Bristol | £45,000 – £72,500 | Hybrid
If you are a serious Modelling & Simulation Engineer who actually wants to work on meaningful, complex systems, not just tweak models in the corner, then this is worth your attention.
Our client is growing in a big way. They have new projects landing, capability expanding, and a clear need for engineers who can think, challenge, and deliver, not just follow process.
This isn’t theory, it is real engineering.
You will be working across high-impact programmes spanning marine, aerospace, defence, and emerging technology. From flight control systems, vehicle dynamics to submarine autopilots, you will be using and designing real-time models. The kind of work that sharpens your edge, quickly.
What you’ll actually be doing:
- Building and validating models at system and vehicle level
- Defining control algorithms and performance requirements
- Getting hands‑on with MATLAB / Simulink
- Collaborating with smart engineers who know their craft
- Presenting your work to clients who expect clarity, not waffle
What you’ll bring:
- Degree qualified in a related discipline preferably Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering or Mathematics
- Strong grounding in modelling, simulation, and systems thinking
- Experience in Hydro-actuated systems, Electro‑mechanical actuated systems, Multi‑body simulation, and vehicle dynamics
- Confidence with tools like MATLAB / Simulink and version control
- The ability to think critically, not just execute tasks
And let’s be clear…
This will suit someone who’s either:
- Ready to step up into a more senior, broader role
OR - Already operating at Principal level and wants more impact, not more meetings
The Environment
Supportive | technical | genuinely collaborative | hybrid working
No fluff, no gimmicks; just proper engineering work, with people who take pride in doing it well.
You will need to be a British citizen, and eligible for UK security clearance.
