Defence and government engineering services for complex, high-assurance delivery
Positiv Cohort is a 11–50-person engineering services firm anchored in Farnborough, focused on defence, government, and secure-sector clients. The tech stack—IBM Rhapsody, MATLAB, Simulink, DOORS, SysML, and aerospace standards (ARINC 429, MIL-STD-1553)—reflects deep specialism in systems engineering and embedded design rather than consumer software. Hiring is heavily skewed toward senior and director-level engineering (19 of 24 open roles), signaling either project-scale growth or client-side secondment patterns common in defence contracting.
Positiv Cohort delivers project and professional services to defence, government, and highly regulated sectors. The firm specializes in cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure, systems and software engineering, embedded systems design, and digital transformation—anchored by leadership with prior experience in client-side security and operations roles. Projects span MBSe toolchain configuration, model-based systems engineering adoption, sea trials, lab testing, and lifecycle management for complex equipment. Revenue model is engagement-driven: outcome-focused delivery under security clearance, often embedded within client programmes.
