Job Title: Digital Signal Processing Engineer

We are seeking a highly skilled Digital Signal Processing Engineer to join our team at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL). As a key member of our team, you will be responsible for designing, analyzing, and developing RF and optical systems and payloads for NASA and DoD's next generation space missions.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Design and develop digital signal processing algorithms for RF and optical systems
  • Work with engineers and scientists to develop new concepts for software-defined radios and payloads
  • Lead technical teams throughout the payload development cycle, including concept, trade studies, prototype work, flight development, integration, and test
  • Perform DSP algorithms design, simulation, hardware platform trade studies, technical tradeoffs, and costing for both space and ground segment implementations
Requirements:
  • BS or MS in Electrical Engineering or equivalent
  • 5+ years direct experience in digital signal processing for RF or optical systems or payload design, development, simulation, and test
  • Experience in wireless modem or receiver design and/or testing
  • Ability to obtain an interim Top-Secret level security clearance by start date and ultimately obtain a TS/SCI+poly level clearance
Preferred Qualifications:
  • PhD degree in Electrical Engineering with previous digital signal processing for RF systems or payload design leadership experience
  • Experience with software-defined radios (SDR), antennas, RF characterization and measurements to Ka-band or beyond, optical, PNT systems design, radar systems design, or military satellite communications systems

We offer a vibrant, welcoming atmosphere where you can bring your authentic self to work, continue to grow, and build strong connections with inspiring teammates. Our employees enjoy generous benefits, including a robust education assistance program, unparalleled retirement contributions, and a healthy work-life balance. APL's campus is located in the Baltimore-Washington metro area.
