We are looking for those who can undertake the research but also understand how to translate this into product. Highly advantageous if you’ve supported or led bids/bid requirements.

Key Responsibilities and Tasks:

Conduct applied and experimental AI research to solve complex customer and business problems across defence, aerospace, cyber security, rail, critical national infrastructure and related domains.
Develop state-of-the-art AI/ML solutions, proofs of concept and research prototypes using real-world data and operationally relevant problem statements.
Investigate, design, implement and evaluate advanced AI methods, including but not limited to deep learning, multimodal AI, self-supervised learning, foundation models, generative AI, computer vision, NLP/LLMs, time-series analytics and reinforcement learning where relevant.
Translate business and customer needs into clear research questions, experimental plans, technical requirements and measurable success criteria.
Design robust evaluation methodologies, including baselines, benchmarks, ablation studies, uncertainty assessment, robustness testing and performance measurement against operationally meaningful metrics.
Collaborate with AI V&V, AI Assurance, Human-Machine Teaming and Applied AI groups to ensure research outputs are trustworthy, human-centred, explainable and suitable for future operational use.
Build reproducible research pipelines, including data preprocessing, feature engineering, model training, experiment tracking, evaluation and technical reporting.
Ensure Responsible AI practices are embedded throughout the research lifecycle, including robustness, safety, explainability, transparency, fairness, privacy, security and alignment with MOD, regulatory and Thales governance requirements.
Create proofs of concept, publications, invention disclosures, patents, technical reports and reusable research assets around advanced AI topics such as multimodal learning, self-supervised learning, foundation models and human-AI collaboration.
Package research outputs in a form that enables transition to AI engineering teams, including demonstrator code, model cards, experiment reports, design notes and handover documentation.
Support bids, PoCs, demos, customer workshops, innovation campaigns and stakeholder briefings by communicating research concepts and outcomes to technical and non-technical audiences.
Work with data engineers, architects and domain experts on data acquisition, labelling strategies, synthetic data approaches, integration of third-party data and data quality management.
Horizon scan for major AI research and technology trends, assess relevance to Thales markets, run trials and share best practices to accelerate responsible adoption.
