Job description

I'm recruiting for a Systems Engineer to join a growing team delivering advanced Defence Training & Simulation Systems.

This is an excellent opportunity to work across the full Systems Engineering lifecycle, supporting requirements capture, system design, integration, verification, validation, deployment and customer acceptance activities on complex, multidisciplinary programmes.

We're looking for a Systems Engineer first and foremost. The ideal candidate will have strong Systems Engineering fundamentals and be comfortable working across multiple stages of the Engineering V-Model. Someone who can understand the complete system, contribute to requirements and design activities, and work through complex integration challenges, rather than a candidate whose experience is primarily integration-focused.

Key experience includes:

• Systems Engineering lifecycle / V-Model
• Requirements management and system-level thinking
• Hardware, Software and Networked Systems Integration
• Technical problem solving and stakeholder engagement
• Experience within Defence, Maritime, Naval, Mission Systems, Training or Simulation environments would be highly advantageous.

If you're looking for a role where you can make a genuine impact across the entire system lifecycle and work on cutting-edge defence programmes, I'd be keen to speak with you.

Please get in touch for a confidential discussion.
