* You will perform technical analyses and investigations into a full range of issues and problems along with preparing and developing solutions either individually or as a member of a project team
* You will engage with the algorithm users, understand and respond to their needs

Skillset/experience required:
* Experience of algorithm development in a relevant area (such as guidance, control, data fusion, optimisation, navigation)
* Experience of Mathematical Modelling would be beneficial (such as flight dynamics, aerodynamics, sensors, actuation systems)
* A good understanding of simulation environments (e.g. MATLAB and Simulink, or similar) and programming languages (e.g. FORTRAN, Python).
