Role Profile

We are currently supporting a major recruitment drive for talented Systems Engineers to join an innovative Systems Engineering team based in Gloucestershire.

You will be accountable for the definition and subsequent execution of the systems engineering approach and design for the creation of a new system and/or the upgrade of an existing system. A broad technical understanding of multiple technologies spanning but not exclusive to Infrastructure, Software and Data Environments is required.

You will be part of the programme of portfolio design authority and will lead in the development of key vision, blueprint documentation, associated systems engineering artefacts and corresponding lifecycle approaches to enable successful project and programme delivery as part of the system of systems. You will work within a group of Systems Engineers working on other programmes to identify and manage interdependencies and ensure overall coherence.

Responsibilities will include:

*Systems thinking - conduct activities to reduce the complexity and uncertainty of a commission.
*Successfully define the system and bringing it into service, which includes working with stakeholders, engineering artefacts such as systems requirements, the high level design and systems engineering Management Plan (SEMP) tailoring the approach and considering all aspects of PPITF.
*Developing the maturity of the system definition through a set of assurance gates.
*Conducting trade off studies.
*Develop and maintain segment/ super system architectures and systems engineering artefacts responsible for the programme and / or one or more System of Systems domains, and / or product centres.
*Develop and maintain strategies and management plans for end to end integration, verification, validation and formal acceptance.
*Delivering systems designs and options that are feasible, complete, secure and sufficient to meet the business needs.
*Recommending engineering approaches to building and delivering the systems as described by both high and low level designs.
*Assuring the work of other project Systems Engineers as part of a formal gates lifecycle to assess maturity and ensure the viability of designs.
*Maintaining effective relationships with both external third parties and internal disciplines including business analysis, business change, and software/ test teams.
*Take a board view of the system under development, including the system boundary, wider system of interest and emergent properties, and will use this "systems thinking" to inform the engineering approach and the trade-offs in the design. Draw together the disparate parts of the design and threads of work, and consider them as a whole.
*Work alongside the Project Manager and/or the Programme Manager, which will be accountable for planning.
*Identify and exploit best practice and enterprise patterns from wider industry.
*Develop and mentor permanent team members.
