Job Description
Control & Monitoring System Software Design Engineer Derby/Solihull/Bristol (Hybrid) Full Time Why join Rolls-Royce? At Rolls-Royce we are proud to be a business that has truly helped to shape the modern world and are committed to always being a force for progress; powering, protecting and connecting people everywhere. By joining Rolls-Royce, you'll have the opportunity to work on world-class solutions, supported by a culture that believes individuality is our greatest strength, and all perspectives, experiences and backgrounds help us innovate and enable our high-performance culture. An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Controls Systems Engineer to join the business as part of the Software Systems Capability function. As a Control System Design Engineer within the Mission Critical and Health Monitoring team, you will work within a capability to develop solutions to deliver and maintain features that enhance the product offering. You will develop software within a framework of systems utilising hand-code and model-based development techniques as appropriate and required. A variety of coding languages and software development knowledge is required, hence a flexible mindset focussed on integration and problem solving is necessary. You will be operating as part of a development team, peer reviewing and status accounting work to deliver periodic releases. This role requires an element of customer facing interaction, so clear communication and presentation skills are necessary to coordinate and develop cross-company interfaces. The Controls Systems Engineer shall specify, design and validate complex sub-systems, including high-level requirements for the software and / or hardware system components, this will include creation of mathematical models and simulations of control and actuation systems.
What you will be doing
In this role, you will be responsible for the on-time delivery and quality of the controls sub-system and the artefacts associated with the design, verification and validation of the system. This shall be achieved through decomposition of designs and development of tests, analysis to ensure that the system implementation satisfies the validated requirements. Other accountabilities include: Review and agree high level control and instrumentation systems requirements including their testability. Analyse and translate high level requirements into a validated design for the control and instrumentation system. Capture applicable design constraints (must meet conditions) and quality attributes (may be traded) that apply to the control and instrumentation system. Design and implement the control and instrumentation system to meet the high-level requirements and design constraints/standards. Allocate control and instrumentation system requirements to test vehicles defined in the verification plan. Analyse the control and instrumentation system for functional behaviour, which may include modelling and simulation to demonstrate that the design meets the high-level requirements. Develops and reviews control system tests that will provide evidence to demonstrate that the control system requirements have been satisfied. Analyse verification test results against control and instrumentation system requirements. Provide targeted testing of control and instrumentation system functionality to support problem investigation and problem closures and customer issues. Liaise with other disciplines to understand functional performance capabilities of components of the system to facilitate effective component design. May be required to participate in and support capacity planning and the development of long-term strategic goals for the department, in conjunction with the department managers. May be required to develop, implement, document, and maintain policies, procedures, associated guidelines, tools and training as required. Develop the knowledge required to provide advice to project teams and be able to create,
