Skills and Qualifications:


  • STEM Degree: Bachelor’s degree in a STEM field or equivalent experience.
  • Systems Engineering Expertise: Extensive experience in systems engineering throughout the entire development lifecycle, ideally within Aerospace or Defence sectors.
  • Requirements Capture & Management: Proven background in capturing and managing requirements, with a strong understanding of how requirements impact platform and equipment planning.
