**The opportunity**:
MBDA is a large engineering organisation that takes a disciplined approach to product development and test, in order to maintain our market leading reputation in Missiles and Missile Systems. Through our test and testability policy, we ensure robustness in the test and data analysis regime for development, integration, manufacturing and in-service products, across an increasing portfolio of projects.

The Test Equipment and Testability mission is to:

- Deliver world-class Test Solutions, Environment Simulators and Emulators internally to MBDA as well as to our Customer's Armed Forces
- Contribute to MBDA's international Weapon System Test Equipment Strategy, bringing the UK perspective to bear and balancing the need for technology re-use with the need to exploit emerging technology trends

**What we're looking for from you**:
You will work with and coordinate the task packages for both internal and external suppliers to develop and deliver products or technology to our Customers. In this role, the focus is on Test Equipment and Testability where those products are test solutions, simulators and emulators.

For this role, you should be able to demonstrate your ability to:

- Define clear requirements and acceptance criteria
- Develop and understand interface specifications
- Understand and contribute to the key activities in the engineering development lifecycle
- Manage schedule, cost, quality and performance metrics for assigned work packages
- Work within a multi-discipline engineering team (e.g. Systems, mechanical, electrical, software etc )

- Capture transversal engineering partner needs (e.g. Safety, Cyber, Human Factors, Customer Support Services, etc)

**Join a great team**:
Weapon System Equipment plays a key role in the development and delivery of MBDA's products to our Customers. We operate across the full range of Operational Commands including Land, Naval, Airborne and, increasingly the Novel Capability domains ensuring MBDA's systems remain at the forefront of defence capability. We specialise in providing physical design coherency across Weapon Systems for all phases of the development cycle and ultimately responsible for the system elements that our end users interact with. Initiatives undertaken by Weapon System Equipment have transformed the way in which the company delivers products. Our presence in the company is expanding and Weapon System Equipment would like to recruit people who want to expand their knowledge and grow their network with like-minded engineers.

Roles within the team include Graduates, Engineering Practitioners, Requirement Authorities, Physical System Architects, Head of Sub-System, Product Owners, Technical Experts and Chief Design Engineers, who ensure hardware design coherency for all of our Weapon Systems and provide you with the opportunity for career development as your experience grows within the team.

**Our Business**:
We respect new perspectives and experiences, and we value our collaborative ways of working. We are committed to growing and supporting diversity in our workforce and ensuring everyone has an equal opportunity to reach their potential.

We recognise that everyone is unique, and we encourage you to speak to us should you require any advice, support or adjustments throughout our recruitment process. We also welcome applicants who are looking for flexible working arrangements.
