Overview

  • Drive innovation in defence and aerospace with WOLF's cutting-edge technology
  • Earn a competitive annual salary of $115,000+, negotiable based on your skills and experience, with comprehensive benefits
  • Join WOLF's inclusive and supportive team to shape the future of mission-critical solutions worldwide

About WOLF

At Wolf Advanced Technology (WOLF), we redefine what's possible on the battlefield and beyond. Our ultra-rugged, field-deployable systems don't just capture and process embedded video, they also supercharge it with real-time AI insights, neural-network deep learning, and hyper-efficient encoding. Powered by the latest NVIDIA, Xilinx, and AMD processors, our gear thrives where others fail, meeting the uncompromising demands of global defense and aerospace pioneers.

Born from a relentless drive to innovate, WOLF's solutions set the bar for mission-critical performance. WOLF is trusted by top-tier contractors and program leads worldwide. We're a high-octane, collaboration-first squad that thrives on exponential growth and breakneck development cycles. If you live for cutting-edge tech, rapid R&D sprints, and making a life-or-death impact, your next breakthrough belongs at WOLF. Join us and help build the future of mission-critical video systems.

WOLF Advanced Technology is on the hunt for a full-time Engineer, Design Verification to join our high-performance team in Aurora, Ontario

Reporting to the Senior Manager, Design Verification Engineering, you'll take charge of validating the performance, reliability, and integration of our advanced embedded video systems across defense and aerospace platforms.

This is a hands-on, hardware-focused role where you'll be working closely with cutting-edge technologies like FPGAs, GPUs, and high-speed video interfaces. From prototype bring-up to full system validation, you'll be at the heart of WOLF's verification efforts, helping ensure our products perform flawlessly under the harshest conditions. While the role offers hybrid flexibility, most of the team is on-site due to the lab-intensive nature of the work.

Responsibilities

  • Develop test strategies : Create and execute detailed verification plans aligned with product specifications
  • Lead bring-up efforts : Oversee prototype bring-up, electrical characterization, and system-level qualification
  • Debug hardware issues : Use oscilloscopes, analyzers, and layout tools to pinpoint and resolve board-level problems
  • Validate high-speed video : Test interfaces like 12G-SDI, DisplayPort 1.4, HDMI 2.1, and other embedded video systems
  • Collaborate across teams : Work closely with design, systems, and validation teams to ensure smooth product integration
  • Document with precision : Generate clear verification reports, test procedures, and compliance artifacts
  • Mentor peers : Share best practices, guide junior engineers, and foster technical excellence
  • Drive continuous improvement : Champion process refinements that boost test efficiency and product quality
  • If you're passionate about hardware, love solving complex technical problems, and want to be part of a team that delivers high-reliability solutions for defense and aerospace, we want to hear from you.

    Qualifications

    You hold a Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field (or equivalent experience), with 5+ years of hands-on design verification experience focused on embedded hardware systems

    Experience working with FPGA, MPSoC, or GPU-based platforms is highly valued, as is familiarity with video interfaces such as 12G-SDI, DisplayPort 1.4, and HDMI 2.1. Proficiency with lab equipment including oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, DMMs, and reading schematics is essential to succeed in this role.

    You ideally have experience developing test plans, running regression campaigns, and producing traceable documentation to support compliance, performance, and reliability objectives. Exposure to debugging across hardware and firmware boundaries in Linux-based environments is preferred, though not mandatory.

    Experience working in CGP or ITAR-compliant environments is a plus but not required. We welcome candidates with strong foundational skills who are eager to grow and contribute to mission-critical solutions in a fast-paced and innovation-driven setting.

    If you thrive in a high-tech, high-pressure environment where your work directly supports mission-critical outcomes, you'll feel right at home with the pack.

    Benefits

  • Top-Tier Compensation : $115,000+ CAD (negotiable based on your expertise)
  • Wellness & Coverage
  • Health Care Spending Account, short- and long-term disability plans, and a monthly Wellness Allowance

  • Generous Time Off : Three weeks' paid vacation plus an additional week of company-wide holiday shutdown
  • Flexible Work Model : Balance in-office collaboration with time at home—whatever helps you perform at your best
  • Profit Sharing : Participate in our profit-sharing program after one year of service
  • Relocation Support : Assistance available for the right candidate to make your move seamless
  • Professional Development : Budget for training, conferences, and memberships to keep your skills ahead of the curve
  • Team Culture : Regular social events—from food-truck lunches and sports outings to bi-weekly wellness mornings and holiday parties
  • Join us at WOLF and be part of a team dedicated to delivering mission-critical solutions for the world's most demanding markets. Apply today!
