At BAE Systems Digital Intelligence, we pride ourselves in being a leader in the cyber defence industry, and Government contracts are an area we have many decades of experience in. Our Government business unit houses four of our critical client groups: UK National Security, Global National Security, defence and central government. Government and key infrastructure networks are critical targets to defend as the effects of these networks being breached can be devastating.
As a member of the Government business unit, you will defend the connected world and ensure the protection of nations. We all have a role to play in defending our clients, and this is yours.
Here at BAE Systems Digital Intelligence, we exist to protect and enhance the connected world. We are committed to helping governments, organisations and society navigate digital threats and opportunities.
To support our customers in achieving their missions we undertake a range of research activities, both on their behalf and in support of our own product and capability development. The word “impossible” is very easy to use, but unless it involves breaking the laws of physics, our research engineers have redefined what is possible when the best minds are brought together in an environment that supports diversity and imagination.
We are looking to recruit those with the potential to be open thinkers, and great engineers.
As the cyber and intelligence arm of BAE Systems, we employ over 3,500 people around the world, with the main focus being here in the UK. This presents a prolific set of opportunities for our engineers to develop their skills and progress their careers.
The graduate programme is designed to give you ownership of your career aspirations, supported by training and practical experience to help you succeed. You will be part of our Future Talent Community and be assigned a Career Manager, who will support and guide you throughout your career with us. All of this is designed to complement your career development, fuel your ambition, and give depth to your training and career.
As a Graduate Engineer, you will join an established research team, working alongside skilled and experienced individuals who are motivated to train and coach you on the day-to-day skills required to produce high quality solutions to complex engineering problems.
Our graduates get involved with the whole research journey from day 1, from scoping, preliminary assessment, prototyping, trials, demonstration, reporting, and where possible customer engagement. You will learn the tools, techniques and approaches used by our research engineering professionals and apply them in a controlled environment to ensure research outcomes are achieved.
There are a variety of disciplines within Research Engineering, and while you will specialise in one, you will be encouraged to develop skills and understanding across the range. It is the breadth of skills within our engineering teams that enables us to refine what’s possible. These include:
As part of our graduate programme, we will support you in developing the right skills for both your role and career, but are looking for people who show:

In the fields to follow, please highlight which of the described professions are best aligned to your current skillset and aspirations. If eligible, you will then be invited to complete a digital assessment for the relevant role. The final stage of the process will then be an interview with one of our Engineers.
We are embracing Hybrid Working. This means you and your colleagues may be working in different locations, such as from home, another BAE Systems office or client site, some or all of the time, and work might be going on at different times of the day. By embracing technology, we can interact, collaborate and create together, even when we’re working remotely from one another. Hybrid Working allows for increased flexibility in when and where we work, helping us to balance our work and personal life more effectively, and enhance wellbeing.
Diversity and inclusion are integral to the success of BAE Systems Digital Intelligence. We are proud to have an organisational culture where employees with varying perspectives, skills, life experiences and backgrounds – the best and brightest minds – can work together to achieve excellence and realise individual and organisational potential.
