Systems Integration Engineer Staffordshire, UK
£45 - 50k + benefits
This role would probably suit an engineer with 3-5 years of industry experience or more.
Candidates that have been involved with working on construction machinery, agricultural machinery, hydraulic platforms / cherry pickers, or other robust mobile machinery vehicles would be preferred.
IMPORTANT: Being a systems integration role, it will require practical engineering aptitude and experience and will involve time in the lab, workshop or in the field, performing physical hardware integration, test, problem solving and analysis activities.
Key involvement:

  • Systems integration, test, problem solving and validation – hands-on physical activities at vehicle level
  • Some involvement with systems design and analysis, including definition – electromechanical systems, control engineering, etc
  • Working with external supplier and internal engineering teams for product design, development, validation, integration and test
  • Hands-on engineering design, development and problem solving (use of tools such as CANalyzer, CANoe, Labview etc)
    A background in design / development, test, validation or systems integration would be preferred (e.g. electronics, electrical, mechatronics etc) ideally gained within the automotive, avionics, aerospace, off highway machinery or similar industry. The role could suit a systems integration or systems test engneer, project engineer, electronics design engineer, or similar, with a broad engineering knowledge and interest in electromechanical / mechatronic products.
    The role will involve delivering new feature designs and product enhancements requiring a broad systems engineering appreciation from design and development through to systems integration, test and validation.
    Required experience / knowledge: Systems design Engineer
  • 3-5+ years of post-academic experience gained within the automotive, aerospace, electronics, mechatronics, or other similar product development environment.
  • Experience with vehicle networks (e.g. CANbus) and relevant analysis tools (e.g. CANanlyzer, CANoe, Labview, etc)
  • Ability to read and understand electric schematics and layouts
  • A degree in a relevant field (e.g. electronics, computer science, mechatronics, automotive engineering)
  • Experience of systems design and integration - electromechanical systems, control engineering preferred
  • Good organisational and communication skills – able to facilitate design, validation, integration, etc
  • Product development, test or validation experience having spent time working on or test of complex electromechanical systems (e.g. off highway machinery, automotive vehicle systems)
  • Experience of electronics, electrical, software / control systems design for similar products
  • Good practical engineering aptitude (e.g. software or hardware integration, hands-on problem solving, development of systems in a lab / workshop)
  • Good problem solving and analysis skills
    Others (beneficial skills):
  • Formal training within systems engineering, functional safety or FMEA would be useful
  • Ability to develop and produce software / electronics / systems / test / validation requirements
    The role will require some hands-on support to design, development and integration activities (hardware / software) to ensure product features and systems meet product requirements. This will require engineering design / development knowledge but an appreciation for the greater system.
    The company designs and manufacturers a range of vehicles and machinery for the construction industry. These machines include a range of complex electromechanical / hydraulic control systems and safety features.
    This systems integration engineer role is based onsite and is commutable from Rocester, Stoke on Trent, Derby, Nottingham, Birmingham, Uttoxeter, Stafford, and Burton

How to Get a Better Space Sector Job After a Lay-Off or Redundancy

Being made redundant from a role in the UK space sector can be disheartening. Whether your work was tied to satellite design, launch services, ground systems, mission operations, or Earth observation analytics, the experience and specialist knowledge you've gained is still highly valuable. The UK government’s Space Strategy, increased commercial investment, and new launch initiatives across Cornwall, Scotland, and Wales continue to drive opportunities in upstream and downstream space technologies. This guide will help you relaunch your career in the UK space sector after redundancy.

UK Space Jobs Salary Calculator 2025: Work Out Your Market Value in Seconds

Why last year’s pay survey already misfires for UK space talent Ask a Satellite Systems Engineer wrestling with RF budgets, a Mission Operations Analyst shepherding cubesats at 04:00 UTC, or a Launch Vehicle Propulsion Engineer machining ablative liners in Cornwall: “Am I earning what I deserve?” The honest answer drifts faster than orbital debris. Since early 2024 the UK Space Agency released £1.6 billion of National Space Strategy funding, SaxaVord’s spaceport edged toward its first vertical launch licence, and Harwell Campus welcomed three VC‑fuelled in‑orbit‑servicing start‑ups. Each headline ratcheted hiring demand—and salaries. A salary guide printed in 2024 is already as dated as a Block II GPS ephemeris: no mention of the Scottish micro‑launcher premium, the AI‑earth‑observation bubble, or the sudden scarcity of flight‑dynamics controllers who can wrangle multi‑constellation mega‑swarms. To replace guesswork with data, UKSpaceJobs.co.uk distilled a clear, three‑factor formula. Feed in your discipline, UK region & seniority; you’ll get a realistic 2025 baseline—no stale averages, no vague “competitive” claims. This article unpacks the formula, explores the forces inflating space salaries, and sets out concrete steps to boost your value within ninety days.

How to Present Space Sector Solutions to Non-Technical Audiences: A Public Speaking Guide for Job Seekers

The UK space sector is expanding fast—from satellite communications and Earth observation to propulsion, launch services, and space sustainability. But as the technology becomes more complex, employers increasingly want space professionals who can explain it simply and persuasively to non-technical audiences. Whether you're applying for a role in engineering, mission control, data analysis, policy, or business development, your ability to present clearly is now seen as a critical soft skill. In fact, many interviews now include public speaking tasks that test your communication style, clarity, and stakeholder awareness. This guide offers a practical framework for structuring your space sector presentations, tips for engaging slides, storytelling techniques that work in interviews, and advice on answering common questions from executives, clients, and policymakers.
