Requirements Engineer - Submarines
Full Time,
Location: Derby, Raynesway
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Requirements Engineer to join the SSN AUKUS Chief Engineering Team in Derby.
The opportunity is to take a key role in requirements management, design configuration, and design assurance. You will be front and centre in understanding our customer’s requirements, providing clarity of direction into the engineering functions through the Whole Plant Team, and facilitating meaningful discussions on requirements trading. With the changes introduced by the AUKUS agreement, requirements management and systems engineering have renewed importance if we are to deliver on our commitments. We’re looking for someone who’s up for the challenge that a complex technical programme with tight timescales brings.
Why Rolls-Royce?
As the SSN AUKUS programme ramps up, we are fast approaching our Critical Design Review. Interim reviews and internal communications have shown how the SSN AUKUS Chief Engineering Team is committed to requirements management and making improvements to the way we work across the submarines business. This role will be pivotal to implementing an improved way of working and enabling the business to make genuine, tangible change.
The work we will do for the SSN AUKUS programme will ultimately take us to the end of this century; so setting the engineering systems up in the right way is essential. This is an opportunity to get involved and influence the design of SSN AUKUS here and now.
Join us and we’ll provide an environment where you can be yourself. An inclusive, digital-first culture that invests in you, gives you a platform for continuous learning, and access to an incredible breadth and depth of opportunities to grow your career.
What we offer:
We offer excellent development, a competitive salary, and exceptional benefits. These include bonus, employee support assistance, and employee discounts. Hybrid working is a way in which our people can balance their time between the office, home, or another remote location. As a minimum, we’re all expected to attend the workplace for collaboration and other specific reasons, on average three days per week.
What you’ll be doing:
* Ensuring delivery in line with policy and expectations for requirements management across the SSN AUKUS project
* Management of customer/external requirements, ensuring internal ownership and cascade
* Implementation of requirement trades, assessment, and feedback of design implications
* Assurance of the SSN AUKUS design configuration in DOORS and actioning remedial activities where necessary
* Assessments of design and substantiation completeness and tracking and driving burn down to hit programme milestones
* Being an advocate of a systems engineering approach and the single point of contact in the SSN AUKUS Chief Engineering team for requirements management.
Who we are looking for:
* Have a strong understanding of Systems Engineering Principles
* Be a good communicator, able to engage multiple functions both internally and externally
* Be qualified in an engineering discipline
* Have a strong delivery record with an understanding of programme management
* Have experience/familiarity with DOORS or other Requirement Configuration Systems
We’re an equal opportunities employer. We’re committed to developing a diverse workforce and an inclusive working environment. We believe that people from different backgrounds and cultures give us different perspectives. And the more perspectives we have, the more successful we’ll be. By building a culture of respect and appreciation, we give everyone who works here the opportunity to realise their full potential.
