About Pegasus

Pegasus is an aerospace and defense technology company developing advanced sensing and alerting systems that connect pilots and aircraft like never before. Our flagship technology, MIDAS, provides real-time flight safety insights to military and commercial operators, enabling safer operations in even the harshest conditions. Backed by major defense primes and government partners, Pegasus is entering a critical growth phase in 2027 and were expanding our engineering team to deliver the next generation of intelligent, connected flight safety systems.

Role Overview

Were looking for a hands-on Electronics Engineering Research Specialist to assist with the design, development, and validation of next-generation aerospace sensing platforms.
Youll contribute to the full hardware lifecycle from concept and schematic design through prototyping, testing, and production handoff working closely with firmware, mechanical, and systems teams.

This role is ideal for a recent Ph.D. graduate with a deep understanding of sensor design whether electromagnetic, ultrasonic, or electro-optical whos ready to learn and grow within a multidisciplinary aerospace engineering environment.

Youll help build reliable, low-power electronic sensors that enable flight safety in challenging and mission-critical applications.
This is a full-time position for a term of two years, supported by the Mitacs Accelerate program in collaboration with the University of Albertas Faculty of Engineering.

Key Responsibilities

Hardware Research & Development

• Research state-of-the art methodologies for electronically-controlled sensors.
• Design and develop high-speed electronic circuits for high-fidelity sensing.
• Assist with implementing low-power designs for battery-operated and wireless platforms (BLE, Li-Ion/NiMH).
• Create schematics, perform PCB layout (in Altium Designer or KiCad), and support bring-up, integration and verification testing.
• Participate in component selection, prototyping, and design optimization for performance, manufacturability, and reliability.

System Integration & Testing

• Collaborate with firmware, mechanical, and systems teams on cross-functional integration and debugging.
• Support lab and field testing for prototype systems.
• Conduct testing, validation, and troubleshooting of electronic hardware and subsystems.

Quality & Compliance

• Contribute to design documentation and revision control.
• Support EMI/EMC, environmental, and reliability testing as needed.
• Assist in meeting relevant aerospace and regulatory standards.

Collaboration & Growth

• Work within a fast-paced, collaborative engineering team.
• Contribute ideas to improve product design, efficiency, and reliability.
• Learn from senior engineers while growing into increasing technical ownership over time.

Required Skills & Experience
