About the role
The Electronic Warfare team is a systems-focused engineering group delivering software-defined, mass-scalable RF solutions for autonomous systems. You will design high-performance software to ensure fleet command, control, and situational awareness against near-peer threats in contested environments. This role involves owning the stack from initial design and mathematical modelling to rigorous bench testing and field trials.
Responsibilities
- Design high-performance C++ software for real-time signal processing, waveform manipulation, and mission-critical EW functions.
- Develop anti-jamming techniques, frequency hopping (FHSS), and adaptive filtering to bypass active electronic countermeasures.
- Design algorithms for RF sensing, signal detection, and situational awareness to identify and neutralise threats in dynamic environments.
- Collaborate with hardware and systems teams to tune RF front-ends, ensuring software is perfectly calibrated to physical constraints.
- Own the stack from initial design and mathematical modelling to rigorous bench testing and field trials.
