Job Summary

This is an exciting opportunity to join our growing business as a Support Engineer who specialises in our Cross-Domain range of products. We are looking for an enthusiastic and intelligent engineer to join our team to support our growing number of diverse projects. We deliver next generation Cross-Domain solutions for Government and Defence customers.

The candidate will be required to travel occasionally between the BAE Systems offices for collaboration and training purposes.

The successful candidate will be trained to provide remote support for this Cross-Domain customer as part of a wider Cross-Domain support team. The candidate will liaise with our 3rd and 4th line product support teams, for resolution of complex incidents, patches and to identify opportunities for improvement of our products through future releases.

The candidate may also be required to travel alongside colleagues to the customer site outside of the U.K. in order to carry out maintenance, updates and installations.

The candidate will have the opportunity develop their career within the Cross-Domain domain, gain experience of the wider Cross-Domain suite of solutions, working on systems for secure UK customers, and in time progress to working on implementation and commissioning of solutions for other customers.

Future Career Progression Opportunities

Beyond your first project assignment, there are opportunities to work with a range of Cross-Domain products, solutions and customers. It will be expected that the candidate be willing to travel to other customer sites to work on installation projects, to provide support and maintenance.

You will be assigned a Career Manager to assist you in your development and training within the business. This role provides an excellent opportunity to experience a wide range of projects and technologies, with customer-facing involvement, allowing you to enhance your skills and knowledge to become a future engineering lead within the business.
