Job Title: Senior Systems Mathematical Modeller
Location: Cowes, Isle of Wight. We offer a range of hybrid and flexible working arrangements – please speak to your recruiter about the options for this particular role.
Salary: Circa £55,000 dependent on experience

YOUR SKILLS AND EXPERIENCES:

Essential

• A strong mathematical and engineering mind-set with an innovative approach to problem solving that can be applied to resolving complex technical and system level requirements
• Experience of mathematical simulation tools/languages (e.g. Mathworks MATLAB, Simulink, Pearl, Python, MathCAD)
• An understanding of factors that can affect the real world performance of radar systems and how these can impact modelled or simulated performance prediction
• Further education (or equivalent experience) in a relevant STEM discipline

Desirable

• Experience of using a high level design methodology (e.g. SysML, UML) to define modelled solutions for subsequent implementation
• An understanding of signal processing and/or tracking algorithms and techniques employed on contemporary radio, satellite, radar or sonar real-world systems would be an advantage
• Confident presenting both technical and non-technical information in a formal setting

• Conduct mathematical modelling and simulation development devising and evolving algorithmic and design solutions to meet system capability and performance requirements of complex radar systems
• Utilise mathematical modelling and simulation to identify and develop performance enhancements and novel solutions to improve existing radar product capability and evolve future associated technologies
• Develop novel solutions to evolving technical challenges and emerging issues that our customer community are facing
• Support multi-disciplined engineering teams in the realisation, implementation, verification and validation of algorithmic and design solutions for deployable radar systems
• Conduct system performance analysis and design trade-offs of principle system parameters in order to characterise and define system design constraints and limitations in various operational scenarios
• Undertake system performance analysis of integration and post trials data to inform radar systems design solutions, and to generate customer acceptance evidence
• Apply a breadth of knowledge, skills and experience of Systems Engineering (e.g. ISO 15288) to design and develop solutions and resolve engineering issues and problems for a range of products and engineering situations that can realise Future Air Dominance
