Our flagship AVIS (A Very Intelligent System) AI framework fuses multi modal data - text, imagery, telemetry and sensor feeds - enabling operators to interrogate complex information at speed and make better decisions under pressure. Our STRIDER robotic platform performs autonomous tasks in hazardous environments, protecting people while extending operational reach. Our ambition is simple but demanding: to converge AI and robotics so machines can sense, understand and act in complex, real world environments. We work with defence and security organisations internationally to help protect nations, infrastructure and lives.

Working embedded with AI, Backend, Frontend, and DevOps, you'll shape how we validate agent behaviours, data pipelines, and end to end operational workflows - from research prototypes through to production deployments for Defence and Security customers. Quality is built in from day one, not inspected at the end. Key Responsibilities Define and own the end to end test strategy across AI, backend, frontend, and infrastructure layers.

Select, implement, and evolve testing tools and frameworks appropriate to modern cloud native and AI systems. Non Functional Testing Own performance, scalability, reliability, and resilience testing for distributed systems. Coordinate security testing activities in line with secure by design principles (e.g. IAM, secrets handling, data boundaries).

Delivery & Collaboration Embed with delivery teams to ensure testing is planned early and executed continuously. Work closely with Product and Engineering to define clear acceptance criteria and definition of done. Provide clear, decision ready quality reporting to technical and non technical stakeholders. Support customer facing demonstrations, trials, and operational readiness assessments.

ISTQB Advanced / Test Manager certification or equivalent practical experience. SC Clearance or eligibility to obtain UK SC Clearance. Preferred Experience Experience in UK defence, public sector, or security environments. Experience testing AI/ML/LLM based systems, including non deterministic outputs.
