Daintta is a rapidly expanding, values-driven team of specialists working with public and private sector clients across Cyber, Telecommunications and Data. We are seeking a highly analytical, intellectually curious, and adaptable graduate to join our Systems Engineering team as a Systems Engineering Analyst, contributing to our mission of safeguarding the UK through data-driven insights and solutions. This role is suited to a recent graduate with a strong academic foundation in Systems Engineering or a related STEM discipline, who can apply their analytical, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills to complex, multidisciplinary engineering challenges. The ideal candidate is a big-picture thinker, comfortable navigating ambiguity, switching between problem domains, and understanding the relationships and dependencies within complex systems. As part of our Advanced Professions Programme, you will be at the heart of our consulting projects, supporting senior consultants, engaging with clients, and contributing to solutions for complex challenges. You will work across the full engineering development lifecycle, helping to visualise, model, and analyse systems while developing structured, logical, and creative solutions. This is an opportunity to build your technical expertise and develop into a capable Systems Engineering Consultant, gaining practical experience through varied projects, mentorship from experienced colleagues, and working within a fast-paced, collaborative, and supportive environment. Key Responsibilities - Apply structured and creative thinking to understand, decompose, and solve complex engineering problems. - Support systems engineering activities across the full development lifecycle, from early concept definition and requirements development, through to design, integration, verification, validation, and in-service considerations. - Assist in the development, analysis, decomposition, and management of systems requirements, ensuring requirements are clear, logical, verifiable, and traceable. - Support the development of system architectures, models, and diagrams to represent system structure, behaviour, interfaces, and relationships. - Undertake research and technical analysis to investigate engineering challenges, assess potential solutions, and support evidence-based decision making. - Analyse interactions between technical disciplines, subsystems, and components, helping identify and resolve system-level issues and dependencies. - Produce clear, structured and logically reasoned technical outputs, reports, presentations, and engineering documentation. - Contribute to client-facing project delivery, collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to develop practical solutions to client challenges. - Work closely with Systems Engineers to develop technical knowledge, learn systems engineering methodologies, and progressively take ownership of defined engineering activities. Skills/Knowledge Required Skills/Knowledge - Degree educated (ideally 2:1 or above) in Systems Engineering or an appropriate STEM discipline, such as Physics, Mathematics, Mechanical, Electrical, or Aerospace Engineering, or similar. - Ability to break down complex problems, identify relationships, and develop logical, evidence-based solutions. - Ability to understand complex systems holistically, recognise interdependencies, and consider the wider system context. - Strong technical acumen, with an ability to investigate complex subject matter across software, networking, digital, and cyber security. - Ability to conceptualise, model, and communicate complex systems architectures and relationships. - Ability to challenge assumptions, evaluate alternatives, and develop creative solutions. - Understanding of engineering principles and the typical stages of an engineering development lifecycle, including concept definition, requirements elicitation, design, development, integration, verification, and validation. - Ability to switch between technical disciplines, problem domains, and levels of abstraction. - Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to articulate complex technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. - Strong organisational skills, attention to detail, and ability to manage competing priorities. Nice to Have Experience / Knowledge - Exposure to Systems Engineering within software, networking, digital, or cyber security environments. - Interest in or experience supporting defence, government, national security, or law enforcement organisations. - Familiarity with recognised engineering lifecycles and methodologies, including the V-Model, Spiral, and Agile approaches. - Familiarity with Systems Engineering standards and frameworks, including ISO/IEC/IEEE 15288 and INCOSE practices. - Exposure to MBSE, SysML, UML, or tools such as DOORS, Rhapsody, Cameo, or Enterprise Architect. - Relevant Systems Engineering accreditation, professional training or...
