Senior Digital Signal Processing (DSP) Engineer - Product

We're hiring a Product DSP Engineer to move RF signal processing from working in the lab to working in the field. You'll own the production signal chain: making it deterministic, real-time, and reliable in contested RF environments. This role will focus on implementing and refining algorithms to run consistently on the target hardware within the latency, power, and thermal budgets, with the adequate test coverage and validation. You'll have real ownership of your work, the problems are challenging, and your teammates hold themselves to a high standard. Responsibilities Production-izing detection, classification, tracking, and direction-finding/geolocation algorithms for target hardware (NVIDIA Jetson, FPGA, SDR) within fixed compute, memory, latency, and power budgetsBuilding regression and characterization test suites that validate signal-chain performance against real and synthetic dataAccounting for the behavior and inconsistencies of the target RF hardware in your algorithm designMaking algorithms robust against real-world conditions: interference, multipath, dense emitter environments, dropouts, calibration drift, and temperatureDoing the fixed-point/quantization, profiling, and optimization work needed to hit real-time on embedded targetsDefining and tracking performance metrics (Pd/Pfa, sensitivity, DF accuracy, latency) as product acceptance criteriaSupporting field test, reproducing field issues in the lab, and owning root cause through fix Qualifications BS/MS in mathematics, physics, electrical engineering, computer science, or related technical fieldBroad understanding of RF hardware effects, and intricacies of coherent and non-coherent systemsSolid RF signal processing fundamentals: detection, estimation, the full transmit/receive chainDemonstrated track record shipping DSP into a product or fielded systemProficiency in MATLAB and/or Python for analysis, and C/C++ for production codeComfort working under embedded/real-time constraints, with profiling and optimizationMust be eligible to obtain and maintain a U.S. TS clearance; U.S. person required Nice-to-Have FMCW/automotive radar chains, MIMO arrays and subspace AoA estimation, or SAR production chains (backprojection, polar formatting, range migration)Fixed-point DSP implementation; FPGA or GPU/CUDA accelerationTest automation and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) for signal processingExperience fielding the same core technology in seemingly independent con-ops Join our team and be part of a dynamic, collaborative environment where innovation and creativity thrive. We offer competitive compensation, comprehensive benefits, and the opportunity to work on groundbreaking projects that will shape the future of radar technology.
