A place where you can thrive, whilst being part of exciting and rewarding projects and deliver cutting edge technology? Then look no further as Leonardo have a number of exciting and immediate opportunities for System Engineers across their sites in Southampton or Basildon (hybrid working).

We are actively looking for Systems Engineers of all experience levels.

This is a fantastic opportunity for you to utilise and develop your current skills within an industry leading technology company. Working on real engineering problems, designing and developing solutions that sit at the heart of our products… Not to mention, we offer an award winning package.

About the Role

Our Systems Engineers span across range of activities that help pull together all the necessary engineering and technology strands into a high-performance system. As a Systems Engineer, you will bridge the gap between the theoretically possible and the practically implementable.

We are recruiting for a number of roles from a variety of backgrounds and skillsets. Based upon your skills and foundation knowledge, we will assess where your knowledge and skills would best fit and discuss the options with you.

Typical work you might be involved in:

• Contribute to an early concept study investigating the application of new technology on future platforms
• Engage with stakeholders to define requirements for a new system
• Design and integrate new functionality into an existing sub-system in Simulink
• Collaborate with other engineers to design and prototype a detailed model of a system to understand observed simulated performance
• Design and prototype algorithms in Matlab, taking into account limitations and constraints of the target hardware
• Investigate the cause of anomalies observed during integration or evaluation activities, using real trials data

Projects and areas we work in range for applications within Naval, Land and Air. Technology includes:

• Comms and Force Protection
• Communications and training systems
• Communications and messaging systems
• Future Cruise Air System - Tempest
• Special Projects
• Mission Systems
• Electronic Warfare and Vetronics
• Mission Systems – Counter Unmanned Air Systems
• Sensors
• Precision Guidance working on Seeker and tracking algorithms
• EO/IR systems

Dependent on experience, you may lead technical activities and initiatives, or you may mentor and coach other engineers.

About You

Proven experience as a Systems Engineer within a working environment or advanced academic research experience is a must. Ideally, you will have a science-based Honours degree or equivalent experience.

We are not expecting you to have deep theoretical knowledge of radar, electro-optics or infrared systems, what we are looking for are systems engineers with applied engineering experience that we can build upon through training, team working and mentoring.

Domain specialisms include:

• Digital signal processing
• RF systems
• Electro-optic systems
• Medical imaging systems, image processing, image / object classification / identification
• Computer vision image processing (e.g. segmentation, clustering)
• Multi-sensor data fusion and tracking
• Real time data simulation/generation

We are particularly interested in speaking to you if you have experience in any of the following areas:

• Problem definition
• Systems Architecture
• Synthetic Environments
• Performance Modelling
• Verification and Validation
• System of Systems

All successful applicants must be eligible for full security clearance and access to UK-caveated and ITAR controlled information.
