Senior Systems Engineer
Location: Enfield, North London
Salary: Up to £65,000

Are you an experienced Systems Engineer looking for a role where your expertise will directly shape the design and integration of advanced technology solutions? This opportunity offers the chance to work on complex, high-performance systems that operate in demanding real-world environments.

You'll play a key role in developing and delivering cutting-edge engineering projects - from concept through to delivery - with the freedom to apply your knowledge across a range of disciplines including software, mechanical and electrical engineering.

The Opportunity

As a Senior Systems Engineer, you'll take ownership of full lifecycle systems activities - defining requirements, integrating subsystems, validating performance, and ensuring robust delivery. You'll work alongside multi-disciplinary teams, contributing to both technical excellence and project outcomes, with opportunities to mentor junior engineers and influence design decisions.

This is a hands-on, technically rewarding role suited to someone who enjoys solving complex engineering challenges and seeing their designs through to successful implementation.

What You'll Bring

  • Proven experience in systems design, integration and testing across multi-technology environments
  • A strong understanding of engineering lifecycles, from concept to in-service support
  • Broad technical awareness across software, mechanical and electrical disciplines
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to work across multiple projects
  • Excellent communication skills and confidence engaging with internal teams and customers
  • Degree-qualified in Engineering, Physics, or a related discipline, or equivalent practical experience
  • UK driving licence and eligibility to obtain UK Security Clearance

Desirable Experience

  • Exposure to Radar, Radio, or Navigation Systems
  • Knowledge of Defence or Maritime platforms
  • Familiarity with communication protocols (RS232, RS485, TCP/IP, CANBus)
  • Experience using test equipment such as oscilloscopes, multimeters or spectrum analysers
  • Understanding of verification standards (MIL-STD, Def Stan, IEC)

Why This Role?

This position offers the opportunity to work at the forefront of complex systems engineering, where your work will have a tangible impact on real-world applications. You'll be joining a team that values collaboration, innovation, and technical excellence - and you'll have the scope to shape solutions, influence projects, and grow your career in a technically challenging environment.
