Job Description

Overview

From satellites searching for new planets to rovers mapping the surface of Mars for 40 years space customers have depended on Teledyne e2v to provide technology that is literally out of this world. Teledyne e2v has been trusted to design and deliver imaging sensors and subsystems to over 150 space missions helping humankind to better understand the world we live in.

Working with us will enable you to develop and gain experience in the ideas that are behind some of the most advanced technologies in the world. You will also get a chance to work alongside highly experienced engineers technicians and scientists.

Teledyne e2v provides high performance CCD CMOS and IR sensors for space science earth observation astronomy and high energy physics applications. Sensors are designed fabricated postprocessed packaged and tested in our facilities in Chelmsford (UK) and Grenoble (France).

Teledyne e2v is now working on several largescale multiyear projects that are significantly increasing the demand level on its operations. In recent years Teledyne e2v has also secured contracts to deliver solutions at a focal plane level including mechanical assembly cryogenics and proximity electronics.

With a long and enviable history of technical and scientific innovation Teledyne e2v is always working at the forefront of technology. Teledyne e2v is now looking at expanding their capability/product portfolio to include Front End Electronics for Space and Space Payloads.

Role Overview:

To support our continued growth we have an exciting new opportunity for a Systems Engineer to join our expanding team. The candidate will be given the responsibility of managing the requirements on a Front End Electronics subsystem project. This includes the flow down of toplevel requirements to functional subsets providing full links and requirement traceability using JAMA. There is the possibility that the Systems Engineer will work on multiple projects depending on workload.

The Systems Engineer role is responsible for managing and maintain the requirements set throughout the project lifecycle using their expertise and experience to communicate with stakeholders regarding compliance of requirements and help define the validation and verification methods.

The Systems Engineer must have a good multidisciplinary engineering understanding to oversee and review the various inputs from functional engineering teams. Requirement status and associated technical risk management will be kept up to date throughout the project lifecycle. This includes the retirement of risk and progressive selloff of requirements. The Systems Engineer will provide critical support to the rest of the Project Team throughout the project lifecycle particularly preparation of documentation for milestone reviews.

Key Responsibilities:

• Gather and document system requirements from stakeholders
• Manage requirement set maintaining the compliance verification matrix throughout with the use of JAMA
• Flow down of requirements from system level to functional subsets maintaining links and traceability.
• Collaborate with cross functional teams to translate requirements into derived technical specifications where required.
• Play a key role in preparation and collation of milestone datapacks.
• Contribute to Engineering Management Plan working closely with the Project Lead Engineer.
• Help define the validation and verification methods of the requirements linking to relevant test plans.
• Generate waivers and requests for deviations against requirements when agreed with internal stakeholders.
• Support the Project Team through major gate reviews by preparing documentation
• Drive the strategy for progressive selloff of requirements and reduction of technical risk throughout the project lifecycle.
• Subcontract work package management with support of relevant inhouse experts.
• Manage the technical risk/opportunities on a project and their mitigation/capture activities.
• Delivery of system bids (in conjunction with bid team) and writing technical proposals.
• Configuration Control of the technical aspects of the product and project.
• Compliance of FrontEnd Electronics and Payload Systems to ECSS standards

Essential Skills & Experience:

• Working Systems Engineering knowledge with experience on complex systems projects
• Excellent communication skills
• Knowledge of a requirements management system and flow down of requirements
• Technical risk management
• Facilitation of tradeoff discussions and analysis
• Preparation of milestone documentation
• Broad knowledge across multiple engineering disciplines
• Ability to manage customer expectations and avoid unwanted scope creep.
• Good technical presentation and document writing skills

The above role profile is not meant to be an exhaustive list and duties within areas of responsibilities will be expected to change to meet the changing needs of our business.

Desired Skills and Experience

• Previous experience in the Space industry preferably on Space Systems projects. Experience in Defence or Aerospace industries is also considered advantageous.
• Space Electronics or electronics delivered to high reliability specifications.
• Experience with ECSS standards especially with respect frontend electronics and payload systems. Experience delivering to Equivalent high reliability aerospace or defence standards is also advantageous.
