Join to apply for the Senior Electronic System Engineer role at Collins Aerospace
Location: Kilkeel, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom
You might be wondering what makes this role different from others out there. The answer is simple: our team is unique. We don’t work in a traditional, box-ticking way. Instead, we partner, collaborate, and operate in an agile environment that gives you real visibility to stakeholders across the business.
If you’re the type of person who gets restless sitting at a desk all day doing repetitive tasks, this role will keep you engaged. Every day brings fresh challenges, working with a multinational team to implement electronic actuation systems into premium aerospace seating products.
In this role you will be doing a little bit of this and a little bit of that while getting hands on with mechatronics, systems validation, and electronic troubleshooting activities making good use of your electrical engineering degree. You will have opportunities to be involved with the introduction of new products, working side by side with the engineering teams, customers, program management, and operations teams. We are looking for motivated self-starting individuals to operate at a high level and be an advocate for the Electronics Systems Integration Team.
