These Mission Computing Systems provide the functionality that integrates aircraft systems, sensor systems and stores management systems with the information and control systems required by the aircrew to meet the demanding operational needs of these aircraft.

Job Description

As a Senior Systems Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in the development and delivery of next-generation mission computing systems for military aircraft platforms. You will lead cross-disciplinary engineering teams through the full system life-cycle, ensuring regulatory compliance, technical integrity, and stakeholder alignment. Your structured approach, calm leadership under pressure, and commitment to ownership will be key to delivering high-performance, safety-critical systems in a fast-paced, regulated environment.

The successful candidate will be responsible for the integrity and suitability of the design of next generation mission computing products and for leading the life-cycle management of the product, including design reviews, verification, and qualification activities.

In this role you will:

Lead the full systems engineering life-cycle from stakeholder needs analysis through to delivery, verification, and certification.
Coordinate cross-functional engineering teams across software, hardware and safety domains.
Manage requirements using DOORS, ensuring traceability, audit readiness, and V&V evidence.
Conduct risk management reviews and change control governance for engineering activities.
Utilise Model Based Systems Engineering to create a robust model of the system being developed
Follow Systems Engineering processes to develop technical solutions to engineering problems
Collaborate with the system, hardware and software architects to ensure consistency, design for modularity and re-use, and technical excellence
Involvement in the full life-cycle from requirements analysis to delivery

Qualifications

Successful candidates should ideally possess:

Degree level education or equivalent in a relevant engineering discipline
Extensive experience across the full Systems Engineering lifecycle
Proven leadership skills in coordinating multidisciplinary teams
Expertise in requirements management, traceability, and audit-ready documentation
Proficiency with DOORS and Excel-based planning tools
Understanding of certification processes and regulatory standards
Experience in Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE)
Strong knowledge of Avionic System engineering challenges
Demonstrated high levels of motivation, integrity, and professionalism
Flexibility, innovation, and commitment to delivery in fast-paced environments
