// Role Specification

Job Title: Electrical Engineer

Rolls-Royce has an exciting new opportunity for an Electrical Engineer within the E24S group, focusing on the NautIQ Solutions UK team in Bristol. This role is responsible for the delivery and design of electrical power systems, working closely with other engineering disciplines to design Low Voltage Power Distribution Systems and Equipment for Naval applications.

E24S is a global team operating in the UK and US, and this role will be instrumental in delivering electrical systems to our predominantly naval global customers, who currently rely on our Electrical Power Distribution Systems and Automation products. We are at the forefront of innovation in Aerospace, Defence, and the Marine sector.

We foster an inclusive culture that invests in your continuous learning and development, offering access to a wide breadth and depth of experience. We provide excellent development opportunities, a competitive salary, and exceptional benefits including bonus, employee support assistance, and employee discounts.

This is a hybrid role, requiring 3 days a week in the office. This arrangement is locally managed and flexed to help people balance their time between the office, home, or another remote location, while ensuring presence for collaboration and specific reasons.

What you will be doing:

  • Design, develop, and verify Power Distribution Systems and Equipment to meet specialist, highly demanding technical specifications.
  • Liaise with a spectrum of multidisciplinary engineers to ensure a holistic design process.
  • Present technical information and design specifications as part of the design review process.
  • Support the manufacture and testing of electrical products through to delivery.
  • Represent the Project/Company to customers, suppliers, and operators, with occasional travel requirements.
  • Author technical documentation, reports, schedules, and schematics.

Who we’re looking for:

We embrace agility, boldness, collaboration, and simplicity. Specifically, an Electrical Engineer must:

  • Be educated to degree level or equivalent in the electrical field with experience in electrical design techniques.
  • Possess knowledge of both AC and DC electrical power distribution systems, their components, and sub-assemblies.
  • Proactively identify issues and independently apply problem-solving techniques to manage them through to resolution, considering functional, regulatory, and safety requirements.
  • Have excellent communication and influencing skills, effectively articulating ideas, plans, and priorities to engineers of other disciplines.
  • Be able to work both individually and as part of a team to meet project deadlines.

It would be advantageous if you:

  • Possess a sound working knowledge of marine and electrical standards and regulations (e.g., Class Society rules, IEC61439, Def Stans).
  • Are professionally registered as an Incorporated or Chartered Engineer or working towards it.
  • Have experience in design software such as AutoCAD Electrical.

To apply for this role, you must be able to obtain Security Check (SC) clearance without any caveats. Rolls-Royce will support the application for Security Clearance if you don’t currently have this. Due to the nature of the business and protection of certain assets, you must hold UK nationality. Dual nationals will require additional scrutiny.
