THOROUGHBRED PERKS

    FLEXIBLE WORK HOURS
    Inspiration doesn’t work 8 to 5 and neither do we (unless you’d like to of course…). As long as you put in your 8 hours a day, we don’t mind when you start or finish. That means you can put life first, avoiding the traffic, hitting the gym, ferrying kids or catching up on your beauty sleep. Your call.
    TUITION BENEFITS
    When you learn, we learn, which is why we actively promote a culture of constant personal development. If it’s a course of study that we prescribe, it’s on us. If there is something else you’d like to pursue and it’s in your line of work, we will come to the party with a generous contribution to your tuition and some time off to study.
    COFFEE CONNOISSEUR?
    Cappuccino, flat white, espresso, macchiato, short, long, black, white, we have it all. As much bean-to-cup coffee as you can drink, guaranteed. Or for those less dependent on caffeine, there’s also tea, milo and hot choc to fuel your day. Oh, did we mention it’s free…?
    WORK HARD, PLAY HARD!
    Fancy a little competition? Join in the weekly soccer match or if you prefer, go digital and challenge your mates on the LAN or canteen PS4. Friday afternoon drinks, social braais and team building events are also a regular treat for the less competitively inclined.
    COMFORT FIRST!
    We’re not strict when it comes to what you wear to work.
    We want you comfortable, not stuffed into a suit, so by all means, keep it casual.
    LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION!
    They say it matters and we agree! All our offices are located in prime locations. The beach, a warm ocean, gym, great restaurants and world-class shopping malls all within 5 min of our Durban Campus.


Location: Durban, South Africa
Remuneration: Market-related


Shape the next generation of simulator-based operator training! As a Technical Analyst at ThoroughTec Simulation, you will define, document, and validate the specifications that bring our world-class simulators to life.

The role
The Technical Analyst (TA) is the custodian of the simulator specification, owning the definition of features and functionality across the full product lifecycle. You will work closely with clients to collect reference data and capture training needs, then collaborate with internal teams to turn this into a clear, detailed specification. This includes defining hardware controls, system logic, operator faults, student evaluations and reporting frameworks. Finally, you will ensure the delivered product matches your specification through structured testing and validation.

Key responsibilities

  • Collect and organize reference data from site visits, including OEM details, SOPs and common training gaps.
  • Draft and maintain the simulator specification documents across the revision stages required by ThoroughTec’s internal standards.
  • Work with the Electro-Mechanical Design department to define hardware instruments, controls, and physical simulator components.
  • Specify and document the complete functional behavior of all systems, subsystems and 2D console screens.
  • Design fault conditions and define resulting simulator responses (lamps, warnings, pop-ups, ).
  • Develop student evaluations and reporting frameworks for instructors to measure trainee performance.
  • Collaborate with the Art team to ensure SOP-compliant vehicle and virtual world designs.
  • Support demonstrations and reviews with stakeholders throughout the software development lifecycle, updating the specification documents through this process, as required.
  • Working with quality control teams, conduct product testing to ensure that the final product meets specification and client expectations.

Minimum qualifications

  • Degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related analytical/technical discipline.

Requirements

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Excellent written communication skills with experience drafting technical documentation.
  • Willingness to travel to and work at client sites around the world.
  • Ability to manage multiple stakeholders and coordinate priorities across teams.
  • Proactive and accountable in managing deliverables, while working collaboratively within a team environment.

Beneficial attributes:

  • Experience as a Technical or Business Analyst.
  • Ability to work alone and interact with multiple teams.
  • A completer-finisher mentality with a drive to meet deadlines,
  • Basic familiarity with software development methodologies.
  • Experience defining evaluations, KPIs, or operator performance measures.
  • Exposure to heavy equipment operation.

If you are passionate about combining technical analysis, training design, and real-world engineering, we want to hear from you. Join us to make a measurable impact on safety and performance by being the driving force behind functionality in our high-end simulators.
