General description of the job

We are seeking a Software Engineering Professional experienced in software and firmware development for aviation-grade systems such as routers, aircraft connectivity platforms, and aircraft health management systems (AHMS).

The successful candidate will play a dual role — contributing to core software and firmware development while also being hands‑on in troubleshooting and resolving in‑service software and firmware issues reported by business aviation customers and field service teams.

This position requires a strong background in embedded systems, real‑time software, and avionics data protocols, along with a practical, investigative mindset suited for analyzing complex issues in deployed environments.

Key Responsibilities

Software & Firmware Development

  • Design, develop, and validate embedded software and firmware for aircraft communication routers, health monitoring modules, and smart sensing systems.
  • Implement real‑time features aligned with aviation safety, reliability, and performance standards.
  • Collaborate with systems, hardware, and test engineering teams to ensure software integration with airborne components.
  • Participate in architecture reviews, code reviews, and continuous improvement initiatives.
  • Prepare and maintain design documentation in compliance with DO-178C and ARP4754A processes where applicable.
  • Customer & In‑Service Support

  • Lead technical investigations of customer‑reported software or firmware anomalies from in‑service aircraft.
  • Reproduce issues in lab environments, perform root cause analysis, and identify corrective and preventive actions.
  • Collaborate closely with Field Service Representatives, Product Support Engineers, and Quality Assurance teams.
  • Provide technical inputs during service bulletins, software updates, and configuration management reviews.
  • Support real‑time troubleshooting through log analysis, simulation, and embedded debugging tools.
  • Continuous Improvement & Reliability

  • Contribute to the development of diagnostic and monitoring tools for AHMS and smart routers.
  • Identify recurring failure modes and drive firmware or process improvements to enhance system reliability.
  • Participate in post‑incident reviews and support validation of corrective software releases.
  • Support testing and validation campaigns for software reliability and interoperability across aircraft systems.
  • How to thrive in this role?

  • You have a bachelor’s or master’s degree in Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field with 5+ years of experience in aviation software or embedded systems development.
  • You are proficient in embedded real‑time systems (RTOS or bare metal).
  • You have experience with DO-178C software lifecycle or equivalent aviation software standards.
  • You have knowledge of aircraft data buses and communication protocols such as ARINC 429, ARINC 664, CAN, Ethernet, RS‑422, and SNMP.
  • You have experience debugging with tools such as JTAG, GDB, and Wireshark, and analyzing aircraft operational data.
  • You are familiar with Linux‑based embedded systems, Python scripting, and Git‑based configuration management.
  • You have had exposure to aircraft connectivity systems (e.g., SATCOM, Wi‑Fi routers, data concentrators) or aircraft health monitoring applications is highly desirable.
  • You have strong analytical and diagnostic skills for resolving complex system interactions.
  • You have demonstrated effective communication and teamwork across engineering and customer support organizations.
  • You have a hands‑on approach with a passion for improving in‑service reliability and customer experience.
  • You have the ability to manage multiple priorities and perform under time‑sensitive conditions.
  • You have prior involvement in airborne connectivity, onboard routers, or health monitoring systems.
  • You have experience working with aircraft OEMs in post‑delivery software issue resolution or field support.
  • Now that you can see yourself in this role, apply and join the Bombardier Team!

    Please note : You don’t need all the skills, knowledge, and experience listed to apply for this position. We’re not looking for the perfect candidate, we’re looking for great talent and passionate individuals.
