Salary: Competitive + bonus + flexible benefits

We're supporting a long-established technology consultancy that's delivering complex engineering programmes across national security and communications. They're looking to hire a Systems Engineer with a genuine passion for embedded systems, radio technologies, and building small but critical components into larger technical solutions.

This role is ideal for someone with a couple of years' hands-on experience who wants to work in a varied and fast-evolving environment. Whether you're an early-career engineer or a self-taught radio enthusiast with a deep interest in software-defined radio, you'll find this team supportive, technical, and mission-driven.

What You'll Be Doing:

  • Working with multi-disciplinary teams to design and integrate novel technologies across radio, cyber, and embedded domains

  • Acting as a technical lead or systems designer on cutting-edge projects - from proof-of-concept to full system delivery

  • Planning and supporting hands-on integration and testing activities, both on-site and in the field

  • Engaging directly with stakeholders to understand complex needs and translate them into technical system designs

  • Contributing to system validation, risk analysis, and engineering documentation throughout the project lifecycle

  • Supporting internal R&D and shaping future product and platform designs

What They're Looking For:

  • A background in systems or embedded engineering - 2+ years of experience is enough if you have the right mindset

  • Curiosity about RF systems, SDRs, or amateur radio - even as a hobby or side project

  • An understanding of how different hardware/software components work together at a system level

  • Familiarity with embedded platforms (ARM, microcontrollers), firmware, or electronic systems

  • An interest in national security, critical infrastructure, or defence technologies

  • Eligible for high-level UK security clearance (British citizen, resident in UK for 10+ years)

  • A collaborative, innovation-focused team working on meaningful tech

If you're a hands-on engineer with a fascination for how embedded and radio technologies come together, this is a rare opportunity to be part of a growing technical team tackling real-world problems.
