entities that emit emergency signals. The system also allows the communication between intercom channels (crew to crew), direction finding via radio signals and generation of cockpit audio warnings. For all these types of equipment, the development team is responsible to interface with the virtual environment and to model the different aspects of the equipment such as the power up sequence, the built-in-test, the malfunctions, the electrical connections, the system modes and all interfaces to other aircraft systems. The role we are offering you: + Design software solutions that meet customer’s expectations. + Develop software solutions using C++ to simulate various sensors or communication systems. + Integrate new software components with software component produced by other teams to build a complete simulator. + Implement interface between software components and simulator specific hardware. + Elaborate unit and system tests. + Participate in peer code reviews. Our ideal candidate has: + Bachelor degree in software, computer, electrical or physics engineering. + Dynamic team player with a sense of initiative, results-oriented with good team spirit. + Knowledge of C and C++ programming languages is essential. + Experience with the different level of software components: multiple operating systems (Windows, Linux), microprocessors (Intel), drivers and microcode, the inter-processes communication and network protocols (TCP/IP, Windows Sockets, UDP, etc.). + Knowledge of UML (Unified Modeling Language) is essential. + Knowledge of real-time programming is essential. + Knowledge of automatic unit tests and system tests, an asset. + Knowledge of sensor domain, an asset. + Knowledge of communication systems, an asset. + Knowledge of professional sound cards and analog / digital audio, an asset. + Good planning and organizational skills. + Good oral and written communication skills. + Bilingualism (French and English) is required. + Availability for occasional business trips to worldwide destinations. + Capability to obtain a NATO Secret security clearance within a period of 12 months. CAE offers: + Benefits: fully flexible for you to choose what is important + Retirement: Defined Benefits Retirement Plan & Group Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) + Financial Perks: Employee Stock Purchase Plan & numerous corporate discounts + Personal and Family Programs: Physical Wellness Plan & Supplementary Maternity Plan + Work-Life Balance: Flextime & California Fridays all year + Fun at work: social and community events all-year round!
