Senior Algorithm Engineer – Defence & Aerospace
We’re working with a specialist engineering team developing the advanced algorithms behind next-gen autonomous systems, guided weapons, and machine learning-enabled defence tech.
This is a great opportunity to get involved in high-impact projects across the full engineering lifecycle, from early research and concept phases to real-world trials and in-service upgrades. You'll work on areas like guidance and control, navigation, sensor/data fusion, and AI/ML applications.
What you’ll be doing:
* Developing and simulating algorithms using MATLAB and/or Python
* Working on real-time systems involving navigation, tracking, and autonomous control
* Applying estimation techniques (e.g., Kalman filters, SLAM) and sensor fusion
* Supporting integration and testing across complex platforms
* Contributing to the design, verification, and deployment of mission-critical capabilities
What we’re looking for:
* Strong background in algorithm development – ideally with MATLAB or Python
* Degree or PhD in a technical field such as Aerospace, Control Engineering, Maths, Physics, etc.
* Experience in at least one of the following areas:
o Autonomous decision-making or flight control systems
o Navigation and tracking algorithms
o Real-time AI/ML implementation
o Verifying and validating complex systems in safety or mission-critical contexts
What’s on offer:
* Flexible/hybrid working options
* Technical and leadership career paths based on your interests
* Involvement in high-profile defence programmes with real-world impact
* Work with systems like RF/IR seekers, inertial sensors, thrust-vectoring platforms, and more
This role is ideal for someone who wants to apply strong technical skills in a meaningful setting, with plenty of scope for growth and development. Feel free to contact me for more details or to have a chat.
