Summary: The Systems Performance Modelling Engineer will develop models for seeker RF Radar, encompassing hardware, digital processing, and target environments. Responsibilities include using Matlab and Simulink for model-based design, producing auto-code, and assessing seeker performance. The role requires collaboration within a fast-paced team and adherence to security clearance protocols. This position is primarily on-site due to the sensitive nature of the work, with some flexibility based on project needs.
Key Responsibilities:
- Modelling in Matlab and Simulink using model-based design techniques
- Producing parts of a complex Seeker model including modelling the target scenario, seeker hardware and processor algorithms
- Develop and implement algorithms within the model
- Producing and verifying auto-code for the software algorithms from the model
- Carrying out seeker performance assessment
- Producing a simpler representation of the model for use in the missile model
- Upgrading legacy Seeker models to newer MATLAB/Simulink Vectors
- Documenting the model changes and creating test vectors
Key Skills:
- Simulink
- Matlab
- Modelling for auto-coding
- Assessing suitability of algorithms in the model
- Aptitude for converting an algorithm into a Simulink model (desirable)
- Familiarity with Radar and Control Systems (desirable)
- Familiarity with Digital Signal Processing (desirable)
- RF experience (desirable)
- Experience in C (not essential)
- Technical report writing
- Model delivery experience
- Ability to work as part of a fast paced team
