Exciting opportunity for a Simulation Engineer, in our Hardware-in-the-Loop Team
Salary: up to £50k (DOE)
Hybrid working pattern: 80% on site, working with world class equipment
We are looking for ambitious engineers with a growth mind-set to join our team. If you're the right person for us, you will seek a supportive environment, surrounded by passionate experts while being a part of collaborative and driven team.
The Hardware-in-the-Loop (HWIL) team conduct the most complete test of missiles other than a firing and are MBDA's Missile test track. We design complex, real-time simulations that surround real missile hardware to allow us to 'fire missiles indoors'.
As a HWIL Simulation Engineer you will be responsible for building the simulation, conducting 'indoor firings' and analysing the missile's performance in all scenarios.
You will be able to adapt to new engineering situations and be comfortable in abstracting detail in order to understand the simulation and missile's behaviour.

Broad engineering experience with deeper experience in some of the following skill areas:
- Software design
- Software design for real-time applications
- Familiarity with Linux operating system
- Familiarity with C/C
- Use of microcontrollers (e.g. Raspberry Pi)
- System performance analysis
- Interface debugging and system integration
Familiarity with Object Orientated approaches would be beneficial
