## Description

## Job Overview

As a Simulation Engineer at Helsing, you will build and maintain modelling and simulation environments to understand how platforms behave aerodynamically, structurally, and in full engagements, before they are built.

## Responsibilities

- Build and maintain high-fidelity simulation environments, including 6-DOF vehicle dynamics, aerodynamics, structural, and engagement-level models.

- Develop Monte Carlo and sensitivity analysis capabilities to explore performance across various conditions.

- Collaborate with GNC, mechanical, and systems engineers to define modelling requirements and validate models against real test and flight data.

- Support design trade studies and build tooling to make simulation faster and more accessible.

- Communicate simulation results and limitations clearly to engineers and decision-makers.

## Requirements

- Experience building and maintaining simulation environments for physical systems in aerospace, automotive, robotics, or similar domains.

- Strong understanding of underlying physics, such as flight dynamics, aerodynamics, structures, or controls.

- Proficiency in relevant programming/scientific computing environments like Python, MATLAB/Simulink, or C++.

- Experience validating simulation output against real test or field data.

- Comfortable working with uncertainty, Monte Carlo methods, and sensitivity analysis.

## Nice to Have

- Experience with 6-DOF flight/missile simulation or engagement-level/wargaming simulation.

- Familiarity with CFD, FEA, or other high-fidelity physics-based modelling tools.

- Knowledge of real-time or hardware-in-the-loop (HITL) simulation environments.

- Experience building simulation tooling or infrastructure used by wider engineering teams.

## Benefits

- Competitive salary and VSOP options

- Relocation support: up to €2,500 and 4 weeks temporary accommodation

- Learning: €500/£450 yearly allowance

- Health & wellness: gym membership and mental health support (Nilo.health)

- Social: regular company events and monthly social allowances

- Enhanced parental leave: 22 weeks fully paid for primary caregivers & 6 weeks for secondary caregivers

- Family support: 5 days of paid family emergency leave, 100% remote work option during pregnancy and phased return to work
