Copello are supporting a leading Defence client in their search for an ambitious engineer with a growth mind set to join their Hardware team.
As a Simulation Systems Engineer you will be responsible for maintaining the simulations, by ensuring simulators and control systems are fit for purpose. You will be reactive and proactive, providing engineering skills to maintain multiple axis hydraulic motion simulators and antenna positioning systems.
There will be planned maintenance activities and corrective maintenance in response to unforeseen issues, where flexibility will be required. This is a hands on role where physical activity is inherent. You will be able to adapt to new engineering situations and be comfortable in abstracting detail in order to understand the facility simulation systems and equipment.
What we're looking for from you:
Broad engineering experience with deeper experience in some of the following skill areas:
* Understanding of Hydraulic systems
