Join to apply for the Senior Algorithm Engineer role at MBDA.
The Senior Algorithm Engineer role in GCN (Guidance, Control, and Navigation) is a highly visible, strategic position, working with a highly capable technical team. This role presents a rare opportunity for hands‑on technical involvement, research and strategy steering, without line‑management duties.
Salary: Up to £65,000, depending on experience.
Dynamic (hybrid) working: 5 days per week on‑site due to workload classification.
British Citizen or a Dual UK national with British citizenship. Restrictions and/or limitations relating to nationality and/or rights to work may apply. All successful candidates will need to undergo HMG Basic Personnel Security Standard checks (BPSS) after the offer stage.
As a Senior Algorithm Specialist you will develop expertise from detailed Guidance & Control design to higher architectural levels, demonstrating capability for rigorous system analysis and managing complexity. You will influence the current and future direction for design and testing of sophisticated missile Guidance & Control systems, spanning specialist algorithms, real‑time architecture, and complex equipment such as RF & IR seekers, inertial sensors, actuators, propulsion (turbojets, ramjets, thrust‑vectored rockets) and interfaces to surface and air launch platforms. You will collaborate widely across departmental, directorate and national boundaries and be involved across multiple programmes throughout their lifecycles, from early research and concept stages through full‑scale development and guided flight trials.
MBDA is a leading defence organisation. We partner with governments to work together towards a common goal, defending freedom and supporting our armed forces. We value diversity and inclusion, with employee‑led networks in Gender Equality, Pride, Menopause Matters, Parents and Carers, Armed Forces, Ethnic Diversity, Neurodiversity and more.
