What you'll need (essential)

Solid experience in systems integration, test, or trials work, ideally in defence, naval, or another safety critical engineering environment
Comfortable working across electrical, mechanical, or electronic interfaces
Confident communicating with engineers, subcontractors, and management alike
Eligible for UK security clearance, meaning British citizenship or dual UK nationality with British citizenship is required.

Nice to have (desirable, not essential)

Exposure to MBSE tools such as DOORS, Rhapsody, or RTC
Some Python or scripting experience
Background in missile systems, network integration, or design verification and acceptance testing
