(Senior) Systems Engineer V&V – Land

The day-to-day

• Create simulation models of land systems and subsystems, and integrate them into Hardware-in-the-Loop (HiL) and Software-in-the-Loop (SiL) test environments
• Build high-fidelity plant models and virtual prototypes using MATLAB/Simulink, Ansys SCADE or C++ to simulate vehicle subsystems, sensor suites, tactical communications and ground vehicle dynamics
• Engineer in-house tools to automate test procedures, integrating them with the requirements base and complex test rigs to generate rapid, reliable results across continuous integration pipelines
• Agree system qualification requirements and Means of Compliance (MoC) with customers, deriving and validating high-level software performance metrics alongside software specialists
• Enhance the end-to-end traceability of system qualification requirements across all software development artefacts, shaping a comprehensive V&V product strategy that secures final system acceptance
• Partner with programme management to plan V&V activities, monitor technical progress and prepare compliance documentation for military and safety certification standards
• Coordinate final software and system qualification activities with customers and national defence qualification authorities
• Work closely with the quality assurance team to ensure all V&V deliverables meet established quality standards, resolving issues promptly to maintain programme integrity
• Report V&V status and technical risks regularly to the Chief Engineering and Programme Management teams, keeping all stakeholders aligned on key milestones

You should apply if you

• Have guided verification and validation activities for complex land systems, mission systems, vetronics or automotive/off-highway platforms, from initial requirements definition to final qualification
• Apply Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) in practice, translating high-level natural language requirements into formal executable models using tools such as Cameo Systems Modeler, Enterprise Architect or IBM Rhapsody
• Have engineered test environments, integration rigs and automated tools to run V&V activities in line with functional safety and defence guidelines (such as IEC 61508, ISO 26262, Def Stan 00-56 or MIL-STD-882)
• Have verified, validated and tested embedded software for complex mission systems, sensor fusion or tactical C4ISR systems currently in operational service
• Have navigated final qualification and acceptance reviews, building constructive working relationships with military land authorities or safety assessors
• Present complex technical results clearly to internal engineering teams and external customers, and coordinate effectively across multidisciplinary teams

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.

Nice to Have

• Have applied environmental and electromagnetic compatibility standards for military ground vehicles (such as MIL-STD-810, MIL-STD-461 or NATO STANAGs) within a qualification programme
• Have integrated and validated AI or machine learning components within safety-critical or mission-critical embedded architectures
• Have taken part in field trials and live vehicle integration testing at proving grounds or military test ranges
