Job Description:
We are seeking cleared Sr. Principal Digital Signal Processing Engineers who are self-motivated, energetic individuals who will be responsible for developing cutting edge algorithms in MATLAB or other programming languages such as CUDA/OpenCL, Python, C/C++ in Linux/UNIX or Windows environments. The preferred candidate will have experience with various Signal Processing algorithms both in time and frequency domains, understanding of Digital Communication Systems and various modulation techniques as well as RF signal processing chains and link budgets.
Digital Signal Processing (DSP) Engineers contribute to a broad range of applications with exposure to a variety of programs and technologies that provide critical solutions to US government intelligence agencies and the Department of Defense. Practical experience in any of these fields is highly desired:
- RADAR (SAR/ISAR)
- LPI/LPD waveforms
- EW techniques
- Software Defined Radios (SDRs)
- Image Processing and AI/ML techniques
As a DSP Engineer at Client – Xetron, you will be part of a cross-discipline, highly seasoned and talented team with experience in state-of-the-art RF, Antenna Design, DSP, Digital Hardware Design and Cyber Software Design, amongst others. We're pushing the boundaries of what's possible, on the ground, air and space.
