Applied Scientist - Acoustic Signatures in East Kilbride

Applied Scientist – Acoustic Signatures Hampshire £Competitive + Bonus + Great Benefits
What happens beneath the surface is rarely straightforward. Understanding how underwater systems behave acoustically requires curiosity, scientific rigour and the ability to turn complex data into practical insight.
We're looking for an Applied Scientist to join our Acoustic Signatures team, helping us understand, model and predict the acoustic behaviour of underwater systems and environments.
This is a hands-on, varied role for someone who enjoys tackling complex real-world problems through physics, mathematics, simulation, experimentation and software development. You'll work alongside scientists, engineers and technical specialists to investigate acoustic phenomena, develop analytical and computational models, analyse experimental data and turn scientific insight into practical engineering solutions.
Your work could span everything from fluid dynamics and acoustic propagation to simulation, predictive modelling and algorithm development, supporting the development of advanced subsea technology.
What you'll bring You'll have a degree in Physics, Mathematics, Engineering or a related STEM discipline, strong Python skills and a solid understanding of fluid mechanics. Just as importantly, you'll be naturally curious, analytical and comfortable solving problems where there isn't always an obvious answer.
Experience in areas such as acoustics, sonar, numerical modelling, CFD, scientific data analysis or experimental work would be valuable, as wo...
