Systems Performance Modelling Engineer

MERITUS are recruiting for 3 Systems Performance Modelling Engineers to join our client in either Stevenage or Bristol on an initial 12 month contract to work on RF Radar projects.

SYSTEMS PERFORMANCE MODELLING ENGINEER - INSIDE IR35 - 75 PER HOUR - 12 MONTHS - STEVENAGE OR BRISTOL - SC CLEARED (OR WILLING TO UNDERGO) - VIEW TO LONG TERM COMMITTMENT - MINIMUM 4 DAYS PER WEEK ONSITE

We are looking for a modeller to produce models of the redacted RF Radar. The model includes the redacted hardware, digital processing and target environment. The modelling team is responsible for developing the model, producing auto-code, generating redacted performance predictions and interfacing the seeker model into the missile dynamic reference model.

Responsibilities (to include):

• 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
• Optionally updating the legacy Seeker model in Statemate
• Documenting the model changes and creating test vectors

Due to the sensitive nature of the work it is predominantly done onsite but there is some flexibility depending on project.

Skillset / experience required:

Tools:

• Simulink
• Matlab

Skills:

• 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)
• Technical report writing
• Model delivery experience
• Ability to work as part of a fast paced team
