England, United Kingdom Synoptix Full time

Set up in 2011, Synoptix is rapidly becoming recognised as one of the UK’s most capable suppliers of systems engineering expertise and know-how. We have built up an enviable customer base in defence and aerospace and are now seeking to extend our presence and influence in the rail and public utility sectors – all of which are showing a growing appetite for the type of rigorous system engineering we advocate.

We contribute to some of the foremost engineering projects in the UK, typically supporting large and complex engineering programmes through the application of systems engineering principles. Some of our key projects include support to various submarine programmes, adaptive camouflage for the British Army, Architectural support on Typhoon and F-35 platforms, cyber security support to EW systems. Our customers benefit from lean delivery of agile projects, utilising best practices developed across a range of industries.

The Role

Having taken on some exciting new customers and projects of late, we are looking to enhance our internal capabilities in order to meet growing demand from our customer base. As such, it is an exciting time to join a rapidly growing company and would allow the opportunity to have a meaningful influence on the direction of Synoptix as well as your own career.

As a Principal Systems Engineer at Synoptix you will be helping guide the scope and direction of the engineering projects you are working on. As an agile business in the true sense the Principal Systems Engineer will be given the relative freedom to take ownership at the strategic level of the project. This involves talking to the external stakeholders at a high level within the customer organisation and feeding back to the business within engineering management meetings etc. Internally to Synoptix you are seen as a technical authority and mentor to the early career engineers within Synoptix and have the ability to shape their future by passing on knowledge and experience as well as guiding them on customer project delivery.

Day to day tasking can include:

  • Delivering technical consultant expertise on a variety of customer projects from air to sub-surface
  • Managing a team of engineers across the programmes
  • Development of proposals and statements of work
  • Engaging with customer representative to identify opportunities, and seeing them through to delivery
  • Attending Synoptix internal management strategy meetings
  • Guiding junior engineers in project delivery, where needed.

There is also the opportunity to be part of social activities and helping in other areas of the business if interested.

  • Requirements analysis and management
  • Model Based Systems Engineering (MBSE)
  • Verfication & Validation experience
  • Systems integration
  • Synthetic environments and models
  • Knowledge of systems engineering tools (e.g. DOORS, Dimensions RM, MATLAB, Enterprise Architect)

  • Flexible working arrangements
  • Bike to work scheme
  • Electric car scheme
  • Private health care
  • Job well done scheme
