  • Support development of innovative radar/EW systems through implementation of digital signal processing (DSP)
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to understand and/or develop system requirements and specifications
  • Design and implement signal processing and software solutions
  • Conduct performance analysis through simulations and real-world testing to validate and optimize system performance
  • Prepare documentation, design specifications, test plans, and reports
  • Communicate effectively with internal teams and stakeholders to convey technical concepts and project updates
Who you are:
  • This position requires an Active SECRET security clearance with eligibility to obtain a Top Secret (TS) security clearance, for which U.S. citizenship is needed by the U.S. Government

  • Background should include a Bachelor's degree and at least 5 years of applicable experience; Master's degree and at least 3 years of applicable experience; or PhD. Equivalent experience will be considered
Nice to have:
  • Applicable understanding of and experience with Radar systems and their principles of design, development, requirements verification, test planning, test execution, and data analysis
  • Experience with algorithm implementation in software for real time systems, especially radar and/or remote sensing
  • CUDA experience preferred
  • Proficiency in radar simulation tools (MATLAB)
  • Capable of working in a team environment and interacting with team members to ensure effective communication and alignment including mentoring of junior engineers
  • Active Top Secret clearance
  • Applicable knowledge of target detection
  • Applicable domain experience in one or more of the following areas: Electronic Warfare, Antenna Apertures, Sensor Resource Management, Large-Scale Platform Test Systems, Cyber Physical Systems, Open System Architectures (UCI, OMS, COARPS)
