Job Title: Engineering Research Specialist at Leonardo

About the Role

Are you passionate about advancing technology and collaborating with leading experts in the field? Leonardo provides an exceptional opportunity to shift from theoretical research to practical engineering applications. We are looking for talented individuals with backgrounds in applied physics, electro-optics, signal processing, artificial intelligence, radar technology, robotics, mathematics, statistics, mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, and servo control engineering.

This role is available on a hybrid basis, allowing flexibility in your work environment. It presents a unique chance to develop your expertise within a premier technology organization, tackling genuine engineering challenges and innovating state-of-the-art solutions that are integral to our offerings.

As an Engineering Research Specialist, you will connect theoretical knowledge with practical execution in real-world systems, particularly focusing on radar technologies. A foundation in scientific research is as crucial as engineering experience.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Conduct applied research to investigate emerging technologies
  • Engage in both high-level and detailed design to enhance processing solutions

We foster a nurturing environment for your technical and professional advancement, presenting stimulating work that encourages your success. Our workplace culture is both dynamic and relaxed, empowering engineers to make informed decisions independently or in collaboration with others. Your expertise and career growth are of utmost importance to us.

About You

The ideal candidate will possess a Ph.D., EngD, or equivalent research experience in Mathematics, Engineering, or Technology. While knowledge of electronic warfare is beneficial, it is not a prerequisite as support will be provided. Preferred qualifications include experience in collaborative projects, a commitment to self-improvement, strong problem-solving abilities, leadership in technical initiatives, familiarity with Systems Engineering principles, and proficiency in programming tools such as Matlab and Simulink.

All candidates must meet eligibility requirements for security clearance. This position offers a competitive salary and a comprehensive benefits package, including flexible working arrangements, healthcare, vacation time, pension contributions, wellness support, lifestyle benefits, training opportunities, and potential bonus incentives.
