Control Systems Engineer (Electrical / Electronic)- Submarines
Full time Derby, Onsite with hybrid options Multiple exciting opportunities have arisen for
Control Systems Engineers with a background in Electrical / Electronic engineering
to work on the new generation of Submarine control systems. The Control and Instrumentation (C&I) Sub-System team is responsible for the end-to-end design of reactor control systems, from top-level plant requirements through to control function analysis and system verification. There are opportunities in various areas of systems design, and the successful candidates will be aligned to their strengths. The C&I Sub-System team provides direct support to component design, FPGA design, and production teams. Additional support is provided to the shipbuilder through build and commissioning documentation and issue resolution. We’re a leader in propulsion system design and development for the Royal Navy’s nuclear submarine fleet as the sole provider and technical authority. 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. We are looking for candidates who have the confidence and ability to work as part of a team and take the lead on technical projects. We offer excellent development, a competitive salary, and exceptional benefits. These include bonus, employee support assistance, and employee discounts. Your needs are as unique as you are. Hybrid working is a way in which our people can balance their time between the office, home, or another remote location. It’s a locally managed and flexed informal discretionary arrangement. 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 will be doing:
You will be responsible for: Designing the systems that control and protect the reactor plant. Managing and updating the requirements, including traceability, through the product maturity gates. Specifying product level requirements and working with suppliers to ensure these have been met. Verifying the final product against the design requirements. Creating architecture level models to analyze electrical systems. Reviewing and approving design intent documentation. Supporting shipbuilder/vendor build and commissioning issue resolution/documentation. Who we’re looking for:
Qualified to degree level or equivalent in an electrical or electronics engineering discipline. Member of a related professional engineering institution (e.g., The IET). Experience in architecture design and V&V, including requirements capture/analysis methods. Background in electronics to enable an intelligent customer relationship. Proactive and self-starting individual who can work with various disciplines across different engineering functions. One or more of the below is desired: Experience of using requirements management tools (e.g., DOORS). Knowledge of FPGA or other VHDL design methods. Knowledge of functional safety principles. Experience of high reliability systems e.g., nuclear, defence, rail. 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 realize their full potential. To work for Rolls-Royce Submarines, you need to hold a
Security Check (SC)
clearance without any caveats to that clearance. Rolls-Royce will support the application for Security Clearance if you don’t currently already have this in place. Due to the nature of work the business conducts and the protection of certain assets, you must hold a UK nationality. Any dual nationals will require additional scrutiny and background checks prior to commencing work with RRSL. Job Category
