As  Systems  Safety Engineer, you will own the application of a comprehensive safety approach within a specific  programme , ensuring that safety practices are integrated rigorously across design,  development  and  delivery  lifecycles. Working closely with engineering and delivery teams, you will conduct safety assessments against ARP4761A and MIL-STD-882, govern safety requirements traceability and present structured safety cases to  programme  stakeholders. Your work directly  determines  whether 's systems meet their safety  objectives  and  comply with  applicable standards, contributing to both  programme -level compliance and the continuous maturation of safety processes across the  organisa
Conduct system safety assessments including AFHA/SFHA, PASA/PSSA, ASA/SSA and Particular Risk Analysis in accordance with ARP4761A, and perform hazard analyses and risk assessments at system, subsystem and component level in compliance with MIL-STD-882  
Develop, manage and maintain system safety requirements with full traceability, supporting engineering teams in integrating safety considerations into their design and development processes from the outset rather than retrospectively  
Contribute to the creation and maintenance of a System Safety Programme Plan that aligns with MIL-STD-882 and ARP4754B, ensuring documentation meets the rigour required for regulatory compliance and audit readiness  
Present safety cases clearly to programme stakeholders, translating complex safety data and risk assessments into structured, decision-ready arguments that directly influence design and programme milestone decisions  
Support and participate in safety audits to confirm that systems meet defined safety objectives, identifying gaps, driving corrective actions and feeding lessons learned back into 's cross-programme safety processes

Note: We operate in an industry where women, as well as other minority groups, are systematically   under-represented. We encourage you to apply even if you don’t meet all the listed qualifications; ability and impact cannot be summarised in a few bullet points.
’s work is important. You’ll be directly contributing to the protection of democratic countries while balancing both ethical and geopolitical concerns
The work is unique. We operate in a domain that has highly unusual technical requirements and constraints, and where robustness, safety, and ethical considerations are vital. You will face unique Engineering and AI challenges that make a meaningful impact in the world
Our work frequently takes us right up to the state of the art in technical innovation, be it reinforcement learning, distributed systems, generative AI, or deployment infrastructure. The defence industry is entering the most exciting phase of the technological development curve. Advances in our field of world are not incremental: is part of, and often leading, historic leaps forward
In our domain, success is a matter of order-of-magnitude improvements and novel capabilities. This means we take bets, aim high, and focus on big opportunities. Despite being a relatively young company, has already been selected for multiple significant government contracts
We actively encourage healthy, proactive, and diverse debate internally about what we do and how we choose to do it. Teams and individual engineers are trusted (and encouraged) to practise responsible autonomy and critical thinking, and to focus on outcomes, not conformity. At you will have a say in how we (and you!) work, the opportunity to engage on what does and doesn’t work, and to take ownership of aspects of our culture that you care deeply about
