Summary

Scientists and Engineers at TTP invent novel technologies and technological products that make a difference to people’s lives, grow our clients’ businesses and help our business thrive. We work with the world’s most exciting and innovative companies to address diverse, deep technology problems from improving the safety of autonomous vehicles to deciphering complex nerve signals to understand disease progression.

You will be working as part of a multidisciplinary team, applying your deep knowledge of applied mathematics and physics to challenging real world problems. You will relish getting stuck in to the fundamentals of computational problems to build solutions where elegance is prioritised over convenience. You enjoy diving deep into the stack to develop computationally tractable algorithms on constrained hardware which will enable break-through products.

An example of this could be taking noisy sensor signals, working out how best to extract specific features from them robustly in real time, and delivering actionable insights. This could be for a small implantable medical device or edge processing in an autonomous vehicle

You will be a respected subject matter expert in multidisciplinary teams which deliver highly challenging technology development. High levels of communication, alignment, and trust enable each team member’s insight and energy to contribute to audacious goals. You will gain experience of exciting technologies while benefitting from the experience of an established professional services company.
