Description:
Systems Engineer
Derby | 4 days on site | Full-Time | Permanent | Defence
A leading independent nuclear engineering group is looking for a Systems Engineer to join its Derby-based team on a major defence programme. You’ll shape system requirements, interfaces and architecture, and you’ll help keep safety information controlled and up to date across a large body of engineering data. They are looking for a graduate +3 years experience to deliver systems engineering across their client project.
The Role
Systems engineering
Produce and manage requirement specifications
Manage interfaces between mechanical, electrical and process systems
Define system architecture and model system functions and interfaces
Work with requirements management tools (DOORS preferred) and model-based systems engineering software (Capella preferred)
Safety data and configuration
Coordinate safety information so it is managed centrally in a single DOORS safety module
Model the safety case decomposition (Level 0 to Level 4) and maintain links to supporting evidence
Produce metrics and status reports for senior leaders
Carry out data audits and spot checks, and suggest process improvements
Collaboration
Work with safety teams, engineering and technical staff, project management teams and document controllers across the programme
Early priorities include updating safety goals, creating missing links between safety goals and safety functional requirements, and producing a major baselined versions of the modules. A methodical approach to large data sets matters however training in the safety process and DOORS will be provided.
About You
Essential
Degree in engineering or a STEM subject, or equivalent demonstrated experience
Three years’ experience as an engineer or senior engineer
Understanding of systems thinking and systems engineering processes
Experience in a complex, regulated industry such as nuclear or aerospace
Mechanical or electrical engineering background, or a clear desire and ability to move into systems engineering
Eligible for SC clearance, and a UK national
Desirable
Experience in the nuclear industry
Systems engineering training or qualifications
Practical experience using DOORS as a practitioner
Familiarity with model-based systems engineering
Awareness of relevant BS or INCOSE standards
Safety case knowledge and experience with data import, input and link creation in DOORS
