Senior Analytical Design Engineer
Location: Horsham
Who We Are: We are a leader in the field of clean energy technology, enabling the world's most progressive companies to decarbonize at scale and pace. Our technology includes advanced power generation and alternative energy solutions. Our partnerships with global companies have paved the way for developing clean energy systems that revolutionize power generation, transportation, industry, and everyday living.
Purpose of the role
This role sits within the department of Modelling and Digitalisation, consisting of highly skilled and dedicated modelling and simulation engineers, data scientists, and data engineers. ​The department does advanced multi-domain computational modelling, specialist data analysis, and creates bespoke data products and cloud data platform solutions to support all core areas of the business, with a focus on accelerating the company’s product and technology development. The scope of the modelling work for this role is versatile, ranging from creating reduced order physics-based models to using commercial multi-physics modelling tools to solve challenging problems for a wide variety of internal and customer facing projects. Whilst the role focuses primarily on structural and finite-element analysis (FEA) based computational modelling work, a versatile computational modelling background is highly beneficial. ​​​
​
Key Accountabilities:

  • Responsible for delivering high quality and verified modelling tools, modelling output and analysis to accelerate our core product development.
  • Responsible for ensuring that new design elements are de-risked, optimised, and robust to variations in operation over the product lifetime – primarily in the structural and FEA domain.
  • Where required, take responsibility for technical leadership of a modelling team to deliver work packages to an internal or customer facing project.
  • Collaborate and work with a wide range of internal and customer facing projects to solve business-critical problems.
  • Present modelling results in a clear and consistent manner to internal and external project teams.
  • Support IP creation through modelling - explore new design ideas for our products.
  • Support the roll-out of modelling tools to different parts of the organisation; deliver training and advice on the use of tools, interpretation of results, modelling approaches & best practices.
  • Contribute to the long-term strategy and the future direction of the department.
    ​
    Knowledge and skills required for the role:
  • Degree qualified in a relevant discipline to a Bachelor or Master level (e.g. Mechanical-, Automotive-, Aerospace-Engineering, Chemical & Process Engineering, or another STEM related field)
  • Several years of industrial experience in computational modelling especially in the FEA domain using tools such as Ansys, COMSOL, Star CCM, Abaqus – a wider modelling domain background and experience is highly beneficial
  • Deep understanding of analytical design and verification methods, and limitations of computational models
  • Ability to create physics-based models from first principles and solve problems using these (e.g. using programming languages such as MATLAB or Python)
  • Excellent communicator: capable of communicating and building and maintaining effective relationships at all levels
  • Fast learner of new domain knowledge, proactive, self-starter able to work with minimal instructions in a fast-paced environment, not afraid to fail and try again
    Benefits:
    • Gym Discounts
    • Life Insurance
    • Save as you Earn
    • Cycle to work scheme
    • Mental health Access
    • Annual Leave of 25 days + Bank Holidays
      Plus many more
      You will be working with a leading developer of clean energy technology who care deeply about our purpose, our people, our customers, and our planet.

The Future of Machine Learning Jobs: Careers That Don’t Exist Yet

Machine learning (ML) has become one of the most powerful forces reshaping the modern world. From voice assistants and recommendation engines to fraud detection and medical imaging, it underpins countless applications. ML is no longer confined to research labs—it powers business models, public services, and consumer technologies across the globe. In the UK, demand for machine learning professionals has risen dramatically. Organisations in finance, retail, healthcare, and defence are embedding ML into their operations. Start-ups in Cambridge, London, and Edinburgh are pioneering innovations, while government-backed initiatives aim to position the UK as a global AI leader. Salaries for ML engineers and researchers are among the highest in the tech sector. Yet despite its current importance, machine learning is only at the beginning of its journey. Advances in generative AI, quantum computing, robotics, and ethical governance will reshape the profession. Many of the most vital machine learning jobs of the next two decades don’t exist today. This article explores why new careers will emerge, the roles likely to appear, how today’s roles will evolve, why the UK is well positioned, and how professionals can prepare now.

Pre-Employment Checks for Machine Learning Jobs: DBS, References & Right-to-Work and more Explained

Pre-employment screening in machine learning reflects the discipline's unique position at the intersection of artificial intelligence research, algorithmic decision-making, and transformative business automation. Machine learning professionals often have privileged access to proprietary datasets, cutting-edge algorithms, and strategic AI systems that form the foundation of organizational competitive advantage and automated decision-making capabilities. The machine learning industry operates within complex regulatory frameworks spanning AI governance directives, algorithmic accountability requirements, and emerging ML ethics regulations. Machine learning specialists must demonstrate not only technical competence in model development and deployment but also deep understanding of algorithmic fairness, AI safety principles, and the societal implications of automated decision-making at scale. Modern machine learning roles frequently involve developing systems that impact hiring decisions, financial services, healthcare diagnostics, and autonomous operations across multiple regulatory jurisdictions and ethical frameworks simultaneously. The combination of algorithmic influence, predictive capabilities, and automated decision-making authority makes thorough candidate verification essential for maintaining compliance, fairness, and public trust in AI-powered systems.
