Senior Systems Engineer – Electric Vehicle Systems Norwich area, Norfolk Salary: £70,000–£75,000 Benefits Type: Permanent, hybrid working is possible. Are you a technically minded Systems Engineer who thrives on bringing structure, clarity and rigour to engineering delivery? This role offers the chance to join a growing technology company developing advanced electromechanical and electric motor / electric drive systems for electric vehicles and industrial applications. The Opportunity - Senior Systems Engineer You’ll play a key role in improving and shaping how product design and development is delivered across the business. This includes: * Developing and embedding processes and procedures to bring greater structure and consistency to product development. * Working hands-on with engineering teams to define and manage requirements, develop technical specifications, and ensure robust validation and verification through the V-model. * Supporting delivery of complex electromechanical systems, including electric drive units (EDUs) and associated subsystems. * Collaborating closely with multidisciplinary design teams to manage FMEAs, DVPs, and ensure products / systems meet performance, safety and compliance targets. This is a technical role, not a project management position — ideal for an engineer who enjoys detail, problem-solving, and influencing how good engineering is done. Experience / Knowledge required - Senior Systems Engineer * Background in systems engineering, ideally within automotive, off-highway, electric vehicle, electric propulsion, or related, complex electro-mechanical systems. * Demonstrable experience of electric drive units (EDUs) and their component parts (e.g. inverter, electric motor etc) * Experience of requirements management, system architecture, and V-model delivery. * Understanding of CAN networks and ideally automotive powertrain integration * Ability to improve processes, influence design culture and drive continuous improvement. * A degree in Engineering (electronics engineering, mechanical engineering, automotive engineering or similar) * Time spent within engineering design and development in a relevant area would be preferable (e.g. electric vehicle propulsion, EDUs, electric motor control, etc) You’ll join a business that values technical excellence and gives engineers the freedom to make a real impact. This is a rare opportunity to shape how systems engineering is done — improving quality, efficiency, and collaboration across a forward-thinking engineering environment.
