Key responsibilities include:

• Developing and maintaining requirement specifications and verification plans.
• Allocating system requirements to software and hardware components.
• Collaborating with cross-functional teams to identify and resolve requirement ambiguities.
• Ensuring compliance with industry standards and regulations, specifically DO-178C.
• Providing feedback and recommendations for improving requirements quality and traceability.

We offer a crucial role within a society-critical operation, where your work will contribute to the development of advanced aviation solutions. You will have the opportunity to be part of an exciting and forward-looking aviation project, working alongside a highly experienced and skilled team. In this role, your requirements engineering expertise will play a key part in shaping both technical solutions and project success, allowing you to make a meaningful impact in an organisation that values your contribution.

We are looking for someone who has:

• The ability to work both independently and collaboratively within cross-functional teams.
• Excellent problem-solving abilities and strong attention to detail.

It is considered a plus if you have experience with safety-critical software development and certification processes, as is familiarity with Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE). Strong communication and documentation skills are essential, enabling effective collaboration with stakeholders across different disciplines. Relevant certifications in systems engineering, avionics, or related fields would be considered a significant advantage.
