Although this is a software engineering task, the candidate is not expected to know how to programme a computer; this will be covered through on-the-job training using Microsoft C#, an object-oriented programming language and possible accelerated programming through the computer’s graphical processing unit (GPU). The job is office-based in Edinburgh although the successful candidate will be issued with a company laptop and may choose a hybrid pattern of home and office working. They will be mentored throughout by a small team of highly experienced engineers with a strong track record of successful projects involving pre-university Year in Industry students – both at the Scottish and National levels. The successful candidate will be the 13th student to work in this small team. Please note that in order to apply for this opportunity you must be eligible for UK Security Clearance. Normally this is to the level of Security Check (typically known as “SC”) for our business which includes having a minimum of 5 years permanent residency in the UK. KEY COMPETENCIES: • Mathematics at Higher or Advanced Higher (or A level) • Physics at Higher or Advanced Higher (or A level) • An interest in coding, either prior experience or a willingness to learn on the job • An awareness of what object-oriented programming is • The ability to work with minimum supervision • The ability to research topics using the internet, textbooks, academic papers, etc • An eagerness to learn about the world of airborne radar • An understanding of what products are made by Leonardo, Edinburgh • Experience in presenting work to audiences • UK citizenship and eligible for UK security clearance (Security Check)

Year-in-Industry placement students will be involved in a variety of tasks in one of the following engineering disciplines – Systems, Software, Hardware, Firmware, Microwave or Antenna Engineering. Placement students have the opportunity to be involved in one or more phases of the engineering lifecycle to create and deliver new and emerging capabilities required by our customers: from the development of architectures and concept designs for the next generation of EW capability, through to live trials of equipment and systems alongside our customers and end-users. Providing support to real projects, placement students will be required to apply knowledge gained while studying in a practical way. Placement students will undertake activities including designing, testing, qualifying and supporting technology across our range of products. The challenging tasks will involve communicating with other team members to gain information before completing objectives and examining outcomes. Working as part of an established engineering community, and supported by a team of experienced engineers, you will responsible for delivering small packages of work to time, cost and quality, working within a team to achieve project targets, collaborate across multiple disciplines and solve problems and communicate with team members to share knowledge. You will be able to gain an understanding of the EW domain to support the development of relevant products and technologies, while completing tasks to a high standard in accordance with appropriate processes and procedures and using the opportunity to develop engineering skills. A supervisor will be available to provide mentoring whilst working as a fully integrated member of the team. Candidates must be able to obtain the level of Security Check (typically known as “SC”) for our business. One of the requirements for this level of clearance is a minimum of 5 years permanent residency in the UK.

A practical “hands on” placement for a student who is planning on studying for an engineering degree and who wants a “get stuck in” placement which will give them the valuable experience that comes from working within a small company. They would like a student who can combine planning with practical tasks. They are looking for a student who has a passion for real “hands on” engineering. The successful student will be working in the manufacturing area, testing, assembling, and getting their overalls dirty! Opportunities will arise to work within other areas. As this is a small company, you will gain lots of experience in a variety of different ways, however, you do need to be prepared to have a flexible attitude towards the work you may do and the hours may occasionally exceed those stated. You will be IT literate, be mathematically inclined and have good verbal and written skills. You will be expected to use your own initiative, enjoy problem solving, offering solutions and be analytical. You will be inquisitive in nature and not be afraid to ask ‘why’ regarding current processes. You will be looking to study Engineering at university. You will have common sense, be logical and reasonably practicable i.e. a ‘hands on’ approach, with a keen attention to detail, and must be able to work on your own and within a team.

The role will allow you to collaborate with development and product teams to understand software features and testing needs, while executing test cases, report issues, and verify bug fixes to ensure a high-quality user experience. Other tasks will include using manual testing techniques to identify software issues, from minor bugs to critical failures and assist in creating and maintaining test documentation, such as test plans and test cases. Additional responsibilities will include contributing to automated testing scripts to improve test efficiency and coverage over time, participating in team meetings to stay aligned with project goals and deadlines and assisting in the Release Management process, contributing to the drafting of customer and stakeholder communications. This exciting role will enable you to gain hands-on experience with testing tools and methodologies, building skills for career growth.
