Job description

Aviation Cybersecurity Engineering Professional
Montreal, QC | Contract (24 to 36 months) | Hybrid, 2 to 3 days onsite | Starting October 2026

About the role

We’re looking for an Aviation Cybersecurity Engineering Professional to join a Montreal-based aerospace team on a long-term contract. This is a role with two sides to it. You’ll be helping write the cybersecurity practices and processes the organization works to, and you’ll be applying those practices directly on live projects across a range of business aircraft platforms. There’s a research and technology element as well, so you get to shape how the work is done rather than just follow a process someone else wrote.

Contract-to-hire candidates are welcome and encouraged to apply.

What you’ll be doing

• Developing and documenting cybersecurity practices, processes and standards for aircraft systems
• Applying those practices across platforms and on in-flight design changes
• Supporting aircraft system integration and civil aircraft certification activities from a security standpoint
• Contributing to research and technology work that improves how the team approaches airworthiness security
• Working with engineering teams across disciplines to embed security into system design

What you bring

• A university engineering degree in Software, Information Technology, Computer Science, Electronics, Aerospace Engineering or equivalent
• A minimum of 6 years in a technical engineering field, including at least 2 years in cybersecurity of networks and systems and at least 2 years in aerospace
• General knowledge of computer network architectures, electronics, operating systems and software programming
• Familiarity with general aircraft system integration and civil aircraft certification (working knowledge is highly desired)
• Knowledge of IT and/or Aviation Information Security Management System principles
• Strong written and spoken English. Functional French is an asset

Highly desired

Working knowledge of aviation cybersecurity standards and guidance:

• ED-201A / DO-391, Aeronautical Information System Security Framework Guidance
• ED-202B / DO-326B, Airworthiness Security Process Specification
• ED-203A / DO-356A, Airworthiness Security Methods and Considerations
• ED-204A / DO-355A, Information Security Guidance for Continuing Airworthiness
• ED-206 / DO-392, Guidance on Information Security Event Management
• CS 25.1319, Equipment, systems and network information protection

Who does well here

You work autonomously and don’t need much supervision to get moving. You’re organized, self-motivated and comfortable under pressure. You take initiative, adapt when the work shifts, and you’re able to influence people who don’t report to you. You care about doing it properly.

The details

• Location: Montreal, hybrid, 2 to 3 days per week onsite (subject to change)
• Duration: 24 to 36 months, with contract-to-hire potential
• Start: October 2026
• Travel: minimal
