The Opportunity
Ocean Infinity is expanding its Systems Engineering capability and is looking for a Systems Engineer who enjoys turning complex engineering challenges into practical, deliverable solutions.
This is not a traditional systems engineering environment focused on lengthy documentation cycles and rigid processes. Instead, you will join a growing team delivering cutting‑edge autonomous maritime systems where engineering decisions quickly become real-world capability.
You’ll work across multiple programmes involving uncrewed vessels, subsea systems, autonomy, communications and mission‑critical technologies, helping shape both the technical solutions and the engineering approaches used to deliver them.
If you enjoy ownership, solving problems and seeing your work deployed in the field, this is a rare opportunity to make a genuine impact.
The Impact You Will Have
- Take ownership of complex system elements from concept through to deployment
- Translate high‑level objectives into practical engineering requirements and solutions
- Coordinate activities across software, electrical, mechanical and operational teams
- Support integration, testing, verification and deployment activities
- Drive technical decisions while balancing delivery schedules, risk and operational needs
- Identify opportunities to improve engineering processes, tools and ways of working
- Act as a key contributor within a rapidly evolving engineering organisation
What Success Looks Like
- Engineering challenges are proactively identified and resolved
- Requirements, interfaces and technical decisions remain clear and traceable
- Integration and testing activities progress smoothly with minimal rework
- Programmes are delivered efficiently without unnecessary bureaucracy
- Stakeholders trust your technical judgement and delivery ownership
- Lessons learned continuously improve future projects and processes
Who We Are Looking For
- Experience delivering systems engineering activities across the product lifecycle
- Ability to work across software, hardware and operational environments
- Strong understanding of requirements, integration, verification and validation
- Comfortable operating within fast-paced engineering programmes
- Able to work independently and take ownership of technical delivery
- Strong communication and stakeholder management skills
- Experience within defence, maritime, robotics, autonomy or complex engineering environments would be advantageous
Highly Desirable
- Autonomous systems, robotics, USV or AUV experience
- Maritime operations or vessel systems knowledge
- Communications, networking or mission systems exposure
- Safety, certification or assurance experience
- Security‑cleared or security‑clearable candidates
What Is On Offer
This is an opportunity to join one of the most innovative organisations operating in maritime autonomy today.
You’ll have genuine influence over technical direction, exposure to cutting‑edge autonomous platforms and the opportunity to help shape the future of Systems Engineering within a rapidly growing business.
The environment rewards initiative, collaboration and engineering excellence, giving you the freedom to make a meaningful contribution from day one.
