Radar Signal Processing Engineer - Technical Staff

We are seeking a highly skilled Radar Signal Processing Engineer to join our team at MIT Lincoln Laboratory. As a member of our dynamic team, you will play a key role in the design, development, and implementation of cutting-edge radar signal processing algorithms that support real-world missions.

Responsibilities:
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to develop and optimize radar signal processing algorithms for improved target detection, tracking, and identification.
  • Analyze and interpret radar data to extract meaningful insights and enhance system performance.
  • Conduct in-depth research to stay up-to-date with the latest advancements in signal processing and radar technologies.
  • Design, simulate, and implement signal processing algorithms using tools like MATLAB, Python, or similar with the opportunity to incorporate advanced AI/ML techniques in the areas of automatic target recognition, signal de-noising, target tracking, and interference mitigation.
  • Work on real-time implementation of algorithms on embedded platforms for practical applications.
  • Team up with hardware engineers to set system requirements, predict system performance, and ensure smooth integration and compatibility between processing algorithms, data types, and prototype hardware.
  • Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team to design and execute experiments that include both ground-based and airborne sensors.
  • Prepare technical documentation, including test plans, interface control documents, reports, and presentations, as well as technical presentations outlining project details and status.
  • Share new ideas and intuitions with your colleagues, collaborators, and others in our technical communities through mentorship, education, and outreach opportunities.
Qualifications:
  • PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Mathematics, Computer Science, or a related field. Specialization in signal processing or experience with radar is a plus.
  • Strong theoretical foundation in signal processing techniques, such as filtering, modulation, and estimation.
  • Proficiency in programming languages like MATLAB, Python, C/C++ for algorithm development and simulation.
  • Solid understanding of statistical signal processing and machine learning concepts.
  • Experience with radar systems, remote sensing, or signal/image processing applications, their components, and associated challenges is highly desirable but not required.
  • Familiarity with RF hardware (amplifiers, antennas, filters) and digital processing and control systems (FPGAs, GPUs, CPUs) is desirable but not required.
  • Willingness to travel occasionally to participate in (or lead) offsite field tests, data collection campaigns, exercises, and meetings.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work collaboratively in a team environment.
  • Effective communication skills to present complex technical concepts to diverse audiences.
  • A passion for innovation and a desire to contribute to advancements in radar technology.

We value diversity and encourage applications from candidates of all backgrounds. If you're ready to join a team with a passion for pushing the boundaries of radar technology, we'd love to hear from you.
