Raytheon UK is searching for an Electromagnetic Engineer to join our OMNIA® Training team. As Electromagnetic Engineer, you’ll work in a matrix organisation and report operationally through OMNIA Training and functionally through the Global Networks Lead. Ultimately, you’ll work for the British Army, championing innovation, and helping shape the future of military collective training. The Electromagnetic Engineer role requires a customer first mindset, strong stakeholder engagement skills, and the ability to work in a multidisciplinary engineering team in a complex and evolving environment.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop and maintain the Electromagnetic Spectrum Management Plan (ESMP) covering both design and operational phases of the programme.
• Ensure compliance with electromagnetic standards including Defence Standard 59-411 and MOD spectrum governance processes.
• Manage electromagnetic spectrum planning, allocation, and coordination for systems operating within training and operational environments.
• Liaise with MOD authorities and regulatory bodies, including the Defence Electromagnetic Activity, to obtain spectrum allocations and approvals.
• Conduct electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and electromagnetic interference (EMI) assessments to minimise harmful interference across systems.
• Develop frequency allocation matrices and ensure spectrum deconfliction across all systems participating in training exercises.
• Support system design reviews to ensure electromagnetic compatibility and spectrum compliance are incorporated during engineering design phases.
• Perform risk assessments related to electromagnetic emissions, including safety assessments for non-ionising radiation exposure.
• Monitor spectrum usage during exercises or operational deployments and implement corrective actions where required.
• Support modelling and simulation activities to analyse electromagnetic interactions and predict operational spectrum behaviour.

Required Skills and Experience:

• Proven experience in electromagnetic spectrum management, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), or electromagnetic interference (EMI) within complex technical environments.
• Strong knowledge of defence standards related to electromagnetic management, including Defence Standard 59-411.
• Experience working with spectrum planning, frequency allocation, and spectrum management processes.
• Familiarity with regulatory and governance frameworks governing electromagnetic spectrum use.
• Experience conducting EMI/EMC risk assessments and ensuring equipment compliance with relevant standards.
• Experience supporting system design reviews and engineering governance processes.
• Ability to analyse electromagnetic interactions across complex system-of-systems environments.
• Strong understanding of radio frequency (RF) systems and spectrum-dependent technologies.
• Experience collaborating with engineering, safety, and operational teams within structured programmes.
• Degree in Electronics Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Telecommunications, or a related discipline (or equivalent experience).

Desirable Skills and Experience:

• Experience working within defence training environments or modelling and simulation systems.
• Experience developing electromagnetic management plans or spectrum coordination plans.
• Knowledge of spectrum modelling, simulation, and analysis techniques.
• Familiarity with software-defined radios, radar systems, or advanced RF communications technologies.
• Understanding of safety assessments related to non-ionising radiation and electromagnetic hazards.

What we offer:

• Chance to join a groundbreaking mission - to shape the future and drive innovation within a team focused on collaboration across a matrix organisation.
• 37hr working week with early finish Fridays - start your weekend early!
• 25 days holiday + statutory public holidays, plus opportunity to buy and sell up to 5 days and up to 5 paid days volunteering.
• 10.5% company pension contribution with 6% employee contribution.
• Annual company bonus scheme (discretionary).
• 6 times salary Life Assurance with pension.
• Flexible Benefits scheme with extensive salary sacrifice schemes, including Health Cashplan, Dental, and Cycle to Work, amongst others.
• Enhanced sick pay.
• Enhanced family friendly policies including enhanced maternity, paternity & shared parental leave.
