Modelling and Simulation Engineer (Training provided) Bristol, England
Job description
Stirling Dynamics is recruiting trainee Modelling, Simulation and Control Engineers to the Simulation, Dynamics and Control team.
Due to expanding project needs, Stirling Dynamics are looking for multiple talented engineers who are looking for new opportunities to develop and grow their skills towards a career in Modelling, Simulation and Control.
The successful engineers will be part of the Modelling, Simulation and Control capability group and will work within a team responsible for the development of complex control algorithms and vehicle and system plant models for next generation marine and aerospace applications. The role offers a unique opportunity to receive targeted training across all aspects of model based design, from mathematical modelling, controller design and tuning, model build and test.
As a Modelling, Simulation and Control engineer you will work on the development of leading edge algorithms and processes, and with the latest tool-sets to support the delivery and integration of the models as part of a wider integrated model set.
Modelling, simulation and control has always been at the core of Stirling Dynamics' capabilities, and we have been at the forefront of developing modelling techniques and model based design activities for over 30 years. Within this role you will have the opportunity to learn from and share with other like minded engineers within Marine and across our Aerospace, eVTOL and cockpit control business areas.
The successful candidate must have a keen interest in modelling and control. The ideal candidate would be a recent graduate or someone who has some years of engineering experience, but would like to change career path towards modelling and control. They will have strong interpersonal skills and the ability to work and collaborate within a team of engineers.
This role will be predominantly based in our Bristol office with occasional travel to our clients’ sites as required. As part of our commitment to flexibility, employees can work part of the week from home.
