Responsibilities

  • This is a role within our Systems Engineering and Systems Integration stream at Frazer-Nash.
  • This will involve working on a range of cutting-edge projects, spanning from concept development; systems design architecture; requirements elicitation, certification; regulatory assurance; safety case development and assurance; trials planning and delivery; autonomy; reliability and supportability analysis; and integration of next generation systems. This work will be across industries including rail, aerospace, energy, surface ships and submarines as well as future transport systems incorporating autonomy and AI.
  • Through a range of analytical and practical engineering techniques, you will enable our clients to influence the whole life solution. You will apply systems thinking across the lifecycle to ensure the solution meets the customers true needs. You will ensure it is reliable, maintainable and sustainable. You will work to ensure that it complies with regulation and protects lives through enhancing safety.
  • Here are just a few of the challenges we are trying to solve:
  • How can we provide safety assurance to next generation systems on aircraft and drones, land and maritime equipment?
  • How can we use model based systems engineering to understand space based solar power challenges?
  • How can we continue to stay cyber-secure in a changing world?
  • How can we use digital twins to assure new nuclear reactors?
  • How can we use non-deterministic systems such as AI/ML in safety critical applications?
  • How can we support the client to understand critical national rail, naval and other large infrastructure projects?
  • As part of the wider business area, you will pull expertise from across the company and get a taste of what goes on in different areas of the business. Our placement year students will gain exposure and experience in the huge variety of our work, and the chance to explore where their own skills and interests lie, whether that be a leadership or technical path.
  • You will have the opportunity to travel within the UK and internationally – visiting client sites, attending key networking events, perhaps sharing your work at leading industry conferences.
