Senior System Engineer

Our client is looking for a Senior Mission Systems Engineer to act as technical focal point for their Mission Systems department, leading the shift to Model-Based Systems Engineering while staying genuinely hands‑on with the electronics behind their platforms.

This one's for a Senior Engineer who's just as comfortable owning a SysML model as they are troubleshooting a system‑of‑systems issue on the hangar floor.

• Owning the system model (SysML) as the single source of truth across the project lifecycle
• Leading a multidisciplinary team of engineers, technicians and designers
• Managing the full V-model lifecycle with requirements through to integration, verification & validation
• Providing technical oversight on radar, EO, RF sensors, mission computers and datalinks (SATCOM & line‑of‑sight)
• Guiding electronic hardware development; power, thermal, signal integrity
• Running a Systems Integration Lab replicating the aircraft environment
• Liaising directly with Flight Ops, Engineering, and Intelligence Analysts

• Expert SysML knowledge, ideally with MATLAB or similar
• Solid grounding in digital/analog circuit design and electronic packaging
• Familiarity with VPX/VITA standards
• 3+ years in systems engineering
• INCOSE CSEP/ESEP or OCSMP desirable
