Algorithm / Software Engineer (MATLAB / ADA)

Location: Bristol (site based)

Rate: PAYE: £49.70/hour PAYE (£56.93/hour incl. holiday) or £65/hour Umbrella

We seek an engineer with recent high-integrity or safety-critical industry experience (defence, aerospace, or similar), or eligible for UK security clearance.

Overview

An opportunity is available for an experienced Algorithm / Software Engineer to support the migration of a large, complex legacy algorithm codebase from ADA into MATLAB within a regulated engineering environment. The role sits within a multi-disciplinary team and involves close collaboration with algorithm engineers, technical specialists, and downstream software teams.

This position would particularly suit candidates with a defence or aerospace background who are familiar with high-assurance software development and verification practices.

Key Responsibilities

  • Define, distribute, and review technical activities within the wider team to support efficient delivery within project timelines
  • Develop test harnesses and implement robust testing strategies to ensure functional equivalence between legacy ADA code and MATLAB implementations
  • Develop MATLAB algorithms in line with defined Codes of Practice to ensure compatibility with auto-coding toolchains
  • Identify and resolve issues related to auto-coding compatibility, reframing algorithms where necessary
  • Work closely with downstream software teams to enable effective transfer and integration of MATLAB algorithm artefacts
  • Support the resolution of technical queries and non-compliances
  • Contribute to verification activities, including requirements verification and evidence review

Essential Skills & Experience

  • Experience writing, delivering, and testing algorithm-related software
  • Strong experience developing software and algorithms using MathWorks toolsets (MATLAB)
