Edinburgh, Edinburgh, United Kingdom Leonardo Full time

Job Description:

At Leonardo, we are seeking highly motivated individuals to fill our industrial placement roles. As a Systems Engineer, you will work on real-time projects alongside leading scientists and engineers, contributing to the design and development of complex systems.

Our Systems Engineers are involved in all aspects of design and development, from initial product design through to in-service support. They look at the big picture, determining how the system needs to operate and collaborating to produce the required overall operational behaviors.

As a Summer Placement Systems Engineer, you will work on real engineering problems within either the Radar or the Advanced Targeting business area. You will have the opportunity to be involved in supporting a wide range of tasks across multiple projects/products, such as:

  • The radar for the Typhoon fighter jet
  • The radar for the SAAB Gripen fighter
  • Our family of Surveillance AESA (Active Electronically Scanned Array) radars
  • An IRCM (Infra-Red Counter Measures) system
  • Our laser target designator or laser ranging systems

Core activities within Systems Engineering include:

  • Requirements capture, design documentation, verification and validation
  • Algorithm design and test
  • Performance modelling; building physics-based models to test our designs through computer simulation
  • Data analysis; end-to-end systems analysis using synthetic and 'real world' data
  • Applied research; from product improvements to blue-sky thinking

You will work with an experienced engineer who will provide day-to-day guidance and on-the-job training. You will be introduced to systems engineering processes, methods, technology and tools, with particular emphasis placed on learning practical skills that may not be easily gained or experienced in the academic environment of a university.

All of our Industrial Placement roles require a minimum of a predicted 2:1 grade in a relevant degree discipline. For technical roles, please note that our preferred degree disciplines include Physics, Mathematics, Engineering, or other STEM subject degrees.

In addition to this, we would be interested in hearing from you if you have experience in:

  • Coding/programming
  • Relevant project work and/or placements in industry
  • Solving problems as part of a team
  • Applying your science and technology knowledge to solve a real-world problem
