Senior Acoustic Signal Processing Engineer

About the role

As a Senior Signal Processing Engineer, you will be a key technical contributor to the development of detection, classification, localization, and tracking (DCLT) algorithms for Vatn’s underwater acoustic sensors.

Responsibilities

• Algorithm development & refinement for forward looking sonar products
• System Hardening: Analyze real-world data to improve robustness against complex acoustic environments
• Algorithms Improvement: Propose and implement improvements to the homing system and target management framework to increase mission reliability
• Develop automated data analysis pipelines from data collect to metrics reporting
• DCLT Algorithm Implementation: Develop detection, classification, localization, and tracking algorithms
• Edge Deployment: Translate high-level algorithm into prototypes into efficient, real-time code optimized for deployment on embedded edge-compute hardware
• Support in-water development and in-water integration testing of the homing system
• Work with key stakeholders - internal and external (government) - to translate mission CONOPS and requirements to robust testing programs to validate homing performance
• Develop detailed sonar equation models of active and passive acoustic devices and systems for internal/external project support

Requirements

• Required Secret Clearance
• Demonstrated knowledge of statistical signal processing, tracking algorithms, acoustic signal processing and machine learning
• Ability to analyze and deploy algorithms at the edge: embedded signal processing
• Proficiency in Matlab, Python, C/C++
