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. OMNIA are redefining the British Army’s collective training. To do that, we are looking for the best and brightest minds from across the UK. We are backed by British innovation and powered by world-class experts, like you.
We are looking for individuals who want to serve. You’ll have a mission focus, and the enthusiasm and drive to deliver. You must be eligible and willing to obtain SC clearance and will be based at Warminster working in a hybrid style.
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 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.
- 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.
- Familiarity with regulatory and governance frameworks governing electromagnetic spectrum use.
- Experience conducting EMI/EMC risk assessments and ensuring equipment compliance with relevant standards.
- 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).
- Familiarity with software-defined radios, radar systems, or advanced RF communications technologies.
- Understanding of safety assessments related to non-ionising radiation and electromagnetic hazards.
