Systems Engineer - Land

The day-to-day

• Define the system architecture for a land defence programme, and hold traceability from customer requirements through to software and hardware design
• Run integration, verification, validation, qualification and certification, so that capability reaches land forces on schedule and to contracted quality and cost
• Act as subject-matter expert on reliability, availability, maintainability and safety (RAMS) for several project teams, and set the quality protocols that keep the programme compliant with defence standards and government regulation
• Partner with software architects and engineers to turn system-level requirements into software solutions, and keep technical decisions aligned across teams
• Analyse system risks and vulnerabilities, quantify their impact on programme milestones, and agree mitigations with customers and industry partners

• Have guided a project team through technical delivery to agreed schedule, quality and cost
• Can apply RAMS, verification and certification practice to safety-critical systems
• Hold a university degree in systems engineering, electrical engineering, computer science or a related field, and communicate fluently in English with customers and partners
• Are able to travel, and can meet the requirements for security clearance under the relevant national law
• Are fluent in German and English

Note: We operate in an industry where women, as well as other minority groups, are systematically under-represented. We encourage you to apply even if you don't meet all the listed qualifications; ability and impact cannot be summarised in a few bullet points.
