At General Dynamics Land Systems we put our Customers at the centre of everything we do. Our commitment to protect and enable the people who serve drives us to develop products and systems that give them a clear advantage for mission success. We are looking for passionate individuals to help us deliver innovative, unique solutions to our Customers.
The Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3) Associate Specialist/Engineer opening is a current vacant position at General Dynamics Land Systems – Canada (GDLS-C). You will be mentored by experts in the industry to identify and assess if electrical and electronic systems function correctly in their intended environments without interfering with other equipment.
Job Description
The Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3) role is responsible for ensuring that GDLS-C products meet applicable E3 requirements. As an entry-level position, you will be guided and mentored by technical subject matter experts. Your responsibilities as an E3 team member will include reviewing E3 requirements, collaborating with design engineers during development to ensure compliance with electromagnetic compatibility standards, conducting simulations, evaluating supplier and third-party compliance documentation, and developing and presenting E3 design assessments. Additionally, you will investigate issues to identify and implement risk mitigations.
A key aspect of the E3 role involves E3 testing. This includes witnessing third-party testing, supporting customer testing and planning, as well as executing and reporting on GDLS-C-led vehicle-level E3 testing.
Key Job Elements:
Supports the review and development of the E3 requirements at component, sub-system and system (e.g. vehicle) level
Supports the design teams with E3 risk mitigation techniques, including Grounding and Bonding (G&B), shielding and harness separation
Reviews applicable standards (MIL, IEEE, SAE etc) for relevance and advises designers, suppliers and customers on limitations or need for tailored approaches to perform analysis or testing according to acceptable/negotiated deviations from standards
Prepares and presents E3 assessments at internal and customer design reviews
Reviews, provides feedback and approves suppliers/vendors E3 compliance artifacts
Expected to learn, on the job, to perform computer simulations to determine antenna placement, antenna radiation patterns and antenna cosite interference, Radiation Hazard (RADHAZ) to personnel (HERP), ordnances (HERO) and fuel (HERF), using simulation tools such as FEKO or CST Simulia
Develops component, sub-system and system (e.g. vehicle) test plans, executes internal and customer tests and develops and submits test reports
Sets up and employs test equipment such as vector network analyzer, spectrum analyzer, VSWR meters, oscilloscopes, power meters, power supplies, signal generators, micro-ohmmeters, RF amplifiers, LISNs, test antennas/transducers and high frequency E/H field probes
Supports the investigation, identification of the root cause(es) and implementation of solutions to address E3 issues on vehicles, sub-systems and components
Supports the assessment of E3 technical gaps and supports the technology, capability, and product roadmap activities to ensure the E3 team's capabilities are relevant in an increasingly complex technical domain
