Job description

Senior Systems Engineer – Aerospace & Defence

Our large Defence client are seeking an experienced Senior Systems Engineer to join their dynamic engineering team working on cutting-edge aerospace and defence technology. This is an exciting opportunity to shape the future of safety-critical systems in both civil and military aerospace applications.

As a Senior Systems Engineer, you’ll play a key role in developing engineering solutions to real-world, mission-critical problems—supporting our work in aircraft, unmanned systems, and soldier-worn technologies.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop system-level solutions using a structured systems engineering approach.
  • Engage with stakeholders to define and elicit clear, actionable requirements.
  • Derive and decompose customer requirements into technical product specifications.
  • Perform requirements-based verification and validation using both manual and scripted techniques.
  • Produce key artefacts to meet ARP4754, DO-178 and DO-254 standards.
  • Create and maintain technical documentation including system design and interface control documents.
  • Manage engineering changes throughout the product development lifecycle.
  • Contribute to technical proposals and cost estimations.

About You

  • Degree-qualified in engineering or a related scientific discipline.
  • Experienced in developing safety-critical systems in line with ARP4754, DO-178, and DO-254—ideally at the highest DAL level.
  • Skilled in using Microsoft Office tools (including Visio, Excel, Word) and DOORS. DXL scripting knowledge is a bonus.
  • Comfortable working both independently and collaboratively within a multi-disciplinary environment.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with a sharp eye for detail and a systems-level mindset.
  • Desirable Experience

  • Familiarity with MATLAB and Simulink.
  • Knowledge of change control and problem reporting processes.
  • Exposure to SOI audits and certification reviews.
  • Experience with SysML modelling and systems architecture.
  • Understanding of IEC61508 and military aerospace standards.
  • Create a job alert for this search
