With over 7,500 people in the UK, operating across defence, space, aerospace, and digital security, we help build a future we can all trust. Thales supports the security and stability of our nation by providing extraordinary technology to our customers, as well as delivering social value to the UK with our products and services.

Closing date for applications: Monday 17th August 2026

Help Shape the Future of Connectivity

Are you a communications and networking expert who thrives on turning cutting-edge ideas into working solutions?

At Thales Research and Technology (TRT) we're looking for an experienced engineer with a deep technical background in wireless communications, networking and connectivity systems to lead the development of next-generation solutions for critical defence and security applications.

This is not a traditional product development role.

You'll work at the forefront of applied research, taking innovative concepts from early-stage exploration through to demonstrable prototypes and operational trials. You'll combine your expertise in communications technologies with modern software engineering approaches to solve some of the most complex connectivity challenges facing our customers.

If you're passionate about SATCOM, terrestrial communications, network architectures and emerging connectivity technologies, and want to influence the future technical direction of mission-critical systems, we'd love to hear from you.

What You'll Be Doing

Leading the technical delivery of innovative connectivity demonstrators and prototype solutions
Designing and implementing software-enabled communications and networking systems
Translating wireless concepts into scalable architectures and deployable capabilities
Providing technical leadership and mentoring a small team of engineers
Engaging with customers and stakeholders to understand challenges and shape solutions
Supporting technology strategy, innovation activities and future research bids

What We're Looking For

Strong technical background in communications, networking and connectivity systems
Experience developing wireless communication solutions, ideally across SATCOM and terrestrial technologies
Proven ability to translate communications concepts into practical system architectures
Embedded software development experience, from proof-of-concept through to prototype delivery
Experience with modern software practices, including:
- Cloud-native architectures
- Containerised development
- Microservices
- Kubernetes/K3s
- Edge and enterprise deployments
Experience working in innovation, research, advanced engineering or concept development environments
Ability to provide technical leadership and guide less experienced engineers

If you're excited by solving complex connectivity challenges and turning breakthrough ideas into reality, we'd love to hear from you.

Our Benefits:

Performance-related bonus
Half day every Friday, usually finishing around 13:00
28 days annual leave (plus bank holidays) with opportunity to buy up to 40 hours/year (pro rata)
24 hours volunteering paid for
Private healthcare
Pension scheme
Life cover
24/7 Employee Assistance Program and access to mental wellbeing app
Employee discount shopping schemes on major brands and retailers
Gym membership discounts

Security Clearance Requirement:

Due to the nature of the work that we do at Thales, many of our roles are subject to security restrictions. This role requires Security Clearance (SC). It would be advantageous if currently held, however, if not currently held, it is a requirement that the successful applicant undergo, achieve, and maintain SC Clearance prior to commencing employment.

To be eligible for full SC, you generally need to have resided in the UK for the last 5 years. In some circumstances, a minimum of 3 years’ residence in the UK over the last 5 years may be accepted, with additional overseas checks.

Please visit the UKSV website for further guidance: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/united-kingdom-security-vetting-clearance-levels/national-security-vetting-clearance-levels.
