Purpose of the role:
We are seeking a highly motivated Senior Test Capability Engineer to join a high‑performing, fast‑paced, and growing test team, playing a key role in supporting technology development by ensuring the capability, availability, and reliability for several on‑site test stands. The role involves working closely with test stakeholders to understand future capability requirements, develop and evaluate technical design solutions, and deliver agreed upgrades in line with test schedules. Working collaboratively with the test team and wider business, the role will also focus on identifying, investigating, and resolving issues to maintain safe and continuous test operations.

Safety will remain the foremost consideration in all design and implementation activities. The role also requires providing strong technical leadership through peer reviews, mentoring junior engineers, failure mode analyses, fault‑finding, and driving improvement initiatives to maximise test stand availability. In addition, the role will support scheduling, work package planning, commissioning, maintenance planning, and provide clear, regular updates to test management and project teams to ensure delivery against agreed timescales.
