About the job
Job summary
Dstl is the science and technology arm of the Ministry of Defence. We improve the front-line capability of the UK Armed Forces helping keep our country safe.
The Cyber Security and Safety Group has never been more important. Many military platforms such as fast jets, unmanned air vehicles, helicopters, naval vessels, and land vehicles are becoming increasingly reliant on Software, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Autonomous functions to control all aspects of their behaviour.
We’re looking for mathematically strong data scientists to help make AI reliant military systems robust and trustworthy in complex operations to help save lives.
An example of our world class inspiring work is designing and trialling a variety of autonomous air and ground vehicles out in Salisbury plain with the US and Australia. AI models were retrained in flight to meet changing mission situations to enhance commanders’ decision-making.
You could be involved in:
Assessing and improving AI content in Defence and Security safety critical systems in the Air, Sea and Land domains, to ensure that they are safe, secure and protected.
Applying the latest thinking in verification and validation of artificial intelligence and autonomous functions for defence and security purposes.
Innovating to support the delivery of the UK Cyber Strategy by researching algorithms for Cyber defence.
Dstl recognises the importance of diversity and inclusion as people from diverse backgrounds bring fresh ideas. We are committed to building an inclusive working environment in which each employee fulfils their potential and maximises their contribution.
We particularly welcome female and ethnic minority applicants and those from the LGBTQI community, as they are under-represented within Dstl at these levels.
