The Opportunity
We're working with a leading aerospace organisation developing next-generation flight simulation systems used to train pilots globally.
This is a hands-on Systems Test & Integration role where you'll take ownership of integrating, testing, and delivering complex real-time systems - playing a key part in ensuring products meet both operational and customer requirements.
You'll also work directly with customers during system acceptance, giving you real visibility and impact across the full project lifecycle.
What You'll Be Doing
System Integration
• Integrate hardware and software subsystems into fully functional flight simulation systems
• Work with multidisciplinary teams (software, electronics, mechanical) to ensure seamless system performance
• Diagnose and resolve integration issues, identifying root causes and implementing fixes
• Configure and optimise systems to improve reliability and performance
Verification & Validation (V&V)
• Develop and execute test plans to verify system performance and functionality
• Validate systems against requirements and regulatory standards
• Produce clear test documentation, including reports, results, and corrective actions
• Support certification activities and ensure compliance with industry standards
Customer Acceptance
• Act as a key technical contact during system acceptance phases
• Support customer demonstrations, testing, and sign-off activities
• Ensure all contractual and technical requirements are met prior to delivery
• Provide technical guidance and resolve any customer queries during acceptance
Issue Resolution
• Investigate and resolve system issues identified during testing or deployment
• Lead troubleshooting and root cause analysis activities
• Track and manage issues through to resolution
• Provide ongoing technical support to internal teams and customers
What We're Looking For
Essential
• Experience in systems integration and testing within complex engineering environments
• Strong troubleshooting and root cause analysis skills
• Experience working with hardware/software interfaces
• Ability to develop and execute test plans and procedures
• Strong communication skills, with the ability to work across teams and with customers
Desirable
• Experience with simulation systems or real-time environments
• Familiarity with tools such as MATLAB / Simulink / RTOS
• Knowledge of aerospace standards (e.g. DO-178C, DO-254)
• Experience supporting customer acceptance testing
• Understanding of INCOSE Systems Engineering principles
• Exposure to Agile or hybrid delivery environments
Why Apply?
• Work on cutting-edge aerospace simulation technology
• Be involved across the full system lifecycle - from integration to customer delivery
• Opportunity to work in a customer-facing technical role
• Join a collaborative, multidisciplinary engineering team
Summary
This role would suit a Systems Integration / IV&V Engineer who enjoys hands-on testing, problem-solving, and seeing systems through to final delivery and customer sign-off.
