Develop and execute integration plans for a wide range of prototype payloads, including sensor systems, specialised maritime equipment, and mission-specific technologies
Design robust mechanical and electrical integration solutions suitable for maritime environments
Assess third-party equipment for compatibility with autonomous maritime platforms
Engineer solutions to improve the reliability, survivability, and effectiveness of non-marinised equipment operating in harsh conditions
Manage payload development through the engineering lifecycle, from concept and prototyping through to validation and deployment
Collaborate closely with software, electrical, mechanical, and systems engineers to ensure seamless integration and functionality
Develop system architectures spanning hardware, software, communications, and networked systems
Ensure all integrations comply with relevant maritime standards, regulations, and environmental requirements
Lead payload testing, troubleshooting, validation, and performance assessments during factory acceptance testing and sea trials
Produce technical documentation including design reviews, integration plans, test procedures, and trial reports

What we're looking for

Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced and dynamic development environment
Excellent verbal and written communication skills
Experience working within multidisciplinary engineering teams
A proactive attitude and willingness to take ownership of technical challenges
Eligibility to obtain UK Security Clearance (SC)

Desirable experience

Proficiency with CAD software and the production of engineering drawings
Experience creating electrical schematics and manufacturing documentation
Knowledge of maritime communication protocols such as Ethernet, CAN Bus, and NMEA 2000
Understanding of IP networking architectures and data routing principles
Experience working with unmanned or autonomous systems
Knowledge of small boat systems and marine operations
Previous rapid prototyping and product development experience
Exposure to integration and testing activities in field or operational environments

How you'll work

Collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams to deliver integrated payload solutions
Apply practical engineering judgement to develop innovative solutions to complex problems
Support testing and deployment activities both in-house and during sea trials
Take ownership of design, documentation, and delivery milestones
Maintain high standards of technical quality, safety, and professionalism
Contribute to a culture of collaboration, innovation, and continuous improvement

Why join us?

Work on advanced autonomous maritime technologies at the forefront of industry innovation
Contribute directly to mission-critical engineering programmes
Be part of a highly collaborative and multidisciplinary engineering team
Gain exposure across mechanical, electrical, software, and systems engineering disciplines
Enjoy genuine ownership and responsibility from concept through to deployment
Help shape the future of maritime autonomy
