The Algorithm, Simulation & Performance department's mission is to define and design algorithmic solutions that guarantee the performance of weapon systems required by customers. To achieve this, system simulations are used to develop these algorithms and perform performance evaluations. These simulations also allow for the preparation and replay of field tests. They therefore intervene throughout the entire life cycle of weapon systems, from the bidding phase to operational maintenance.
Within a team, on a complex project related to defense systems, your missions will be as follows:
- Define the requirements and architecture of the reference system simulation
- Identify/develop this simulation
- Develop the key operational algorithms of the solutions
- Industrialize (test/verify/develop) these algorithms
- Evaluate/verify system performance (equipment, system, subsystem)
- Support the preparation and execution activities of real-world tests
- Calibrate reference simulations using real-world data
Your profile: With solid experience in designing algorithmic solutions, you have good knowledge of numerical methods, signal processing, or automatic control. You are capable of proposing relevant modeling to address physical simulation problems. You master the development of complex systems (defense, aeronautics) and know how to find innovative or state-of-the-art solutions based on needs. You have developed your skills in Matlab / Simulink and have advanced knowledge of software engineering principles (software configuration management, continuous integration). You have a good level of English.
Knowledge of software engineering languages, technologies, and tools desired: Matlab/Simulink, C/C++, ADA, GIT, Gitlab, JIRA, Doors, Polarion, continuous integration, Jenkins, Sonarcube, Polyspace...
Ideally, you are familiar with specific issues in the defense sector: radar and optronic sensors, communication systems, L16 tactical data link, command and control systems, defense networks, missile fire control, ...
Sensitive to "Cost-Quality-Deadline" and the Design to Cost approach, you are comfortable with oral and written communication. You enjoy teamwork (co-engineering) as well as autonomy. You possess an ability to adapt, to propose (continuous improvement), and to act in a constrained environment.
