Training & Solutions Engineer

Overview

Bring Your Skills. Make an Impact.

At Steatite Communications, we deliver advanced communications technology to customers operating in some of the most demanding and mission-critical environments. From defence and government to specialist commercial users, our solutions enable secure, reliable connectivity where performance matters.

If you enjoy working with technology, solving real-world problems, and supporting customers in the field, this could be your next step.

We actively welcome applications from service leavers and veterans — many of the skills developed in the Armed Forces translate strongly into this role, particularly in communications, training delivery, and technical field support.

This is a unique dual-role position combining Technical Training and Solutions Engineering.

You will work closely with our Training and Solutions Lead and wider Communications team to:

• Deliver high-quality technical training to customers
• Act as a technical specialist for Wave Relay® MANET solutions
• Support customer deployments, demonstrations, and trials
• Help design and configure communication networks
• Provide hands-on technical support both on-site and remotely

Expect a varied role with significant time spent working directly with customers (often over 50% travel). No two weeks look the same.

• Run engaging, practical training courses
• Create and improve training materials and presentations
• Evaluate training effectiveness and continuously improve

• Act as a Subject Matter Expert for MANET and comms solutions
• Support network design, configuration, and integration
• Assist with development testing and system builds

• Deliver demonstrations and capability showcases
• Support field deployments and trials
• Build strong, trusted customer relationships

Ideally you will have Level 3 Award in Education and Training (AET)

You might be a great fit if you:

• Enjoy working with people as much as technology
• Are confident presenting or teaching others
• Like hands-on, field-based work
• Communicate clearly and professionally
• Are practical, proactive, and solutions-focused
• Are comfortable travelling for work

We recognise that great candidates come from varied backgrounds. You may have:

• Experience in defence, communications, or technical field roles
• A background in military CIS, signals, or communications systems
• Networking knowledge (IP, RF, Cisco/CCNA)
• Training, mentoring, or instructional experience
• Exposure to MANET or wireless communications technology
• Security clearance or ability to obtain it- SC Minimum

If you don’t meet every point but feel you have transferable skills, we encourage you to apply.

• Work with cutting-edge communications technology
• Support real-world, mission-critical users
• Friendly and knowledgeable team environment
• Opportunities to develop technical and training skills
• A company that values Armed Forces experience
• Varied and interesting work — not just desk-based

If you’re looking for a role where your technical skills, training ability, or military experience can make a real difference, we’d love to hear from you.

Apply today and be part of a team delivering communications that matter.
