Candidate will be joining the Modelling & Simulation (M&S) discipline within the customer team, which supports development on the platforms across the entire product lifecycle – from concept analysis through to Test & Evaluation (T&E) and Training. As a Simulator Engineer, the candidates will be part of the Simulation department within the T&E Evaluation organisation, working closely with Project X to explore future cockpit and avionics designs.
The team you will be joining develops the Project Cockpit simulator and its supporting utilities - prototyping new avionic and cockpit designs in conjunction with engineers from Project X. The role will provide opportunities ranging from advanced software development to trial preparation, execution, and analysis. Some team members specialise, whilst others enjoy the variety and broad experience on offer within the Simulation department.
Job Responsibilities: As a Simulator Engineer, the core duties and responsibilities include:
Development of software used to run the Project X Active Cockpit simulator. Ownership of requirements, design and implementation, system integration and test, within schedule and estimates. Adherence to systems engineering practices. Reporting on progress and providing feedback to team members and leadership. Production of appropriate technical documentation. Design of technical solutions, integrating COTS hardware and software. Planning and estimating development activities. Management of technical risk. Working with customers to support delivered systems and resolve issues. Technical management of tasks. Line management and mentoring of team members. Development/refinement of development processes. Developing system architectures to meet emerging IT & IT Security requirements. Developing new work opportunities for the department and wider Test & Evaluation.
Essential skills/qualifications: Degree or equivalent in Engineering, Maths, or Physics. Strong programming knowledge and experience in C/C++ using Visual Studio. Project X domain knowledge, particularly cockpit Human Machine Interface (HMI). Experience of configuration control tools, particularly Mercurial. Ability to use your own initiative and act independently as required – requirements and tasks are often fluid in nature, and it is essential that you are comfortable and able to thrive in this type of environment. Pro-active with the ability to think creatively. Security Clearance Required.
Desirable skills/qualifications: Experience in Task Leading duties, including QMS documentation. Mentoring. Knowledge and experience of Linux. Avionics/Mission systems domain knowledge. Use of Jira to manage software tasks. Knowledge of Simulation Interoperability (HLA/DIS/Link16) and associated standards. Excellent written and verbal communication skills. Confidence in presenting information to a wide variety of stakeholders. General military aircraft domain knowledge and interest.
Qualifications: HND/HNC, degree (BSc/BEng/MSc/MEng) in a relevant STEM-based subject or equivalent experience. Any nationality and it is mandatory to clear the background checks – BPSS.
