WHAT THE TEAM REQUIRES:
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or a closely related field.
  • 8+ years of professional industry experience in DSP algorithm development and implementation. Exceptional proficiency in C and C++ for embedded systems.
  • Deep understanding of core signal processing fundamentals Extensive hands-on experience using MATLAB or Python (SciPy/NumPy) for mathematical modeling and algorithm simulation.
  • Proven track record of taking complex DSP algorithms from mathematical concepts all the way through to commercialized, production hardware.
  • Active Secret Clearance

WHAT THE TEAM PREFERS:
  • Master's or Ph.D. in a relevant discipline with a focus on signal processing, radar, or communications.
  • Experience with Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS) and bare-metal programming environments. Experience signal processing pipelines in Gitlab.
  • Prior experience acting as the primary technical lead or architect for a major, multi-disciplinary engineering project.

PAY TRANSPARENCY: The salary offered will be based on the selected candidate's qualifications - skills, education & experience - and the position level. $150,000 - $170,000

APPLICATION DEADLINE: Oct 1, 2026
