The role
You will own signal processing algorithms for an airborne radar payload. You will handle algorithmic research, embedded implementation, and flight validation.
What you will do
- Design and implement near-real-time algorithms for radar image formation.
- Develop and refine detection and tracking algorithms for moving target indication.
- Build jamming estimation capabilities and adaptive logic.
- Contribute radar-derived observables and algorithms for navigation when GNSS is unavailable.
- Prototype and port algorithms onto embedded computing platforms.
- Validate algorithms through hardware-in-the-loop bench testing, anechoic chamber campaigns, and real flight conditions.
- Work with EW and RF analytics modules to align development with system-level requirements.
Required qualifications
- 2 to 5 years of confirmed, hands-on experience in radar signal processing.
- Solid experience in Signal Processing on radar systems, either FMCW or pulsed.
- Strong theoretical foundations and genuine hands-on comfort with the underlying mathematics.
- Ability to take full ownership of a technical scope end-to-end with minimal oversight.
- Comfortable working in a fast, iterative cycle of writing code and running hardware-in-the-loop tests.
Nice to have
- Experience gained in the defense or automotive radar industry
- Exposure to moving target tracking
- Exposure to ECCM
- Exposure to radar-based navigation
- Exposure to live/real-time processing
