Job Requirements / Description
As a Systems Engineer, you'll be operating in a customer facing role while helping to deliver a broad range of complex and challenging technical programmes on mission critical solutions for Roke's National Security customers.
You will act as a trusted advisor to Roke's customers, in a position that demands integrity, diplomacy and determination with a wide variety of responsibilities.
Roke are a leading technology & engineering company with clients spanning National Security, Defence and Industry; working alongside our customers to solve their complex and unique challenges by bringing the physical and the digital together.
The Key Responsibilities
Built over a 60-year heritage, Roke offers specialist knowledge in sensors, communications, cyber, and AI and ML. We change the way organisations think and act - through dynamic insights from the analysis of multiple layers of data. We take care of the innovative, technical stuff that keeps everyone safe - that's our mission, passion, and motivation.
Joining a team united by purpose and ambition, you'll be at the heart of an exciting growth journey: having doubled in size over the last 4 years, we intend to double our headcount by 2027. At Roke, every individual counts. We push technical boundaries, together. We re-invest in product innovation, and we empower our people to make a difference.
Where you'll work
You'll find our Romsey site located within beautiful Hampshire countryside, close to the picturesque New Forest District and not far from a superb stretch of the south coast. This is no corporate concrete jungle; this is a manor house site, with ample parking an on-site gym and a driveway full of daffodils in the spring.
Why you should join us
Operating as one Roke, there is a shared belief that everyone has a responsibility to create an environment that encourages you to bring your whole self to work; in a place where everyone has the time, trust and freedom to succeed.
We are committed to a policy of Equal Opportunity, Diversity and Inclusion, enabled by our employee led resource groups of Women In Roke, Neurodiversity, Inspire (LGBT+) ME (Majority Ethnic), Veterans and Disability; which each contribute to making Roke a great place for people from all backgrounds to work.
Mental health and wellbeing is also important to Roke, there is a group of supportive Mental Health First Aiders to lend a listening ear for anyone who needs it; alongside a team of Mental Health First Aid Champions who help build a mentally healthy workplace, challenge stigma and support positive wellbeing.
The Benefits and Perks
Due to the nature of this role, we require you to be eligible to achieve DV clearance. As a result, you should be a British Citizen and have resided in the U.K. for the last 10 years.
The Next Step
