Senior Systems Engineer - NETE

Join a high-impact team supporting the development of advanced Information Systems for the Royal Canadian Navy. As a member of the Systems Engineering Team within the ICS Section, you will contribute to the design, development, integration, and delivery of key naval information systems that support mission-critical capabilities. Working within a collaborative engineering environment, you will help shape innovative technical solutions and advance the digital backbone of Canada's future naval fleet.

At Weir, we combine engineering expertise, innovation, and technology to solve complex challenges for customers around the world. In this role, you'll apply those strengths in support of mission-critical naval systems, contributing to the reliability, security, and performance of environments that are essential to Canada's maritime defence capabilities.

You’ll play a key role in solving real-world challenges. You’ll apply your skills to deliver results that matter—whether that’s through engineering, planning or customer support. You’ll work with purpose, learn every day and help shape a more sustainable future

• →Client and Industry Interactions:  Interact with clients, contracted industry partners, operational/technical stakeholders and the Royal Canadian Navy to understand, derive and decompose, and document system requirements for RCD Information Systems.  Includes organizing, preparing and leading workshops with government and industry stakeholders to define technical, interface and user requirements.  Conduct requirements reconciliation and tracing analysis
• →Systems Engineering:  Develop high level architectures, define interfaces to other systems, plan for the physical integration of the systems in the ship (space, weight, power, cooling, racks, cabling), track and assess the impact of new information from stakeholders on the design/test work in progress, and coordinate with information systems subject matter experts who will perform IT detailed design and integration testing
• →Documentation:  Produce engineering artefacts including Technical Data Packages (TDPs), Interface Control Documents (ICDs), Interface Specification (IFS) documents, diagrams, plans, schedules, use cases and reports regarding the information systems being developed
• →Team Collaboration: Participate and contribute in internal and external project technical review, coordination and progress scrums, workshops, sprints and meetings, and support quality objectives through peer reviews
• →Safety First: Demonstrate 100% commitment to our zero harm behaviors in support of our drive towards developing a world class safety culture

We value what you can do—not just where you’ve been. If you meet the goals of the role, we want to hear from you.
