• Reviewing requirements quality, assessing changes and managing baselines.
• Working with engineering teams and stakeholders to resolve requirements issues.
• Experience using IBM DOORS or DOORS Next is particularly desirable. Please also highlight any Polarion experience.

• Willingness to work fully onsite at Aldermaston.

These opportunities offer long-term work and a working pattern with every other Friday off. Permanent and contract engagement options are available.
