Algorithm Engineer

Algorithm Specialist

The Opportunity

An exciting opportunity for an Algorithm Specialist to contribute to the development of advanced engineering systems, working across the full product lifecycle from initial concept through to in-service support.

You’ll work as part of a specialist engineering team, developing algorithms that support the performance of complex systems. Collaborating with engineers across multiple disciplines, you’ll contribute to innovative projects and help deliver solutions to challenging technical problems.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop algorithms across areas such as guidance, control, navigation, tracking, data fusion and mission planning.
• Support algorithm research, development, testing and validation throughout the product lifecycle.
• Contribute to the development and ongoing support of complex engineering systems.
• Work collaboratively with multidisciplinary teams, including software, simulation, modelling, sensors and systems engineering.
• Apply mathematical and engineering principles to solve complex technical challenges.
• Explore new technologies and approaches to improve system performance.

What We’re Looking For

• A degree or equivalent experience in a mathematically focused discipline, such as Aerospace Engineering, Control Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mathematics, Physics or Computer Science.
• Knowledge of relevant technical domains, such as flight dynamics, aerodynamics, sensors, autonomous systems, robotics or mechatronics.
• Understanding of algorithms in areas such as control systems, navigation, guidance, tracking, data fusion or machine learning.
• Experience using tools and languages such as MATLAB, Simulink, Python or C/C++.
• Experience in algorithm research, product development or technical support.
• A genuine interest in innovative technologies and their practical applications.
• Postdoctoral or relevant industrial experience would be advantageous.
