System Engineer (Integration and Test)

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Systems Engineer, focussed on Integration & Test, to join a team developing advanced flight simulation systems used by pilot training operations around the world.

You will play a key role in system integration, verification, and validation, ensuring these complex simulators meet rigorous operational standards and customer requirements. This is a hands on position at the heart of a major transformation programme, ideal for someone who is highly motivated, customer focused, and eager to implement change.

• Lead the integration of hardware and software subsystems into cohesive flight simulation systems.
• Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to design and execute integration procedures.
• Diagnose and resolve integration issues, optimizing system configurations for performance and reliability.

• Define and execute test plans to verify functionality, safety, and regulatory compliance.
• Develop and conduct test procedures to validate the accuracy and reliability of flight simulation systems.
• Produce detailed reports on test results, deviations, and corrective actions.

• Act as the primary point of contact during customer acceptance phases.
• Conduct system demonstrations and customer specific tests to secure final approval.
• Provide expert guidance and support throughout the acceptance process.

• Respond to issues identified during testing or customer feedback.
• Lead troubleshooting, root cause analysis, and technical support to resolve complex system problems quickly.

• Bachelor's degree in Aerospace, Electrical, or Systems Engineering, or a related field (Master's a plus).
• Strong understanding of flight simulation systems and components.
• Proficiency in system integration, hardware/software interfaces, and performance testing.
• Experience with simulation tools and platforms (e.g., MATLAB, Simulink, RTOS).
• Familiarity with standards such as DO-178C and DO-254.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills and strong analytical/problem solving abilities.

• Experience with Full Flight Simulators, Flight Training Devices, or other simulation environments.
• Customer facing experience in system acceptance and post delivery support.
• INCOSE Systems Engineering training or certification.
• Knowledge of commercial and/or military flight simulation regulations.

• Discretionary Annual Bonus
• 25 days holiday (plus bank holidays), increasing with service, with the option to buy/sell up to 5 days.
• Private medical insurance (optional family cover).
• Pension scheme with up to 7% employer contribution.
• Life assurance (4x salary, flexible up to 10IER).
• Group income protection.
• Flexible benefits including healthcare cash plan, dental cover, gym membership, critical illness cover, and cycle to work scheme.
• Employee assistance programme for mental health and wellbeing support.
• Subsidised staff restaurant and on site parking with electric vehicle charging stations.

• Primarily office based (four days a week) with regular lab and simulator facility interaction.
• Applicants must have the right to work in the UK.
