You may also be eligible for an annual incentive. You will be part of the Mission Systems Delivery Team (MSDT), where we deliver advanced mission systems engineering capabilities while evolving technologies that will defend the UK for generations. Currently, there are vacancies for Lead Systems Engineers at our Warton site, as you will be instrumental in the Assessment Phase of the FCAS programme. Our team uses an agile work planning process to develop mission system concept options, architectures, and designs for various components of the future combat air system. We are committed to making a real difference in our field, fostering an inclusive culture that values diverse thoughts and backgrounds. If you have a disability or health condition that may affect your performance in certain assessment types, we encourage you to speak with us about potential reasonable adjustments. Please be aware that many roles at BAE Systems are subject to security and export control restrictions. These restrictions mean that factors such as your nationality, any nationalities held previously, and your birthplace can restrict the roles you are eligible to perform within the organization. All applicants must achieve at least the Baseline Personnel Security Standard, with many roles requiring higher levels of National Security Vetting that typically necessitate 5 to 10 years of continuous UK residency for meaningful checks. I look forward to your application!
