Lead Verification Activities Supporting Australia's Sovereign Submarine Capability
We are seeking an experienced Senior Verification Engineer to join our Platform Automation Systems team, supporting the delivery of critical capabilities for the Collins Class Submarine Integrated Ship Control Management and Monitoring System (ISCMMS).
This is an outstanding opportunity for a technically strong Verification & Validation (V&V) professional to take ownership of complex test and evaluation activities across one of Australia's most important Defence programs. Working closely with Systems Engineering and Program Leadership teams, you will be responsible for planning, coordinating, and executing the verification strategy that enables successful system acceptance by the customer.
As the Senior Verification Engineer, you will lead the development and execution of the project's Test & Evaluation (T&E) program, ensuring requirements are effectively verified, validated, and transitioned through to customer acceptance.
The role will see you driving verification activities across the entire system lifecycle, from strategy development and planning through to test execution, reporting, risk management, and formal customer acceptance activities.
You will play a key role in ensuring technical compliance, maintaining verification artefacts, managing complex test programs, and providing leadership during formal test events and reviews.
You are an experienced Verification or Test Engineer who thrives in highly complex, regulated Defence environments and enjoys seeing systems progress from design through to formal acceptance.
You'll bring strong technical judgement, rigorous testing discipline, and the ability to work effectively with multidisciplinary engineering teams and customer representatives.
Why This Role?
This role offers the opportunity to directly influence the successful delivery of sovereign Defence capability while working on one of Australia's most complex and technically challenging maritime programs.
You will join a highly respected engineering team where your expertise will shape verification outcomes, support customer confidence, and contribute to the future capability of the Collins Class Submarine fleet.
If you're looking to take the next step in your verification engineering career and contribute to a nationally significant Defence capability program, we encourage you to express your interest.
