VEHICLE SIMULATION ENGINEERS
We are seeking graduate and experienced engineers for Simulink modelling of train and automotive vehicles to deliver simulators globally for driver training.
About the Company
Oktal Sydac is the world leading developer of simulators for the global rail and transportation sectors, with a large and growing pipeline of projects to deliver. These simulators are used for driver training simulation as well as an aid engineering design. We have a diverse workforce delivering projects across the UK, USA, Asia, Europe, and Australia. These high-fidelity immersive simulators are a detailed replication of the real system, with powerful training scenarios complemented by rich and realistic virtual worlds.
Responsibilities
•Be involved in the whole software lifecycle, from design to delivery
•Analyse customer requirements, OEM manufacture schematics, OEM manufacture design documentation and other inputs to design vehicle models
•Implement and test these models in Simulink and within the overall simulator environment
•Provide modelling that will primarily fall into two areas: physical systems such as electrical systems, pneumatics, traction, and vehicle dynamics; and computer systems such as autonomous control logic to simulate on-board vehicle computers
•Look for opportunities to re-use or develop common modelling components that can be used between projects
Desired Skills, Qualifications, and Traits
•Curiosity and willingness to learn how things work will help you succeed in this role
•Tertiary degree qualification in engineering such as mechanical engineering, software engineering, computer science, mechatronics engineering, mathematics, physics, or a related discipline
•Experience in Simulink and MATLAB will be highly regarded, but Simulink training will be provided during employee on-boarding
•Experience in reading electrical and pneumatic schematics will be beneficial, but you will be supported by a team of modellers to develop these skills as needed
•Interest in coding or scripting will be beneficial as you work with software developers and virtual world developers in a range of areas and disciplines
Benefits
•Training in MATLAB and Simulink will be provided during your induction
•Your continued exposure to new and diverse customer equipment as well as in-house technologies will ensure your skills and knowledge will continue to grow. We use a range of technologies across the various teams at Oktal Sydac including Java, C++, ant scripting, SVN, Oracle Database, SQL, MongoDB, Angular, and more
•Work in a high-performing, innovative and friendly team
To apply please forward your curriculum vitae and a cover letter briefly stating why you are interested in the role and what you could bring to the team to denise.stokes@sydac.com
