You will have built an optimization model using MILPs, heuristics, decomposition, or other methods (big focus on linear optimization, not so much on non-linear). In terms of skills you should have strong working experience with optimization solvers (e.g. Gurobi, Cplex, FICO Xpress optimization or other).

You will help shape how devices are assessed and qualified for use in space, drawing on existing data, modelling, and targeted testing where appropriate. - This role suits a physicist or engineer with research experience and strong technical writing skills, who wants to move into applied space work.

You will be trusted to run matters independently, think commercially, and deliver work to a high standard with minimal supervision. Commercial contracts experience is an advantage, but strong corporate capability is essential. The work is varied, often complex, and frequently cross-border.

You will receive a comprehensive induction, training, and awareness sessions to support your effectiveness in the role - A commitment to provide the time (circa 20 days per annum) and energy required is essential.
