Software Engineer - Simulation

Responsibilities

• Support Defence and Security domains at Boeing locations and Customer sites across the UK, including Autonomous Systems, Training and Simulation, Cyber, Space, Intelligence and Security.
• Support the design, architecture, and development of simulation models, simulation visualizations, virtual environments/platforms and frameworks to enhance test performance, safety, and durability of software and hardware systems throughout the entire product lifecycle.
• Support partnership with stakeholders to review and identify simulation requirements and dynamics of the systems being simulated.
• Support designing, modeling, simulation, testing, and analysis to assess and optimize overall system performance and capabilities.

Requirements

• Bachelor of Science degree or higher from an accredited course of study in engineering, engineering technology (includes manufacturing engineering technology), chemistry, physics, mathematics, data science, or computer science.
• Ability to obtain security clearance.
• Proficiency in C++, Lua Scripting or one of the similar programming languages.
• Familiarity with Physics based Modelling and Simulation system Engineering principals.
• Familiarity with version control systems (e.g., Git, BitBucket etc.).
• Knowledge of Agile development methodologies.
• Familiarity with DevOps, Automation and CICD concepts.
• Understanding of testing frameworks and unit testing practices.
• Experience working as a Software Simulation Engineer or a similar role.
• Experience across Software Development Lifecycle and Software standards such as ISO9001.
• Understanding of the distributed interoperability simulation protocols used within defence collective training (e.g., DIS and HLA).
• Understanding and experience of the COTS simulation and training environment development, execution, verification, validation and deployments.
• Strong understanding of object-oriented programming (OOP) and software design principles.
