Are you a Computer Science researcher with a PhD who wants to take research beyond academic papers and turn it into technology that solves real-world problems?

This role sits within a software engineering team delivering both internal and customer-funded research, developing proof-of-concepts and prototypes that can ultimately become future operational capabilities. The work covers complex computer science challenges within secure environments, with a strong focus on experimentation, innovation and practical delivery.

You'll be responsible for conducting research, designing experiments using the scientific method, documenting findings and presenting outcomes to technical and non-technical stakeholders. You'll also work closely with software engineers to turn research into working prototypes.

The key experience required is:

• PhD in Computer Science or a closely related subject
• Experience conducting innovative Computer Science research
• Strong Java development skills, alongside some Python and Bash
• Experience designing experiments and applying the scientific method
• Strong research report writing and presentation skills
