Leonardo UK - Operational Analyst Role in GCAP
Leonardo UK requires Operational Analysts for the Global Combat Air System Programme (GCAP), which is delivering Tempest, the next-generation fighter aircraft intended to replace the RAF’s Typhoon.
Leonardo UK is advancing technologies in tactical sensing, data fusion, communications, machine learning, and defensive systems to enable Tempest to operate effectively in highly contested environments.
The role involves developing these technologies through synthetic environments and flight tests, working with the Ministry of Defence and air platform engineering teams to integrate capabilities into the Tempest aircraft.
This position covers advanced technology demonstrations and operational product development, requiring managing multidisciplinary teams to develop, integrate, and test complex mission systems in synthetic and airborne environments.
GCAP is an international project, offering opportunities to travel and collaborate with teams in the UK, Italy, and Japan.
Applicants must be able to achieve at least SC security clearance and may need access to sensitive information such as UK eyes only. For more details, see the UK National Security Vetting site.
The role requires some office-based work at Luton, Bristol, or Lincoln.
Key Responsibilities:
* Collaborate with system and domain experts to define scenarios and models for key technologies.
* Support war gaming, simulation, and analysis to develop military requirements and architectures.
* Model synthetic environments using commercial and bespoke simulation tools.
* Develop engineering specifications, reports, and presentations for clients and partners.
We are a growing team with opportunities across many projects, especially GCAP, one of the UK’s most significant and complex undertakings.
Candidate Requirements:
* Ability and willingness to obtain SC clearance.
* Degree or equivalent experience in Science, Technology, Engineering, or Maths.
* Proven problem-solving skills.
* Ability to visualize and analyze complex systems.
* Strong communication skills, both written and verbal.
* Self-motivated and enthusiastic.
Preferred but not essential experience includes:
* Knowledge of military operating environments, especially aircrew threats.
* Experience with simulation tools (e.g., Simulink) and programming languages (C, C++, Python).
* Experience with Agile methodologies.
* Understanding of sensors like RADAR, EO/IR, ESM, EA.
* Experience supporting military trials or environments.
* Basic systems engineering principles.
