Stop playing small. Start building what others can’t.
There are jobs, and then there are roles where you actually shape outcomes. This is one of those.
We are looking for a System Performance Lead to join a very interesting special project team, working on next-gen, high-impact systems that don’t tolerate mediocrity, and don’t need babysitting.
If you’re the kind of engineer who doesn’t just run models but questions them, challenges assumptions, and pushes performance to the edge of what’s possible, keep reading.
What you’ll actually do:
- You will take ownership.
- You will evaluate system performance against real-world scenarios, not textbook theory.
- You will run trade studies that influence design, not just document it.
- You will define modelling strategies, build the models, own the algorithms, and stand behind the outputs.
- Plus, you will put your name to performance statements that customers rely on.
You won’t be a passenger here; you will be in the driver’s seat.
What you bring:
- DV-cleared, or willing to go through the DV process
- A systems engineering background that isn’t one-dimensional
- MATLAB and Simulink experience
- You can analyse data, tell the story, and defend it
- You collaborate, but you don’t hide in the crowd
What’s in it for you:
- Bonus up to £2,500; Pension up to 14% combined; Paid overtime when you earn it; Up to 15 days flexi leave; Genuinely flexible working conversations; Enhanced parental leave; and much more.
If you want to be trusted, challenged, and part of something that actually matters, then you already know what to do.
Security
You must be a British Citizen as this role requires you to gain not only SC Clearance, but DV also.
