Career development support
Our Electronic Warfare Operations Support (EWOS) Group is made up of 60+ electronic warfare specialists. From all manner of backgrounds, our engineers, scientists and ex-military personnel combine their experience to help our customers achieve their true operational potential and ultimately help keep their people and platforms safe.
How youll support us
Working on-site, embedded within our customer team, you will be offering your expertise on Radio Frequency (RF) modelling and simulation, using ground-breaking science to support the UKs front-line defence.
There are two main areas of modelling and analysis which the role will be working on. First, the continued design, development, and operation of software used to verify and validate EW systems across industry partners. The second area of model development and analysis is used to assess novel EW techniques and their effectiveness, with outputs being used to plan future trials.
Whilst the two areas specified above will be the immediate priority work, beyond this there are lots of opportunity to be involved in other research, development, testing, analysis, and validation activities across the air platform/mission survivability modelling and simulation domain.
This unparalleled access through our customer will help accelerate you as a Subject Matter Expert (SME), allowing you to branch into specialisms as your career progresses.
The invaluable experience youll bring, to help us achieve more
Working within the Air countermeasure team you will have access to a variety of projects, covering modelling & simulation in software, synthetic, and real-world environments.
Your understanding of radar processing, operation, and doctrine will help to generate verified models that inform concept development and assessment.
Experience in a related field is valued greatly!
