Days off are provided before and after on-call periods.

What We're Looking For

Essential experience and skills include:

  • Degree in electronic engineering or a related discipline
  • Minimum of 5 years' hands-on experience in a comparable engineering role
  • Strong technical knowledge of RADAR, radio and microwave systems
  • Experience designing, maintaining or repairing electrical, electronic and computer-based systems
  • Ability to work at height to an advanced level and achieve relevant certifications
  • Ability to pass a medical evaluation and maintain fitness levels to work safely

You'll need to be methodical, calm under pressure, detail-oriented, and comfortable working both autonomously and as part of a close-knit team.
