- Supporting concept studies, design development and trade‑off analysis
- Carrying out verification and validation activities to ensure model accuracy and integrity
- Integrating externally developed model components into larger simulation environments
- Investigating technical challenges and developing robust engineering solutions
- Working closely with stakeholders to understand requirements and ensure models remain fit for purpose
- Producing high‑quality technical documentation and maintaining design records in line with quality standards
What we are looking for
- Experience in one or more of the following: MATLAB & Simulink, or similar simulation environments
- Programming in C/C++, FORTRAN or similar engineering languages
- Mathematical modelling of complex dynamic systems
- Systems engineering principles and engineering lifecycle processes
- Verification and validation of simulation models
- Configuration and change management tools would be advantageous
If you are looking to apply your simulation and modelling expertise to technically challenging projects in a collaborative and highly respected engineering environment, we would love to hear from you.
Benefits
