Description

We're building the UK's next generation engineering powerhouse, providing critical technology that strengthens national security and resilience.

At Rowden, we design and integrate advanced systems that sense, connect, and protect data in challenging environments where quick decisions are vital. Our solutions use intelligent automation to enhance speed and efficiency and are built to be reliable and straightforward for critical operations in remote or high-pressure settings.

Headquartered in Bristol (UK), we combine modern engineering methods with cutting-edge commercial technology to create adaptable, mission-critical systems. We focus on solving the tough challenges that others overlook, ensuring our customers can operate effectively in an ever-changing world.

About the RoleWe are looking for an Engineer with at least 4 years of experience designing, building, and operating systems that solve real problems in areas such as Defence, Security, and the Emergency Services. This is a hybrid role, with three days a week at our Bristol HQ and up to two days working from home. Some travel to customer sites may be required.

Who we're looking forWe value clear communicators who are hungry to learn and take ownership. Those who like to understand how systems fit together and get satisfaction from solving hard problems. You might not have deep experience in every technology, but you have enough breadth from past project work, to be a credible contributor in the platforms space. We hire people who build in their spare time, learn by doing, and take pride in their craft. Those people tend to thrive here.
