Annual salary: Competitive salary dependent on experience
We are looking for a Junior Communication Systems Engineer to join us at SNC Mission Systems UK in Plymouth. We provide tailored mission systems integration and intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) solutions for the UK Government and its allies.
Our unique strength is our mission partner approach delivered by people who have first-hand operational experience. We understand the challenges, have the know-how to overcome them, and work together to succeed. Operating for over a decade, we deliver cutting-edge capabilities from open-source intelligence (OSINT) to uncrewed surface vessels and high-altitude one-way effectors that deliver true interoperability across all security levels.
As a Junior Communication Systems Engineer, you will play a key role in supporting the design, implementation, and maintenance of secure communication systems. No two days will be the same, as you will learn how to deliver complex, high-impact solutions to meet operational requirements. Teamwork is second nature to you as you will collaborate with stakeholders across the business and work closely with our Senior Communication System Engineers to design, build, configure and maintain mission systems.
Some of your responsibilities will include...
Prepare and maintain detailed technical documentation, including specifications, design documents, and test plans.
As a Junior Communication Systems Engineer, you will be working on operationally relevant and interesting challenges. You have ownership, are close to the customer, and final operational outcomes. Ideally, you are a recent graduate in Computer Systems and Networks or a related field. What's most important to us is that you're willing to learn, get stuck in, and help shape our organisation. If you want to influence a growing defence company that turns technology into operational capability quickly, we would like to hear from you!
