Job description

We are seeking an operational, highly collaborative\n Systems Engineer with a robust \nhardware and network integration background to support the \nUnited Kingdom National Airspace System Replacement (UK NAS-R) program. In this role, you will be the core technical catalyst responsible for translating complex infrastructure layouts into actionable, step-by-step technical and work instructions for deployment and support technicians.\n \n By combining your hands-on infrastructure engineering experience with rigorous documentation planning, you will bridge the gap between high-level physical network architecture and ground-level field deployment, ensuring our teams have standardized, repeatable, and safety-compliant procedures.\n \n \nKey Responsibilities\n \n \n

  • Infrastructure Instruction Lifecycle: Own the planning, execution, scheduling, and maintenance of all hardware installation guides, cable matrix sheets, router/switch configuration scripts, and technician-facing work instructions.\n
  • Hardware & Network Translation: Interpret physical rack elevations, network topologies, electrical interfaces, and port maps to author crisp, unambiguous procedures for field technicians.\n
  • Data-Driven Process Optimization: Collect and evaluate operational data to identify bottlenecks in hardware staging or network configuration, implementing measurable improvements to repeatability and deployment efficiency.\n
  • Stakeholder Engagement & Training: Facilitate knowledge-sharing sessions, train internal operations teams on network installation workflows, and author technical presentation content for cross-functional engineering updates.\n

Requirements

  • Education: Bachelor’s in Electrical Engineering, Network Engineering, Systems Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical discipline and 4-8 years of relevant prior experience. OR Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Network Engineering, Systems Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical discipline and 2-6 years of prior relevant experience. \n, * Hardware & Network Domain: Proven hands-on technical background working with enterprise hardware architectures, network switches/routers (e.g., Cisco), structured cabling, and network interfaces.\n
  • Engineering Toolsets: Advanced proficiency with modern documentation platforms, network diagramming software, and scheduling tools (e.g., Jira, Confluence or Visio).\n, * Direct experience with Air Traffic Management (ATM) environments, civil/military airspace infrastructure, or legacy UK airspace replacement systems.\n
  • Familiarity with safety-critical software/hardware compliance environments and change management protocols (e.g., ED-109A/DO-278A).\n, Industry-recognized certifications in networking or project delivery (e.g., CCNA, CCNP, ITIL v4, or PMP).\n
