Systems Engineer - Weapon Integration

The day-to-day

• Own the weapon integration programme across all relevant domains, delivering a coherent system-of-systems that meets agreed performance, safety and schedule commitments
• Define and maintain the weapon integration roadmap, taking capabilities from concept definition through ground test, flight test and final qualification
• Integrate weapons with the aircraft's mission system and avionics architecture, covering data buses, stores management, software interfaces and safe-separation requirements
• Author the technical specifications, interface control documents (ICDs) and statements of work that govern delivery by internal teams, suppliers and subcontractors
• Shape the verification and validation strategy, and mentor engineers across the team so that integration knowledge is shared rather than concentrated

You should apply if you

• Have integrated weapons such as missiles, bombs or rockets onto fixed-wing or rotary-wing aircraft, and seen that capability through to qualification
• Understand mission systems, avionic architectures and the data bus and stores-management standards that connect them, including MIL-STD-1760 or equivalent
• Have worked across the full engineering lifecycle, from requirements capture through verification to in-service support
• Use engineering tools for requirements management, modelling and simulation as part of your everyday practice
• Communicate technical findings clearly to colleagues, customers and suppliers, in writing and in person
• Meet the conditions for an extended German security clearance (Ü2/Ü3), given the sensitive nature of the programme, and communicate comfortably in English and German as the working language

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.
