RESEARCH ENGINEER - SR. RESEARCH ENGINEER - Signal Processing Engineer
New Today
Objectives of this Role:
Work with multidisciplinary team of engineers, software developers, and technicians in the execution of R&D, design, and testing systems and software in support of national security.
Design, develop, integrate, test and deploy new signal processing capabilities in the areas of energy detection, channelization, signal recognition, signal demodulation/decoding & encoding/modulating, RF geolocation and electronic warfare
Simulate and develop radar signal processing algorithms for blind radar detection and parameterization in a complex propagation and environment (HF ionospheric propagation channels)
Simulate HF propagation using advanced tools for predicting signal effects due to multi-path and scattering to evaluate algorithm performance with realistic data
Daily and Monthly Responsibilities:
Collaborate with client technical representatives and SwRI senior engineering and software staff to develop algorithms and write software and scripts for signal processing applications and to test software and related systems.
Work at SwRI laboratories and support short-term travel to government facilities/military bases or other customer facilities for system installations and to provide technical support within and outside the United States
Present progress and findings to your project teams and clients.
Prepare technical documents and support proposal preparation as required.
Requirements:
Requires a Masters or a PhD in Electrical Engineering, Electrical and Computer Engineering or Computer Engineering.
0-2 years: Applicants with PhD qualify with 0 years full-time experience as long as their doctoral work included radar signal processing. Communications signal processing desired, but not required.
2-5 years: Applicants without a PhD (Master's only) qualify with 2 or more yrs of work experience in signal processing with understanding of radar system concepts and waveforms; Over-the-horizon radar (OTHR) or ionospheric sounder processing experience desired.
Experience with C/C++ and Python are required. Linux and MATLAB proficiency are desired.
Coursework and/or research experience with application of machine learning to signal processing is strongly desired.
A valid/clear driver's license is required.
