De Havilland Aircraft of Canada is seeking motivated and technically curious Fall Co-op engineering students to join our Core Engineering team for a 4 month co-op placement from September-December, 2025. Opportunities are available in our Calgary, AB, Victoria, BC and Mississauga, ON offices. You will work directly with experienced engineers across a range of aircraft systems and disciplines, contributing to ongoing design, analysis, testing, and support activities that keep our aircraft performing safely and efficiently.

Teams You May Work With:

We are hiring across several functional areas, including:

Aerodynamics & Aircraft Performance

Mass Properties

Stress Analysis

Mechanical Systems & Design

Electrical & Wiring Systems

Completions & Customer Engineering

Project and Liaison Engineering

Ground Test

Materials & Processes (M&P)

Responsibilities:

Depending on your team placement, you can expect to:

• Assist in the creation and modification of engineering drawings and 3D CAD models (primarily using CATIA).
• Support the preparation and review of technical documents, reports, and compliance analyses for internal and regulatory use.
• Perform calculations and simulations for structural loads, performance assessments, stress analysis, or system sizing.
• Review and analyze aircraft test data, and help investigate in-service or production issues.
• Contribute to configuration management, bill of materials tracking, and engineering change notices (ECNs).
• Participate in design reviews, team meetings, and cross-functional coordination with other engineering groups, production, and customer support.
• Develop tools and scripts to automate engineering workflows or improve process efficiency (in Excel, MATLAB, Python, etc., as applicable).
• Shadow senior engineers and support field investigations, root cause analyses, and corrective actions.

What We’re Looking For:

• Current enrollment in a Bachelors degree in Aerospace, Mechanical, Electrical, or related engineering field.
• Completion of at least 2 years of study by the start of the internship.
• A strong interest in aircraft systems, structures, and design.
• Working knowledge of engineering tools such as CATIA, MATLAB, Excel/VBA, or other technical software (varies by role).
• Clear communication skills and the ability to take initiative while working as part of a team.

What Youll Gain:

• Exposure to the full aircraft lifecycle—from design to test to delivery.
• Practical experience working on certification, production support, and fleet sustainment.
• Mentorship from senior engineers and insight into career paths across multiple disciplines.
• The chance to make real contributions to active engineering projects with national and international reach.
