Algorithm Design Engineer

Navigation Algorithm Design Engineer - Fast-moving, high-impact role

An Algorithm role where you'll be working on cutting-edge tech in the defence arena.

The Navigation Algorithm Design Engineer will join a busy and growing team working across both R&D and live programmes. This isn't just theory; you'll be hands-on developing algorithms that sit right at the core of advanced guided systems, with your work feeding directly into real-world delivery.

You'll be using your Algorithm experience to be involved across the whole lifecycle, from early concept and feasibility studies to supporting upgrades on in-service products. The role offers plenty of variety, visibility, and a chance to work on projects that genuinely push the boundaries.

What you'll need:

• Strong programming background with experience in MATLAB
• Algorithm experience in a complex technical arena
• Ideally PhD qualified, or a technical degree (Aero, Mech, Control, Maths, Physics, etc.) with solid algorithm/navigation experience
• Good knowledge of real-time implementation, testing, and validation
• Some experience with state-of-the-art navigation techniques or algorithm evaluation would be a big plus

This is a genuinely exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys the technical challenge of working with algorithms but wants to see their work have real impact. If you're keen to take your algorithm expertise to the next level,
