About the job Senior Radar Algorithm Engineer

Senior Radar Algorithm Engineer

As a Senior Radar Algorithm Engineer, you will develop and deploy advanced algorithms for air-to-air radar systems operating in contested, modern electronic warfare environments. This role goes beyond theory - you will own the full lifecycle from algorithm design through production-ready implementation, validation, and integration into real hardware systems.

Responsibilities
  • Own end-to-end development of air-to-air radar algorithms-from concept through production-ensuring performance, affordability, testability, and scalability
  • Design, implement, and validate radar mode logic in Python or Rust, delivering robust performance in modern electronic warfare environments
  • Develop and execute verification and validation plans across simulation, chamber testing, captive flight, and live-fire scenarios, including calibration considerations
  • Operate within a disciplined software engineering environment, leveraging version control, code reviews, CI/CD, and testing frameworks

Basic Qualifications
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Physics, or a related technical field
  • Direct experience with air-to-air radar systems and associated algorithms
  • Strong background in signal processing, detection, tracking, and radar modes
  • Proficiency in Python and/or Rust, with experience writing production-quality code
  • Ability to operate in a disciplined software engineering environment (e.g., Git, code reviews, testing, issue tracking tools like Jira)

Preferred Skills and Experience
  • Experience working in electronic warfare or contested RF environments
  • Background in taking algorithms from concept through deployment on hardware systems
  • Familiarity with radar system calibration, integration, and test across multiple environments
  • Experience building scalable, maintainable software architectures for real-time systems

Additional Requirements
  • Ability to put in extended hours, including evenings and weekends, when required to meet aggressive timelines
  • This role is based in Allen, TX and requires full-time onsite presence
