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
