Senior Hybrid Powertrain Integration Engineer

AIRO Group Holdings, Inc. • Montreal, QC

5d • CA$95,000 - CA$120,000 • Hybrid

About The Position

As a Level 3 Senior Hybrid Powertrain Integration Engineer, you are a core member of the execution tier, responsible for leading the electrical and functional integration of the parallel-source hybrid architecture. In this role, you will own the configuration and localized validation of the high-voltage bus bridging the dual battery packs and the internal combustion engine generator unit. You will collaborate closely with multi-disciplinary flight control, power electronics, and systems safety teams to ensure stable power distribution, manage high-voltage boundaries, and advance compliance documentation updates to secure platform maturity.

Requirements

• Deep knowledge of multi-source high-voltage DC power distribution architecture, including isolation barriers, cross-conduction mitigations, and ideal-diode OR-ing frameworks.
• Practical familiarity designing contactor management logic, custom pre-charge circuits, and multi-stage converter interfaces.
• Hands-on exposure utilizing specialized laboratory instrumentation, such as high-voltage differential probes, power analyzers, and vector network analyzers (VNAs).
• Competency in isolating, identifying, and addressing high-power electromagnetic interference (EMI), ground loops, and signal-integrity cross-talk over complex wiring routing structures.
• Demonstrated history working with multi-channel battery management networks, active or passive balancing loops, and automatic isolation tracking units.
• Strong team collaboration habits and cross-functional technical communication skills required to coordinate design boundaries across flight controls, safety, and mechanical groups.

Responsibilities

• Integrate, analyze, and optimize the high-voltage (400V) DC power distribution network connecting the dual battery strings and generator source.
• Configure and validate multi-source bus isolation strategies, including ideal-diode OR-ing layouts and solid-state non-backfeeding configurations.
• Implement high-speed contactor management paths and tailored pre-charge circuits to safely manage switching transient loads and eliminate damaging inrush currents.
• Evaluate, test, and integrate high-precision ground-fault detection arrays to actively monitor isolation metrics between the high-voltage bus and chassis ground.
• Conduct specialized troubleshooting to diagnose and resolve complex high-power electromagnetic interference (EMI) and cross-talk abnormalities affecting signal line routing.
• Document subsystem verification results, structural integration risks, and component margin reports to keep the master technical baseline current.
