We currently have an exciting opportunity for talented Engineers / Physicists / Mathematicians with a keen interest in modelling dynamic complex systems to build their career as a Simulation & Modelling Engineer with a world class technical engineering company based in Bristol.

The opportunity:

The Principal Simulation & Modelling Engineer will focus on the development, integration, and validation of dynamic numerical models, primarily using MATLAB and Simulink. Working with all elements of a system right down to wider system component level, the Principal Simulation & Modelling Engineer will provide simulations for products to the customers: from concepting to assessment and through life support. The Principal Simulation & Modelling Engineer will engage with external teams and partners to integrate external models (such as FMUs, C++ libraries, or third-party software) into our environments, as well as working closely with system designers, control engineers, and software developers to support the full development lifecycle.

Automation is a key part of our testing process, and we are hands on in putting continuous integration and verification processes in place, in conjunction with performing detailed model validation against experimental or field trial data. Ensuring quality standards are upheld is also important in our work, so all Simulation & Modelling Engineers participate in this through model reviews, contributing to documentation, and robust configuration management of models. As a technical leader in the team, this role extends to collaboration with cross-functional teams as representative of the modelling team, and presenting technical solutions for system integration and performance assessment activities.

Benefits of working here:

* State of the art technology & innovation

* External learning and development encouraged.

* Light and airy university type campus.

* Friendly environment!

* Restaurant, On site Medical Centre, Parking / Easy Access to train station, Coffee Shops & Onsite Shop, Sports & Social Club and More

Skills and qualifications required from the following:

* A Degree or Masters in an Engineering, Mathematics or Science related subject

* Proven, hands-on experience with MATLAB and Simulink, or other programming languages for system modelling and simulation.

* Knowledge of coding standards and peer review of coding changes

* Strong understanding of dynamic systems and numerical modelling.

* Familiarity with model-based design methodologies, the software development cycle, and systems engineering processes.

* Knowledge of scripting and automation (MATLAB scripts, Gitlab, Jenkins, or similar).

* Excellent problem-solving, analytical, and communication skills.

* Experience integrating external models or code (e.g., C/C++, FMUs, S-Functions, or co-simulation frameworks) into Simulink.

* Experience with version control tools (e.g., Git, EWM).

* Hands-on experience of automated C/C++ code generation from Simulink

* Experience working with Agile/Scrum/Kanban

* Experience working with external and international partners
