Job description

Job Title: Opportunities in Mission Solutions

Location: Portsmouth, England, United Kingdom

Role Type:

QinetiQ is growing! We are on the hunt for talented individuals to join our Mission Solutions teams. If you have experience in the following, whether this may be your first role in mission solutions or highly experienced, then please get in touch.

• Scientists
• Developers

WHERE?

• Malvern
• Lincoln
• Farnborough
• Portsmouth

Location may not be an issue if you have the skills and enthusiasm that we seek. As well as these, we have a new exciting opportunity that would involve deployment to Belgium, and that would also attract additional benefits as well as the chance to operate in close partnership with one of our NATO allies. If you are interested in joining us – now or in the future – we would love to hear from you.

WHAT?

What do our Mission Solutions Scientists, Mathematicians, Engineers and Developers do?

Our Mission Solutions people have a broad understanding of analysis, modelling and simulation concepts and technologies that encompass the entire sensor to effect chain; from the gathering, processing, assimilation and fusion of data, to the exploitation of the resultant information. They also have a good grasp of how a system works and interacts. These tasks may include the design of new mission systems or the enhancement of existing systems, including digital modelling and process development, coding and software development, data fusion, test and evaluation, and operational analysis.

This may include knowledge and skills in some of the following areas:

• Development, production, test and evaluation of mission data.
• Software development with core skills in Matlab, Python, and C++ preferred, but knowledge of other programming languages useful.
• Data fusion in an operational context, using machine learning and neural networking techniques.
• Interoperability techniques including the use of tactical datalinks and secure communications.
• Autonomy and AI in mission-driven applications.
• Development, and test and integration of HMI processes.
• Synthetic environments for assessing performance using data and statistical analysis.
• Development and integration of mission planning systems.
• Practical and theoretical research, considering the use of emerging technologies to provide evidence and ideas for future mission systems.

New to Mission Solutions?

In your first role or have some experience in Mission Solutions? Your talents may be a good match for our team. We recruit from a range of academic and professional backgrounds and if you have qualifications or experience in Mathematics, Science, or Engineering, we would love to speak with you. You will be offered the opportunities to develop your depth and breadth of expertise and experience and set you on the path for advancement.

Opportunities for mid-career Mission Solutions Scientists, Mathematicians, Engineers and Developers

If you are a mid-career professional working in an associated industry, you will be applying your expertise right from day one. Whatever your specialism or background, you can expect ongoing development to help you excel and advance. This includes expert training and mentoring, with increased emphasis on self-development and on-the-job training.

Opportunities for highly experienced Scientists, Mathematicians, Engineers and Developers

As a senior Mission Solutions Scientist, Mathematician, Engineer or Developer, you will already be a respected member of the community and can expect further specialist development (which may include conference attendance and paper presentation, for example), and targeted mentoring to develop specific technical skills. If you have senior management potential, we’ll spot and nurture it. However, to progress to more senior roles, you’ll need to be an active member of an appropriate professional body.

Our Fellowship scheme recognises and develops professionals with high-level, specialist technical expertise.

WHY?

You will be joining a diverse, inclusive employer that is proud to provide a collaborative, open working environment. With our Adaptive approach, you will enjoy the work-life balance that suits you best, thanks to remote, hybrid and flexible working practices.

• QinetiQ offers varied, rewarding and interesting careers across a range of locations in the UK and overseas.
• In many of our roles, we work in teams that are embedded with our partners in the RAF, RN and Army.
• We explore multiple domains of application - Air, Space, Land, Maritime, ISTAR, Weapons and Cyber Systems Engineering throughout the life cycle - from concept through development and operation to disposal.
• We have practitioners at all levels up to and including internationally recognised individuals. Our blended approach to learning means you will have access to formal training, mentoring, assisted self-development, and on the job training.
• Excel, and your potential will be spotted. Our continuing professional development covers all career stages and levels of seniority.
• With our Adaptive approach, you can work the way you want – flexibly, on-site, remotely or via hybrid working.

Why we are different
