Senior System Engineer

This key role sits at the forefront of cutting-edge technology in aerospace and similarly advanced engineering fields. As a Senior Systems Engineer, you will work on mission-critical products, acting as a central technical link between engineering disciplines and shaping system-level decisions that drive overall product success.

You will be involved across the full systems lifecycle - requirements development, design, verification, and integration - while working closely with multidisciplinary teams. For those seeking leadership experience, there is scope to mentor or guide small engineering groups, making this an ideal next step for someone looking to grow their influence.

Ideally, you will bring experience from the aerospace sector or a comparable high-tech, safety-critical environment. However, candidates from related industries such as defence, automotive, robotics, or complex electronics systems are strongly encouraged to apply. A solid foundation in hardware, electronics, and software integration is highly valued.

The organisation is committed to long-term development, offering an annual training budget, clear progression opportunities, and a supportive, collaborative culture. In addition to a competitive salary, you will benefit from a generous bonus scheme, enhanced holiday entitlement, and hybrid working arrangements.

This is an exceptional opportunity for a Senior Systems Engineer seeking technical challenge, leadership growth, and the chance to contribute to high-profile, safety-critical programmes.

Requirements:

Degree in engineering or a related discipline.
Significant experience in a high-tech or safety-critical engineering environment.
Proven systems integration experience within complex, cross-functional products
Only candidates based in UK and eligible to work in UK are allowed
