Senior Engineer – Acoustics
Location: Barrow-IN-Furness
Salary: circa £50,000
About the Opportunity
Want to work on one of the most technically complex engineering platforms in the UK?
We’re looking for an experienced Senior Engineer – NVH/Acoustics to join a specialist Stealth Engineering team based in Barrow-in-Furness.
This is a fantastic opportunity to take your expertise in Noise, Vibration & Acoustics into an environment where your work will directly influence the design, performance, and stealth capability of advanced submarine platforms.
Make your expertise count
As a Senior Stealth Testing & Trials Engineer, you’ll play a key role in ensuring demanding stealth performance targets are achieved.
From equipment prototypes and Factory Acceptance Testing, through to new-build submarine measurements, commissioning, and in-service support, you’ll work across the full lifecycle of the platform.
You’ll be more than just taking measurements. You’ll be interpreting data, diagnosing complex problems, and influencing engineering decisions that really matter.
Reasons to use Rodeo

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.

- Support testing from prototype equipment through to fully integrated submarines.
- Analyse and report NVH data, providing clear recommendations to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Work closely with internal and external teams to influence design decisions and solve complex engineering challenges.
- Carry out condition-based monitoring and diagnostic assessments.
- Mentor and develop junior and graduate engineers, sharing your technical knowledge and experience.
- Challenge established ways of working and identify innovative opportunities for improvement.
- Play a key role in delivering stealth assessments, from individual equipment testing through to large-scale transducer measurements during critical commissioning activities.
- Adapt positively to change and thrive in a dynamic, technically demanding environment.
