Full job description
We Are Skyral:
We believe every decision maker can be empowered by technology. Skyral combines AI, leading edge simulation technology and world class expertise to transform the decision making experience. Our products and services enable faster and more confident decisions in a complex, unforgiving world. We deploy practical, intuitive and efficient solutions to governments and enterprises, delivering outstanding outcomes at the speed of relevance.

At Omnia Training, we’ve brought together some of the UK’s most innovative defence training organisations under one powerful mission: to transform the British Army’s training system and create the best-trained Army in the world.

Omnia Training is redefining the British Army’s collective training capabilities. To do that, we are looking for the best and brightest minds from across the UK. Omnia Training is at the heart of the UK’s bold Land Industrial Strategy.

This is more than a job — it’s a mission. You will be part of a high-impact, collaborative environment, where every person in our team plays a critical role in delivering Omnia Training’s vision; designing, delivering, and transforming collective training.


MPORTANT – PLEASE READ BEFORE APPLYING

This role is based full-time onsite in Warminster, Wiltshire. You will be required to work from the Warminster site five days per week. This is not a hybrid or remote role, and we cannot accommodate candidates who are only able to attend the site for part of the working week.

Security Clearance (SC) is a mandatory requirement for this role. To be considered, you must have been resident in the UK for the last five years and be eligible to obtain UK Security Clearance. If you do not meet this residency requirement, we will not be able to progress your application.

Please only apply if you meet both of these requirements: five days per week onsite in Warminster, Wiltshire, and five years’ UK residency for SC clearance.

We Are Skyral:   We believe every decision maker can be empowered by technology. Skyral combines AI, leading edge simulation technology and world class expertise to transform the decision making experience. Our products and services enable faster and more confident decisions in a complex, unforgiving world. We deploy practical, intuitive and efficient solutions to governments and enterprises, delivering outstanding outcomes at the speed of relevance. Note: Please feel empowered to apply for this position, even if you think you may only align with some of the qualities listed above. Your unique skills and perspectives could be just what we’re looking for.   What We Can Offer You:    🌴Unlimited Paid Holiday - we value and support the need to maintain a strong work-life balance.    🏡 Hybrid Working - we understand that a one-size-fits all approach doesn’t suit everyone.    ⏰ Flexible Working Hours -  We’re not bound by the 9-to-5 model. Collaborate with your manager on determining a work schedule that suits you.    🍼 Enhanced Parental Leave - we’re proud to offer 26 weeks maternity leave and 4 weeks paternity leave at full pay.   🏥 Private Medical & Dental Insurance - offered through Bupa.    💲Honest about Compensation - We maintain a well defined salary range which a member of the Talent Team will discuss with you during the first call.    ☕ Healthy Snacks & Drinks Provided - If you decide to come into the office, we have a range of snacks and drinks for you to enjoy.   At Skyral, we are committed to fostering a culture of diversity, equality and inclusion. We also ensure that individuals with disabilities have access to reasonable adjustments. If you require such accommodations during the job application process we ask that you inform a member of our Talent Team.

What You’ll Be Responsible For:

  • Develop and adapt models based on customer-provided data, SME input and training needs.

  • Implement behavioural logic, effects, interactions, and environmental responses in a way that is both representative and computationally efficient.

  • Tune models to balance fidelity, performance, and scalability, making pragmatic trade-offs based on how the model will actually be used.

  • Design models to be reusable and composable, contributing to a broader simulation ecosystem rather than one-off implementations.

  • Ensure models behave coherently when composed with other models and systems, including handling timing, synchronisation, and interaction consistency.

  • Integrate models with other simulation components, terrain, and environment systems, and external systems (e.g. via HLA, DIS, APIs).

  • Working closely with our Simulation Integration Engineers, Simulation Content Engineer, and Quality Assurance Engineer.

  • Take ownership of a primary modelling area (e.g. capability & effects, human behaviour, environment, or interoperability) while contributing across domains where required.

  • Mentor and review the work of other modelling engineers to raise the technical bar across the team.

  • Support iterative improvement based on validation outcomes, exercise feedback, and operational use.
