Job Title: Thermal Engineer

Salary: Competitive depending on experience

Location: Stevenage (we may be able to offer a relocation package for this role)

Dynamic (hybrid) working: typically, 2 to 3 days per week on-site, due to workload classification

Security Clearance: British Citizen or a Dual UK national with British citizenship.

Restrictions and/or limitations relating to nationality and/or rights to work may apply. As a minimum and after offer stage, all successful candidates will need to undergo HMG Basic Personnel Security Standard checks (BPSS), which are managed by the MBDA Personnel Security Team.

We are also key to the development of future technology in such fields as hypersonic flight, low observability, etc.

Typical activities will range from research & development through to delivery of the product using low and high fidelity thermal modelling, physical testing and liaison with suppliers, customers and other MBDA project team members.

We are a highly motivated, supportive team with a strong desire to improve our effectiveness through training, method & tools development and interaction with the wider business in the UK and abroad.

In our Stevenage office, you will find a supportive environment where people feel valued and are enabled to achieve their full potential. Whilst onsite you will have access to high performance computing systems, subsidised catering, gym facilities and much more. Our Dynamic Working Agreements also allow high levels of flexibility and a balance of office and remote working, both at home and in other MBDA UK offices such as Bristol or Bolton.
