System Engineer

Join a pioneering defence programme developing the UK’s first deployable Laser Directed Energy Weapon (LDEW) system. We are looking for talented and flexible engineers to contribute across multiple sub-systems, including Data-Logging and Monitoring (DLM), Image Processing and Control (IPPU), Beam Director, Laser Source, and Fire Enable System (FES).

These sub-systems are critical to capturing system performance, processing sensor imagery, directing the high-energy beam, generating the laser source, and ensuring safety control functions. Responsibilities include hardware delivery, assembly, integration, testing, and certification, with opportunities to work across multiple project streams and develop cutting-edge technology.

Reporting to the Head of Equipment within the Chief Design Engineer’s organisation, this role provides scope to grow your technical expertise, lead work packages, and influence sub-system design and integration.
