Redhill, United Kingdom | Posted on 15/10/2026

We are seeking aSystems Engineer to join an Engineering team responsible for the delivery,integration and evolution of complex software-intensive technology systems.

The role involves theanalysis, design, integration and delivery of technical solutions, ensuringthat systems meet defined requirements, technical standards, qualityexpectations and project objectives.

Working closely withcustomers, project managers, software developers, infrastructure specialists,hardware engineers and other technical stakeholders, the Systems Engineer willcontribute throughout the full systems lifecycle, from requirements capture andsolution architecture through to integration, verification, validation,deployment and ongoing development.

The successfulcandidate will have a structured approach to engineering complex systems, withthe ability to translate business and customer needs into clear, traceabletechnical requirements and practical, scalable solutions.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead requirementselicitation, analysis, capture and decomposition activities for complextechnology and software integration projects.
• Facilitate technicalworkshops and stakeholder discussions to establish functional andnon-functional requirements, system constraints, dependencies and acceptancecriteria.
• Analyse, design anddocument cost-effective technical solutions that meet customer, business andproject objectives.
• Develop and maintainsystem architectures, functional designs, interface specifications, integrationstrategies and other systems engineering documentation.
• Define and managerequirements traceability across business objectives, system requirements,subsystem specifications, implementation and verification activities.
• Analyse systeminterfaces, data flows, dependencies and interactions between softwareapplications, infrastructure components and external systems.
• Specify and documentsoftware interfaces and APIs, including HTTP/S, REST and JSON-basedintegrations.
• Support thedefinition of system boundaries, component responsibilities, integrationpatterns and technical design decisions.
