YT Tech is partnering with defence organisation looking for a system engineer on a permanent basis.
On behalf of this company, we are seeking a flexible, enthusiastic, and highly experienced Systems Engineer to join their dynamic R&D team. This is a hands-on design and technical leadership role where you will take complete ownership of system designs, guiding products from initial concept through to manufacture and through-life support.
Key Responsibilities
As a Systems Engineer, your blend of hands-on technical skill and engineering management will see you:
*
System Design & Integration: Participate in the full development, integration, verification, and validation of advanced engineering projects.
*
Requirements & Specifications: Produce comprehensive requirement specifications in line with customer and product goals.
*
Testing & Diagnostics: Formulate and execute test strategies, plans, and procedures; evaluate prototypes and handle fault-finding and resolution.
*
Cross-Functional Leadership: Provide technical oversight and collaborate closely with a multi-disciplinary internal team (Software, RF, PCB Layout, Mechanical) and external partners.
*
Mentorship: Act as a technical mentor to less experienced engineers as the team continues to grow.
*
Stakeholder Engagement: Coordinate with suppliers, manage in-house/external production, and engage with clients to elicit requirements and provide technical support.
Essential Skills & Experience:
*
Lifecycle Methodologies: Strong experience across the full engineering lifecycle, utilizing formal frameworks such as the V-model and Agile development.
*
Technical Debugging: Proven ability to test and debug complex systems across hardware, software, and FPGA firmware domains.
*
Documentation: Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with a track record of authoring requirements, design specs, and test plans.
*
Engineering Tools: Experience managing Configuration Items and BoMs using Aras Innovator (or equivalent PLM) , alongside tools like IBM DOORS, Jira, Confluence, and Bitbucket.
Desirable (but not essential) Skills:
*
A background in electronics or RF design, radio systems, and the use of RF test equipment.
*
Previous domain experience in EW/ECM, C-UAS, or similar defence-sector radio products.
*
Automated Test Equipment (ATE) software development experience (e.g., Python) and working knowledge of Linux.
*
Experience defining and executing formal qualification testing (EMC, environmental, safety) in line with standards like Def Stan, MIL-STD, or ISO
