I've partnered with a global leader in Defence solutions that have opened a new site in Coventry. As a Systems Integration, Verification & Validation Engineer (IV&V), you will play a pivotal role in integrating and validating complex defence systems that protect national security and support critical missions. You'll ensure that every component, subsystem, and end-to-end solution functions exactly as intended every time.

Your Responsibilities:

  • Plan, develop, and execute comprehensive IV&V strategies across the full system life-cycle.
  • Support the integration of hardware, software, and communications systems within a controlled test environment.
  • Develop and perform system-level test cases, procedures, and formal test campaigns.
  • Collaborate with multidisciplinary engineering teams to diagnose issues and verify fixes.
  • Ensure traceability of requirements to test coverage and validation results.
  • Participate in design reviews, readiness assessments, and customer acceptance tests.
  • Produce detailed documentation, including test reports, traceability matrices, and compliance evidence aligned with defence standards.

What You'll Need:

  • Degree in Systems Engineering, Aerospace, Electrical, Software Engineering, or a related field.
  • Experience in integration, verification, and validation of complex, multi-domain systems (ideally within the defence or aerospace sector).
  • Familiarity with requirements management and test tools (e.g., IBM DOORS, JIRA, TestRail).
  • Strong understanding of systems engineering frameworks (e.g., ISO 15288, ARP4754, or MIL-STD-882).
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced, high-integrity, and security-conscious environment.
  • Eligible for UK security clearance (SC/Security Check).

What They Offer:

  • A salary of £55,000 to £65,000.
  • Industry-leading benefits, including pension and flexible working options.
  • A collaborative culture built around innovation, integrity, and excellence.
  • Opportunities to work on cutting-edge defence programs with national and global impact.
  • Ongoing training and career development tailored to your aspirations.

Take the next step in your career and help ensure the reliability of systems that defend and protect.
