Job description

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a System Engineer to join a cutting-edge team developing advanced Cyber and Information Assurance (IA) products. This role offers the chance to work across multiple development projects, applying innovative engineering solutions to complex, real-world problems. What You'll Do

  • Take technical ownership of system engineering activities across one or more IA product developments.
  • Collaborate closely with hardware, software, FPGA and mechanical teams to define and deliver coherent technical solutions.
  • Engage in requirements engineering, capturing, analysing and refining requirements across all design disciplines.
  • Contribute throughout the full product lifecycle, from initial concept and architecture through to development, verification, and customer delivery.
  • Support bid proposals and provide technical input to customer discussions to ensure solutions meet end-user needs.

Requirements

  • Degree in a relevant engineering discipline and 5+ years' industry experience in systems engineering or a related field.

  • Strong understanding of the systems engineering lifecycle, including requirements management, architecture, and product validation/verification.

  • Broad technical awareness across multiple engineering disciplines, with expertise in at least one area.

  • Ability to produce clear, concise technical documentation and communicate effectively with cross-functional teams.

  • Experience using DOORS or similar tools for requirements management is an advantage.

  • Must hold sole British nationality and be eligible for UK Security Clearance (SC). Desirable Skills

  • Knowledge of system design languages (UML, SysML) and techniques such as use-case analysis or trade studies.

  • Experience preparing technical estimates for bids.

  • Familiarity with mechanical and environmental qualification processes. This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced System Engineer, or an electronics/software engineer looking to broaden their scope, to play a key role in the design of unique, high-assurance products used in critical national security applications. You'll work with an innovative team tackling challenging technical problems and shaping solutions from concept to delivery.
