Systems Engineer

You will play a fundamental role in ensuring the quality and reliability of our products: you will be responsible for planning, executing, and documenting validation activities at sub-component and system design and integration levels. This includes designing and executing systems design, requirements analysis, test plans, and preparing validation and verification procedures. You will also work closely with the product teams (Embedded Software, Electronics, Mechatronics, Photonics, Optics and Assembly-Integration-Test) and project managers to ensure that systems are appropriately specified and meet all relevant specifications and requirements. Our products and projects are for both space and terrestrial applications, requiring a high level of quality assurance and planning.

Responsibilities

Develop and execute design and validation plans for complex hardware and software systems

Design, develop, and execute test cases to validate system functionality, performance, reliability, and usability

Prepare comprehensive reports that clearly communicate design and validation, and analyse the performance and progress against requirements to report any issues
