Job Overview

We are looking for a senior, hands-on System Integration & Test Engineer to lead the definition, build, commissioning and readiness of laboratories supporting IRIS2 and next-generation Eutelsat LEO services. You will translate system architecture and the end-to-end integration strategy into secure, repeatable environments where RF, network, compute and software elements can be integrated progressively. Working directly with hardware and test equipment, you will also partner with System Engineering, IVV, programme teams, facilities, IT, cyber security and suppliers to expose integration risks early and keep the end-to-end delivery moving.

Who You Are

• A practical senior engineer who has taken complex integration laboratories from concept and design through build, commissioning and controlled operation.
• Comfortable moving between the test bench and programme discussions: connecting equipment, taking measurements and debugging faults, then explaining impacts and options clearly.
• A collaborative systems thinker who can work across RF, network, compute and software domains with internal teams and multi-vendor partners.

What You'll Do

• Own the lab lifecycle: define requirements, layouts, bills of materials, procurement, build plans, commissioning, acceptance and transition into controlled operation.
• Design fit-for-purpose facilities: specify racks, resilient power, cooling, grounding, copper/fibre networking, RF distribution, timing, remote access, security, monitoring and safe working arrangements.
• Build RF test capability: configure and use spectrum/signal analysers, VNAs, signal generators, power meters, oscilloscopes, channel emulators, traffic generators, RF switching and associated cabling and components.
• Create representative environments: integrate user terminals and UE simulators, gateway/ground-segment components, RAN and 5G Core functions, IP transport, cloud and control systems.
• Drive progressive end-to-end integration: turn delivery sequence into a phased roadmap for early interface, interoperability & performance testing as elements become available.
• Integrate vendor deliveries: set readiness criteria, review supplier evidence, support factory/site acceptance, verify interfaces and lead lab integration campaigns.
• Lead fault isolation: debug cross-domain hardware/software and RF/network issues, capture evidence and drive root-cause analysis and technical closure.
• Control and improve the labs: maintain diagrams, assets, calibration and configuration baselines; manage capacity and readiness; automate instrument control, health checks and repeatable test execution.
• Support programme delivery: contribute to verification planning, test execution, defect triage and reporting, and communicate end-to-end blockers, recovery options and technical risk clearly.

What You'll Need / Essential experience

• A degree in Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Telecommunications, Computer Science, Physics or a related discipline, or equivalent practical experience.
• Substa
