About Canada Rocket Company

Canada Rocket Company is developing Canada's first medium-lift launch vehicle.  

We are a team of veterans from SpaceX, Blue Origin, Rocket Lab, ArianeGroup, Pangea Propulsion, Tesla, MDA, and more, bringing over a century of combined launch and space systems experience back to Canada.  

Our mission is to provide reliable, independent access to space for Canada and its allies in a rapidly expanding global market.  

Our approach is defined by pragmatic engineering:  

• We utilize a single 750 kN engine that scales from light- to medium-lift via engine clustering.  

• We lean on simple, proven technologies to reach orbit faster, avoiding the pitfalls of complex or novel designs.  

• We test early and often, catching problems on the bench instead of at the pad.  

Backed by $20M in funding secured within our first four months, including the largest all-Canadian seed round in the sector and an $8.3M Department of National Defence grant, we are moving with the speed and institutional backing required to meet Canada’s orbital launch needs. 

About the role

Canada Rocket Company is building the infrastructure that gets engines firing.  We’re looking for an Infrastructure Program manager to own the engineering execution of CRC's test and launch infrastructure, from detailed design through procurement, construction, and commissioning. You'll manage third-party design firms, lead electrical systems design in-house, and drive project delivery across multiple concurrent workstreams. It's a high-paced, high-autonomy position that sits at the intersection of engineering and program management, in an environment where the decisions you make this year show up in concrete and conduit next year. At most companies, infrastructure is a support function. Here, it's the critical path.   

What you'll do

• Primary technical interface with third-party design firms, manage design scopes, schedules, deliverables, and cross-discipline integration. 

• Full ownership of electrical systems design for test infrastructure, including power distribution, grounding, controls/instrumentation, site electrical, equipment specification, and utility coordination. 

• End-to-end equipment procurement from specification through vendor management and delivery, plus commissioning and functional testing across all systems. 

• Integrated schedule and budget management across design, procurement, and construction, coordinate with contractors on-site, run design reviews, and maintain progress reporting. 

Qualifications

Required 

• Degree in electrical engineering (or equivalent experience). 

• 5+ years in infrastructure, facilities, or industrial project delivery — ideally in aerospace, energy, or heavy industrial. 

• Experience managing third-party engineering firms and holding them to scope, schedule, and quality. 

• Familiarity with procurement workflows and equipment commissioning. 

• Strong electrical or mechanical design skills with hands-on experience producing drawings and specs. 

• Comfortable in a startup environment where process is still being built. 

Preferred 

• P.Eng or eligibility in Ontario. 

• Experience with test stands, propulsion infrastructure, or hazardous fluid systems. 

• Familiarity with Canadian Electrical Code and Ontario building/fire codes. 

• Experience with DAQ systems, control architecture, or instrumentation.
