You will have the opportunity to work within a state-of-the-art test and evaluation facility, unique within the UK. The HWIL testing utilises; real missile hardware, a missile performance model, flight motion tables [to pitch/roll/yaw the hardware] and RF / IR target generation systems [to represent target(s)]. This dynamic testing is controlled by a HWIL developed simulation which runs real-time. This test and evaluation setup allows HWIL to conduct missile testing across many MBDA products in as close to real world scenarios as possible, exercising missile functionalities such as; in-flight performance, target detection, acquisition and homing. Your job role may vary with the lifecycle of the missile products you are supporting. Your overall aim will be to; integrate, understand and maintain highly complex simulations, and utilise these to perform missile testing and data analysis
• all in support of missile product development. Your main responsibilities will be to:
• Understand functionality of the missile sub-systems involved in dynamic HWIL testing,
• Understand interactions between the missile sub-systems and bespoke test equipment,
• Interact with relevant subject matter experts across MBDA missile product teams,
• Develop real time software simulations utilising performance models,
• Conduct hands-on testing with real missile hardware and software,
• Analyse missile telemetry data to understand performance and produce technical reports.

from you: We have found that the best HWIL engineers have wide engineering experience, with knowledge in some (not necessarily all) of the areas listed below:

• System integration & interface debugging,
• Structured approach to problem solving,
• Real time software / simulation design,
