Job Description:

Systems V&V Engineer


Based in Bristol


Salary up to £55,000 + bonus + strong benefits

This isn’t just testing.

This is proving that a system designed to protect lives actually works when it matters most.

You’ll be working at the heart of a Command & Control system, the brains behind how threats are understood, prioritised, and dealt with in real time. Complex, high-stakes engineering where “good enough” simply isn’t.

What you’ll be doing:

    Defining real-world test scenarios for complex systems

    Setting success criteria that actually mean something

    Verifying systems against requirements, not just ticking boxes

    Working across the full lifecycle, with exposure to multiple engineering disciplines

What you’ll bring:

    Systems Engineering experience on software-led products

    Experience in verification, validation, or test environments

    Familiarity with tools like DOORS, Rhapsody, or SysML helps, but isn’t essential

Why this role:

    You see the whole system, not just your piece of it

    You work on real defence capability, not theory

    You’re trusted to think, not just follow process

    You’ll be stretched, supported, and developed

On top of that:

    Bonus, strong pension, paid overtime

    Up to 15 extra days leave

    Real investment in your development

You’ll need to hold current British citizenship and be eligible for UK security clearance.

If you want to work on systems that genuinely matter, and be part of proving they’re ready, this is worth a conversation.
