SC clearance required

Our client is a world leader within the defence industry. They are a multinational developer and manufacturer of missiles, established in 2001.

About the Role:

The role is for an experienced Modeller to work on a project developing, building, and testing real hardware for a key missile sub-system. The main responsibility is to produce models of the seeker for various new seeker concepts and architectures, including representations of the seeker hardware, digital processing, and target environment. The successful candidate will be part of a team responsible for model development, auto-code production, seeker performance prediction, and interfacing the seeker model into the missile dynamic reference model.

Responsibilities:

1. Modeling in Matlab and Simulink using model-based design techniques.
2. Developing parts of a complex Seeker model, including modeling the target scenario, seeker hardware, and processor algorithms.
3. Developing and implementing algorithms within the model.
4. Producing and verifying auto-code for software algorithms derived from the model.
5. Conducting seeker performance assessments.
6. Creating simplified representations of the model for integration into the missile model.
7. Optionally updating legacy Seeker models in Statemate.
8. Documenting model changes and creating test vectors.

Due to the sensitive nature of the work, most tasks are performed on-site, with some flexibility depending on the project.

Tools and Skills Required:

• Proficiency with Simulink and Matlab.
• Experience in modeling for auto-coding and assessing algorithm suitability.
• Technical report writing skills.
• Ability to convert algorithms into Simulink models.
• Familiarity with Radar, Control Systems, Digital Signal Processing, and RF experience.
