Job Description
We’re building the UK's next generation engineering powerhouse, providing critical technology that strengthens national security and resilience.
At Rowden, we design and integrate advanced systems that sense, connect, and protect data in challenging environments where quick decisions are vital. Our solutions use intelligent automation to enhance speed and efficiency and are built to be reliable and straightforward for critical operations in remote or high-pressure settings.
Headquartered in Bristol (UK), we combine modern engineering methods with cutting-edge commercial technology to create adaptable, mission-critical systems. We focus on solving the tough challenges that others overlook, ensuring our customers can operate effectively in an ever-changing world.
About the Role
We are looking for an Engineer with at least 4 years of experience designing, building, and operating systems that solve real problems in areas such as Defence, Security, and the Emergency Services. This is a hybrid role, with three days a week at our Bristol HQ and up to two days working from home. Some travel to customer sites may be required.
You’ll work across software, infrastructure, and integration boundaries: automating, deploying, and improving complex systems. You’ll use cloud technologies, but you won’t be limited to them.
Candidates must be eligible for SC Clearance.
