Jobs at OPAL-RT TECHNOLOGIES, Inc.

Develop and maintain internal build-system and software-packaging tools within the DevOps team. Improve compilation chains, dependency management, CI/CD integration, build reliability, performance, and reproducibility across Windows and Linux environments. Diagnose complex issues involving builds, compilers, dependencies, and development environments while collaborating with architecture and multiple R&D teams. The role requires strong autonomy, technical investigation skills, and effective cross-functional communication.

Develops new business and manages existing academic and industrial accounts across North America for energy-sector real-time simulation solutions. Responsibilities include complex consultative sales cycles, prospecting, account growth, negotiations, technical demonstrations, proposal development, partner engagement, and industry events. The role requires approximately 35% travel and strong knowledge of energy systems, power conversion, and technical sales.

Models, controls, and simulates power converters and power-system circuits in real time using CPU and FPGA environments. Develops and maintains OPAL-RT MMC/HVDC libraries, designs and tests custom circuits, supports client projects, develops controller-simulator interfaces, researches innovative solutions, and documents technical work. The role requires advanced electrical engineering education, power electronics and EMT simulation expertise, MATLAB/Simulink knowledge, FPGA programming, French fluency, and English reading proficiency.

Develop and maintain automated tests in a continuous integration environment for electronic board drivers and communication protocols. Reproduce, analyze, and document hardware and software issues; monitor and stabilize test reliability; and improve testing tools and infrastructure. The role involves hands-on hardware work, including board installation, processor replacement, and oscilloscope-based electrical measurements, alongside collaboration with development teams.

Coordinates international marketing events, trade shows, conferences, webinars, and online training from planning through post-event follow-up. Manages budgets, vendors, registrations, logistics, travel, promotional materials, campaigns, and lead tracking. Supports social media, email, web, and internal communications while maintaining SharePoint resources, marketing tools, procedures, and inventories. Collaborates with sales, engineering, finance, logistics, and external partners. Requires bilingual French-English communication, strong organization, international travel, and flexibility for event-related schedules.

Develop and maintain automated regression tests for real-time simulation software. Build CI/CD and QA infrastructure, validate software releases, create Python and MATLAB automation tools, investigate failures, assess simulation accuracy and performance, document validation results, and collaborate with development teams to improve quality and release processes.

Assemble and mount electrical and mechanical components for real-time simulation systems. Responsibilities include soldering electronic components onto printed circuit boards, performing micro-welding and board repairs, setting up components with microscopes, and installing wiring and clamps using hand tools. The role requires reading electronic and mechanical plans, manual dexterity, precision, autonomy, French proficiency, and intermediate English for technical manuals.

Automate existing and new-product production tests, design and deploy test stations, document procedures, collaborate with R&D on test requirements, train production teams, and improve testing and validation methods. The role also supports digital transformation, business intelligence, and manufacturing system implementation projects.

Coordinates simulator workshop production, oversees projects and deadlines, and ensures collaboration across planning, NPI, inspection, and testing departments. Performs mechanical and electrical assembly, trains and supports workshop employees, conducts daily inspections, reports progress, standardizes assembly practices, and follows up on improvement initiatives. The role also maintains quality objectives and workplace safety.

Coordinates and oversees workshop production activities, tracks project deadlines, and facilitates collaboration with finance and sales. Performs mechanical and electrical assembly, trains and supports workshop staff, conducts daily inspections, reports production progress, standardizes assembly practices, drives improvements, maintains quality objectives, and ensures workplace safety.

Design, implement and optimize VHDL FPGA modules for real-time simulation platforms. Integrate high-speed interfaces (PCIe, Ethernet, Aurora), perform unit/functional/integration testing, participate in hardware and code reviews, and collaborate with hardware/software teams to meet performance, latency, and resource constraints.

Support execution of unit and system integration tests, design test scenarios and procedures, analyze and track anomalies, maintain test environments, support technicians, and contribute to test automation and test-bench development.

Develop and maintain internal automation tools (Python, Groovy, Shell), automate builds/tests/deployments, manage CI/CD (Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI), maintain virtualized on‑prem and cloud infrastructure (Proxmox, VMware, Azure, AWS), improve build systems and dependency management, document solutions, and support/train software teams in an Agile environment.

Provide technical leadership and Level 3 support for FPGA-based real-time power-electronics simulation (eHS/eFPGASIM). Integrate and optimize solutions for client HIL projects, coordinate tickets (JIRA), assist development teams, contribute to presales estimates and hardware/software architecture, and prepare/deliver training and documentation. Collaborate in Agile/Scrum teams and participate in product improvement and validation campaigns.

Provide commissioning, integration, customer support and training for OPAL-RT electronic products and software. Perform internal testing, troubleshoot power system simulation and hardware-in-the-loop setups, and work with utilities, OEMs and engineering firms to deploy solutions for generation, transmission and distribution networks.

Design and integrate electrical/electronic test solutions combining OPAL-RT and third-party products. Develop MATLAB/Simulink and VeriStand/LabVIEW models, generate embedded FPGA code, produce technical documentation and BOMs, support assembly, run factory acceptance tests, debug systems, and install/support systems at customer sites worldwide.
