We are seeking a highly skilled Missile System Test Engineer to join our team at Matchtech. As a key member of our engineering team, you will play a vital role in supporting the test and testability aspects of missiles, ensuring design for test considerations and specifying factory, in-service, and Built-In-Test (BIT) routines.

This is a challenging opportunity for an experienced engineer with a strong background in electrical or electronic engineering, ideally including digital electronics, analogue electronics, or electronics testing. You will work closely with manufacturing and design teams to ensure testability and minimize gaps in test coverage.

The ideal candidate will have a degree in a relevant field and experience in requirements capture, project management, and stakeholder management. Strong interpersonal and communication skills are essential, with the ability to influence stakeholders and travel when required. Experience in the Defence/Aerospace or safety-regulated environment is desirable.

As a Missile System Test Engineer, you can expect a competitive salary range of £60,000 - £80,000 per annum, depending on experience. We also offer flexible working hours and remote working options, as well as opportunities for development and training.

In this role, you will be responsible for:

  • Supporting the definition and implementation of the project test strategy
  • Defining and implementing the project BIT architecture, including coverage requirements, BIT timings, and system level BIT routines
  • Supporting the definition and implementation of missile factory pass out testing
  • Defining in-service test routines on missiles
  • Generating and managing compliance to lower-level test requirements
  • Analysing and modelling the system to understand test coverage and generate diagnostic instructions
  • Proposing and recommending cost vs test coverage trade-offs

At Matchtech, we value diversity and inclusion, with over 10 networking groups and communities across the business. We are committed to providing a supportive and inclusive work environment, and offer a range of benefits to support your career and wellbeing.
