About The Position

Reporting to the Verification/Validation Team Leader, the Verification & Validation Engineering Specialist is responsible for supporting the verification and validation of electrical and electromechanical products by combining hands‑on testing, data analysis, and cross‑functional collaboration. The candidate will be responsible for leveraging both traditional engineering methods and AI‑enabled tools (such as Copilot, Jira, and Confluence) to accelerate documentation, test development, and problem solving. Additionally, the role plays a key part in troubleshooting technical issues, building test setups, and partnering with engineering teams to ensure product quality, performance, and continuous improvement throughout the product lifecycle. This position is part of the Verification/Validation team, located in London, ON, and will be onsite.

Requirements

Post-secondary education in Electrical, Mechatronics, or related Engineering disciplines
Proficient in using CAD and engineering documentation tools such as AutoCAD Electrical, AutoCAD 2D, SolidWorks, or similar
Experience supporting test setup design, instrumentation, verification/validation activities, and technical report writing
Experience collecting, organizing, and analyzing engineering test data to support problem-solving and design decisions
Outstanding communication skills (written and verbal) and strong facilitation/presentation skills
Practical literacy with Microsoft 365, Microsoft Copilot, Jira, and Confluence — or the willingness and aptitude to develop it quickly.
Foundational AI literacy: comfortable using AI tools (e.g., Microsoft Copilot) in technical work, with awareness of prompt engineering and context engineering principles, and a critical eye when evaluating AI outputs.
Basic data analysis fluency, Excel / Power Query, Python (NumPy, Pandas), or equivalent for test data review, signal processing, and analysis.

Responsibilities

Use AI-enabled tools (Microsoft Copilot, Jira, Confluence) to accelerate the drafting, review, and improvement of test reports, protocols, and technical documentation, applying engineering judgment to every AI output.
Contribute to the team's evolving AI-augmented engineering practices, automated design review, intelligent documentation, and emerging applications in generative design and AI-accelerated simulation.
Apply data analysis and system processing techniques, including AI-enhanced workflows where appropriate, to test data, fault diagnosis, and product behavior investigations.
Participate in root cause analysis and investigations of product failures, electrical issues, signal anomalies, and testing issues using structured problem-solving methods and data-backed conclusions.
Assist in troubleshooting and resolving technical issues during the product lifecycle through hands-on testing, data collection, analysis, and follow-up actions.
Conduct verification and validation activities to ensure products meet functional, regulatory, safety, and quality requirements.
Participate in laboratory testing, field verification, and validation of electrical and electromechanical product performance.
Assist in the development of new test protocols, test plans, DVP&R content, and acceptance criteria for new product development and product changes.
Design, adapt, or direct the building of test setups, fixtures, instrumentation, and test equipment for new situations, based on analysis of test specifications and engineering department requests and instructions.
As a member of a collaborative team, create and deliver on project plans, test plans, technical reports, and verification summaries.
Carry out assignments of substantial variety and/or complexity requiring a sound understanding of electrical, mechatronics, and verification/validation engineering principles and practices.
Act as a technical resource in a cross-functional product development environment, supporting design reviews, prototype evaluations, and final design improvements.
