Take a leading role in modelling and simulation with a Principal Modelling and Simulation Engineer position that blends hands:on technical delivery with visible technical leadership. At this company, modelling and simulation sits at the heart of complex engineering work, from aircraft systems and flight control laws through to submarine autopilots and next:generation platforms. You will get autonomy to shape approaches, define verification strategies, and help develop the next generation of engineers, all within a smaller, highly capable team where your input genuinely moves projects forward.
Due to Security clearance you must be a UK national for this role.
What You Will Do as Principal Modelling and Simulation Engineer:
- Lead the development of system and vehicle:level models, including plant and control algorithms.
- Define modelling approaches, requirements, and verification strategies to drive confidence in outputs.
- Own delivery of technical activities or work packages end:to:end, from planning through to presentation.
- Present results and technical outputs clearly to internal and external stakeholders.
- Support and mentor junior engineers, helping bring structure and clarity to complex problems.
- Contribute to planning, task definition, and delivery prioritisation to keep momentum and deadlines on track.
What You Will Bring as Principal Modelling and Simulation Engineer:
- Strong experience with Matlab and Simulink:based modelling and simulation, with the ability to model complex dynamic systems
- Understanding of control systems, system performance modelling, and vehicle dynamics, alongside multi:domain simulation exposure
- Demonstrable experience with advanced control techniques such as Kalman filtering and state estimation
- Exposure to real:time modelling or code generation using Matlab, including auto coding and C/C++ where relevant
This Principal Modelling and Simulation Engineer role directly supports a mission focused on operational excellence, future:proofing and delivering high:quality engineering solutions across demanding sectors.
