Description du poste

Location: UK and EU locations

About the Role:

We are seeking highly qualified and experienced CNS/ATM engineers to support the technical oversight and procurement of new air traffic control (ATC) systems. This is an opportunity to play a pivotal role in a range of significant infrastructure projects, so require engineers to implement a range of communication, navigation, and surveillance (CNS) infrastructure and air traffic management (ATM) systems in line with ICAO, EASA, and UK CAA standards.

Key Responsibilities:

• Provide expert engineering input into tender specifications, technical documentation, and supplier evaluation criteria for a range of CNS/ATM systems.
• Ensure compliance with international and European aviation safety and interoperability standards (e.g., ICAO Annex 10, Eurocontrol specifications, EASA CS-ANS).
• Function as the technical liaison between the airport authority, regulatory bodies, system integrators, and equipment vendors.
• Oversee and coordinate system integration, site preparation, testing, and commissioning activities.
• Ensure continuity of ATC operations during transition periods through risk-managed implementation planning.
• Support safety case development, verification & validation, and regulatory approvals.
• Advise on the lifecycle cost, maintainability, cybersecurity, and scalability of proposed systems.
• Prepare technical reports and provide progress updates to senior stakeholders and programme boards.
• Degree in Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Telecommunications, or a related field.
• Minimum of 7 years’ experience in CNS/ATM system engineering within civil aviation.
• Proven track record in systems design, procurement or deployment of ATC systems (e.g., radar, ADS-B, voice comms, surveillance automation, flight data processing).
• Strong understanding of ICAO, EASA and/or UK CAA regulations and guidance.
• Experience working with national aviation authorities or ANSPs in the UK/EU.
• Excellent project management and stakeholder engagement skills.
• Right to work in the UK/EU (depending on the role) and ability to travel globally.
• Chartered Engineer or equivalent professional accreditation.
• Previous experience working in airport development or ATC tower projects.
• Familiarity with cybersecurity requirements in ATM environments (e.g., NIS2 Directive).
• Proficiency in procurement regulations (e.g., EU Public Procurement Directives).
• Familiarity in applying ATC concepts e.g. A-SMGCS, CDM, AMAN, DMAN, etc.
• Experience in the implementation of EFPS/ICWP.
