Come and join our expanding Electronic Warfare Operations Support Group (EWOS) which is made up of 60+ electronic warfare specialists. From all manner of backgrounds, our engineers, scientists, and ex-military personnel combine their experience to help our customers achieve the true operational potential and help keep their people and platforms safe.
We are continuing to grow our team at our head office in St Neots, Cambridgeshire, working on key state-of-the-art research, development, and delivery projects, led by our technical customer, Dstl.
The primary role is to support integration testing of RF systems (including calibration, antenna models, and automated test scripts) in our complex synthetic environments. As a key stage of product delivery, you will focus on system level testing across a variety of simulated scenarios, injecting signals into a System Under Test (SUT) to verify and validate its performance.
The role will require technical autonomy, liaising with military stakeholders, academia, industry and international partners, to assess the performance of receiver hardware, developing improvements, and providing advice.
A secondary focus will be on development and implementation of test scripts to ensure the scenario and SUT performance is captured and understood. These scripts will be deployed to a variety of test equipment (Oscilloscopes, Signal Generators, Spectrum Analysers, and other Special to Type) providing a complete picture to the customer of system performance.
This role will give you a unique opportunity to act as an end user/operator of threat models participating in scenarios, applying doctrine, reacting to events, and learning these systems in detail. This task will give unrivalled access to our customers, as well as international partners, with several trials being run each year utilising these models.
Working with minimal oversight, you will be crucial to ensure the success of these key projects, all whilst being supported by our on-site MASS teams. This is a high visibility role, providing excellent opportunities to talented and enthusiastic candidates.
The invaluable experience you’ll bring, to help us achieve more.
Essential:
* Experience of analogue or digital RF circuitry.
* Operation of test equipment in a laboratory environment (e.g. Oscilloscopes, Signal Generators, Spectrum/Network Analysers).
* Coding experience (e.g. MATLAB, Python, or LabView).
* Experience completing Verification & Validation activities.
* STEM Degree or extensive experience with RF Electronics.
Desirable:
* Background in EW systems and concepts, including radar systems.
* Previous experience working in synthetic testing environments.
* Experience using or creating automation scripts.
* Knowledge of network architecture.
* Knowledge of hardware acceleration technologies.
* Awareness of simulation and rendering engines (e.g. Unreal, Unity etc.)
