**Project Title**:Physics-based modelling of ionospheric plasma dynamics for accurate positioning and navigation

**Position Summary**:

- Modern transportation systems depend heavily on accurate GNSS-based positioning, which is greatly affected by the ionospheric state such as electron density and plasma bubble irregularity. Depending on the ionopsheric plasma dynamics, the GNSS signals transmitted by navigation satellites might be attenuated and/or distorted when received by GNSS receivers onboard aircrafts and ships.
- The Research Engineer will work on PhD project, which aims to study and analyse the physics of ionospheric dynamics, scintillation and plasma bubble irregularities for accurate positioning and navigation.

**Responsibilities**:
**Requirements**:

- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering, or Physical Sciences.
- Knowledge of electromagnetism and plasma physics is a must
- Good knowledge of data analytics, AI & machine learning is good to have
- Keen interest to contribute to improving the safety of aviation and maritime systems.
- Good communication and presentation skills, with appetite for engagement with the industrial supervisor and collaborators.
- Self-starter with good analytical and problem-solving skills.

At Thales, we’re committed to fostering a workplace where respect, trust, collaboration, and passion drive everything we do. Here, you’ll feel empowered to bring your best self, thrive in a supportive culture, and love the work you do.
