Description
As part of our Assystem UKs' ongoing support to a major supplier of nuclear energy in the North West, we require five Systems Engineers with experience of requirements management and the design and implementation of physical security systems. This is an initial 6 month contract, the hourly rate will be dependant on the candidate's experience and skills. Candidates must have UK Mod security clearance to SC level initially and must be prepared to undergo vetting to DV level. Anyone who is not eligible for SC or DV clearance cannot be considered for the role.Primary Purpose of the Role:
To join a team of system engineers defining the system level design of a complex system integration programme. In particular the logical and physical design of the system is currently being defined this will be followed by a more detailed technology specific design.
Principal Relationships:
Working directly for the System Design Team Leader within a team of system engineers.
Collaboration with colleagues variously responsible for system requirements, system simulation and verification.
Key Responsibilities and Tasks:
Definition of system aspects as directed by the System Design Team Leader.
Maintenance of system integrity and coherence during the design process.
Formalisation of solution description, architectural design and requirements.
Formalisation of the components specification used to develop the solution.
Demonstration that the solution satisfies the overall approved operational need.
Demonstration that the solution meets the national standards (TRD & NORMS) for the Nuclear industry
Skills
Highly desirable:
Production of detailed designs of physical security systems starting from existing concept designs.
Office applications (MS Office, MS Visio)
Desirable:
Model Based System Engineering Design Experience; logical and physical design modelling utilising appropriate behavioural and structural views.
Requirements management and tracking tools experience (i.e. DOORS).
Experience:
Highly desirable:
Experience in practical design and implementation of physical security systems (CCTV (field of view calculations, determination of dead zones etc), light level specifications/calculations, perimeter intrusion detection systems)
Knowledge of existing and new nation security system specifications for the nuclear industry (TRD & NORMS)
Experience in the production of System-Subsystem Design Specifications.
Experience in the production of Interface Design Specifications.
Desirable:
Experience in Customer facing/liaison roles.
Experience of Requirements Analysis.
Familiarity with the design of SCADA applications
Values & Behaviours:
Displays passion, energy, drive, agility and resilience in achieving work related goals under difficult circumstances.
Team player
Ability to interface well and communicate effectively at all levels.
Highly organised and detailed oriented.
Business aware and people oriented with organisation and commercial awareness.
