Principal Undersea Signal Processing System Architect

4 weeks ago


Woburn, United States STR Full time

About the Team:

The Undersea Systems and Acoustics (USA) Group in the STR Sensors Division develops and delivers advanced undersea sensor and signal processing systems centered around intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) and counter-ISR. Our applications range from detection and classification problems to acoustic warfare and protection analogous to electronic warfare.

Our systems range from advanced algorithms leveraging high performance computing to low size, weight, and power (SWAP) distributed uncrewed systems supporting real-time embedded processing. Using modeling and simulation, experimental campaigns, and prototyping coupled with testing that progresses through bench-top, tank, lake, and at-sea demonstrations, we mature innovative concepts into prototypes and fielded systems to address critical defense needs with agility, persistence, and scale.

The Role:

The primary role of this position is architecting distributed, uncrewed, undersea acoustic signal processing systems which necessarily must consider the inter-related system concepts, algorithms, hardware implementations, and electronic system and sub-system designs to achieve mission objectives. Key system attributes may include low-latency, high fractional bandwidth, and tight inter-node synchronization, depending on each specific application.

Given the research nature of our advanced prototyping, the ideal candidate would be multi-disciplinary and have a working knowledge of all the technology required to architect a real-time signal processing system ( real-time processing hardware, interfaces, firmware, software, sensors, data acquisition, physics, etc.)

in order to steer a team of other experts (MEs, EEs, etc.) to realize the system concepts and achieve mission goals.

What you will do:

Lead small, multi-disciplinary teams to architect, develop, implement, and test novel sensing and signal processing systems with multi-program multi-year roadmaps.

Develop state-of-the-art system synchronization approaches

Design and implement cutting-edge technology in undersea acoustic hardware and software prototypes, leveraging modern development tools and practices

Work with others to model and simulate the advanced undersea acoustic systems under development at scales from individual sensor physics to macroscopic theater-level impact

Communicate technical details and progress to customers, stakeholders, sponsors, prime- and sub-contractors

Who you are:

This position requires an active security clearance, and eligibility to support special access programs, for which U.S. citizenship is needed by U.S. Government.

PhD or MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Ocean Engineering, Applied Mathematics, Physics, or related technical discipline

Demonstrated leadership experience in advanced research and development projects with 10+ years for PhD, 15+ years for MS

Ability to create and present deep technical briefings as well as high-level briefings to customers and senior management

Ability to survey literature to determine state-of-the-art, incorporate recent research and apply to current problem sets

Understanding and experience in interacting with decision-makers and customers to translate mission needs into an end-to-end analytical solution

Experience with version control and collaboration tools (git, jira, etc.)
