About the Role
Role Description
As an Electrical Engineer, you’ll be part of the teams developing solutions to complex Engineering challenges across the design and in-service Submarine platforms. You will play a pivotal part in electronic product content, defining and managing requirements, working with suppliers on detailed hardware and software design concepts, alongside supporting the development of sophisticated design processes and testing these complex products. You will maintain existing systems and support the development of new technologies and equipment as well and undertaking fault diagnosis across a broad range of products including industrial control and instrumentation, software driven automation and complex Human Machine Interface.
Core Duties
- Support the design of electrical and electronic products by defining user needs, functional behaviour, and performance requirements.
- Produce clear and structured documentation, including functional requirements, interface definitions, design evidence, and acceptance criteria.
- Work collaboratively with suppliers and engineering teams to develop solutions and confirm designs meet required outcomes and can be integrated, built, and tested effectively.
- Analyse design options, risks, constraints, and system architectures to inform early design decisions.
- Apply core technical skills, including system level understanding of electronic principles and the use of modelling and analysis tools to assess functional performance.
The Submarines Team
Be a part of designing, building, testing, and commissioning the Astute and Dreadnought Class, the largest and most advanced submarines operated by the Royal Navy, providing a powerful and secure deterrent for the United Kingdom.
Qualification Requirements
As a minimum requirement you must have obtained, or be predicted to obtain, a 2:2 Bachelor’s degree or a pass at Master’s level in the following subjects: Electrical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, Mechatronics, Marine Engineering with an electrical bias, or Physics with an electrical bias.
