Who are Roke

Roke is a leading UK innovator in science and engineering. For over 60 years we’ve been improving the world through innovation by combining the physical and digital in new ways. Our journey began in defence but as the decades have rolled on, we're also inventing and engineering technically advanced data and communication systems in national security and for Fortune 500 companies. From innovations in computer vision powering the autonomous landing of a drone at sea, to an artificial intelligence inspection system that drastically reduces aircraft turnaround times by autonomously inspecting jet turbines. Right through to the technology behind Hawk-Eye tracking the trajectory of balls in sport. It all began at Roke. Roke people are curious and unashamedly technical. That’s why we’ve fostered an environment where some of the world’s finest minds have the freedom, support and trust to succeed. Our team of 600 engineers are uniquely placed to use their deep knowledge of sensors, communications, cyber and AI to combine and apply these technologies to keep people safe whilst unlocking value. Working closely with our customers we solve real world technical challenges and help deliver critical missions. As a trusted partner, we welcome any problem confident that our consulting, research, innovation and product development will help them revolutionise and improve their world. We’re proud to be part of the Chemring Group plc, providing us with complimentary expertise, corporate strength and access to international markets for our world-leading intellectual property. Mission: At Roke we’re innovators. Our people relish solving complex problems, and they do it by bringing the physical and digital together to improve the world through innovation. We believe the convergence of the two represents the single biggest opportunity of our time and we’re dedicated to making it happen whilst protecting our customers, their assets, and society at large. Anywhere high-value digital assets are being connected, we have the capability and desire to help.
