Principal Digital Signal Processing Engineer

Role Description

The newly-formed Digital Signal Processing (DSP) group in North America develops innovative new technology to enable world-leading wireless communications capabilities for US Government applications. We are looking for talented, experienced DSP engineers with an interest in designing and implementing systems using advanced signal processing algorithms to create new capabilities in the areas of wireless communications, sensors, audio processing, and image processing systems.

In this role you will design and develop prototype systems that demonstrate novel capabilities for a diverse range of products. Whereas Cambridge Consultants has produced innovations linked below for commercial entities, our team has been spun out in order to provide this sort of advanced capability for US Government clients.

• Ultra-reliable communications for satellites
• IP block acceleration of Voice Activity Detection using custom in-house DSP cores
• Map-based indoor navigation using sensor fusion
• Next generation commercial radio receiver design
• Communications system for a fleet of bots in a challenging indoor environment

What we offer

You'll have the opportunity to steer your career along the path of your choice, whether you prefer meeting and talking with clients or leading teams on innovative projects. Our collaborative and supportive working environment allows our engineers to quickly develop their skills and knowledge in unfamiliar areas, enabling us to drive development of cutting-edge technologies at a rapid pace.

As a member of this new team, you will be involved in every stage of our technology development life cycle, from developing proof-of-concept demonstrations for initial sales leads to designing, implementing, and testing innovative new products. In addition to day-to-day project work you'll also play a part in creating the Capgemini of tomorrow: contributing to new IP generation, influencing the direction or our DSP skillset development, and evolving our capabilities in groundbreaking new technologies.

What you'll bring

• A passion for signal processing with a desire to broaden your horizons in new and exciting areas
• MS/BS with 7+ years of experience in a field related to digital signal processing (e.g., computer science, computer engineering, electrical engineering, physics, mathematics, etc.)
