Help shape the future of Electronic Warfare. Join one of the UK's leading specialist Electronic Warfare teams and start your career developing technology that helps protect the people protecting us.
Every radar, radio, drone, GPS signal and wireless communication relies on the electromagnetic spectrum. Electronic Warfare helps ensure friendly forces can use it while denying adversaries the same advantage.
At MASS, you'll work alongside more than 80 engineers, scientists and former military personnel developing world-leading Electronic Warfare software, products and specialist services. Working in purpose-built facilities designed to develop, test and evaluate advanced defence capabilities, you'll contribute to meaningful projects from day one while learning from experts in one of defence's fastest-evolving technical disciplines.
Our Electronic Warfare Operations Support (EWOS) Group is growing, and we're looking for graduates who are curious, analytical and excited by solving complex technical problems. Over two years you'll work across different specialist teams, helping deliver real defence capability while discovering where your strengths and interests can make the biggest impact.
By the end of the programme, you won't just have completed a graduate scheme, you'll have contributed to technology that helps protect the people protecting us, while building a career in one of defence's most exciting technical fields.
During the programme you'll work across a range of specialist disciplines including:
- Solution Architecture - designing complex Electronic Warfare systems.
- Synthetic Environment Test Engineering - developing and testing capabilities in our Hardware-in-the-Loop facilities.
- Modelling, Simulation & Analysis - modelling real-world Electronic Warfare scenarios.
- Hardware Acceleration - deploying advanced algorithms onto FPGA and GPU technologies.
- Training - helping develop and deliver specialist Electronic Warfare training.
- Technical Sales - supporting customer engagement and future capability development.
Alongside real customer projects, you'll complete our Spectrum Warfare Specialist Course and Early Careers Programme, giving you the technical and professional foundations to build your career.
You'll be based in Lincoln or St Neots, working in collaborative engineering teams. Where project requirements allow, we support a blend of office and home working.
We're looking for people who enjoy solving problems, asking questions and learning new things. If this opportunity excites you but you don't meet every point below, we'd still encourage you to apply.
Essential: A degree in a STEM subject. Through your studies, you'll likely have developed analytical thinking, problem-solving, communication and teamwork skills that will help you succeed in this role.
It would be beneficial if you also have knowledge of:
- Electronics or radio frequency physics
- Programming (MATLAB, Python or JavaScript)
- Electronic Warfare or Radar Systems
- Computer hardware, networking or interfaces
You'll leave the programme with far more than a graduate job on your CV. You'll have worked on leading-edge defence challenges, and developed specialist Electronic Warfare expertise in one of the UK's most advanced environments for defence technology.
You'll also receive:
- Starting salary of £30,000, rising to £36,000 through structured six-monthly reviews
- Private Medical Insurance
- Two pension schemes
- Flexible annual leave including December shutdown
- Professional development and funded learning
- Share Save scheme
- Electric Vehicle & Cycle to Work schemes
- Retail discounts and more.
Due to the highly secure nature of the projects you'll be working on, you'll need to be a UK National, and eligible to obtain and maintain UK Government Security Check (SC) clearance (Gov.uk guidance).
MASS is an independent, global technology company, trusted by highly-secure organisations to provide advanced, digital services that manage data and keep information safe. With our heritage in defence, we offer robust solutions to sectors where security expertise is essential.
MASS is an equal opportunities employer; we know that our people are smart, skilled and motivated and in return we provide a friendly workplace where everyone is valued and has the chance to make an impact.
