Salary £46,049 to £58,225 per annum, pro rata (if applicable) depending on skills and experience. Closing Date Friday 19 June 2026 Reference ENG556326 We are seeking a Research Software Engineer / Computational Modelling Specialist with experience in power electronics to support the implementation of a structured assessment framework developed within the University. The framework integrates multiple project components into a unified system capable of analysing data, exploring uncertainty, and producing transparent, defensible outputs for research and decision-making. The role is primarily analytical and collaborative. The successful candidate will work closely with stakeholders across different project areas to understand how each component operates, what data are available, and what uncertainties or assumptions are associated with them. This may include engagement with partner organisations and short secondments where necessary to understand data sources and operational contexts. A key objective is to translate this understanding into a coherent computational workflow that enables consistent analysis and reporting. Software development is therefore an important enabling activity, but it follows from careful interpretation of the methodology and data. The role requires strong analytical thinking, structured problem-solving, and the ability to work across disciplinary boundaries.
