Therefore we are actively looking for Systems Engineers of all experience levels to join us on Part time contracts, which can be tailored to suit your specific needs. These roles are available across our sites in Southampton, Basildon and Bristol (in some areas we can be flexible with locations and offer hybrid working).
This is a fantastic opportunity for you to utilise and develop your current skills within an industry leading technology company. Working on real engineering problems, designing and developing solutions that sit at the heart of our products… Not to mention, we offer an award winning package.
About the Role
Our Systems Engineers span across range of activities that help pull together all the necessary engineering and technology strands into a high-performance system. As a Systems Engineer, you will bridge the gap between the theoretically possible and the practically implementable.
We are recruiting for a number of roles from a variety of backgrounds and skillsets. Based upon your skills and foundation knowledge, we will assess where your knowledge and skills would best fit and discuss the options with you.
