Through life risk and opportunity management, safety analysis, failure / fault analysis, design for security, interface control, interoperability, change control management and configuration control are all important aspects of this role.

The Systems Engineering team will work across all engineering disciplines - including mechanical, electronics, radio, embedded systems, software, security - to ensure coherence and consistency in the system architecture, design and implementation and integration of the subsystems.

  • Strong interpersonal skills to effectively communicate with all stakeholders

Desirable:
  • Experience with a range of systems engineering approaches, and ability to tailor approaches to the need
  • Broad interest and/or experience in radio communications technology, embedded systems and awareness of latest industry developments
  • A keen interest in the space sector and awareness of latest industry developments
  • Experience throughout engineering lifecycle (system definition, design, build, test and operational deployment)
  • System-of-systems definition, architecture and integration
  • Experience of working in the space sector
