Job Description
Our client is currently seeking a full-time Digital Signal Processing (DSP) Engineer to join the team and help develop and implement signal processing algorithms for our commercial Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS). Their system consists of a constellation of commercial satellites and a network of ground stations, and as the DSP Engineer, you will be responsible for designing, developing and implementing innovative signal processing solutions at the heart of their GNSS receiver's measurement engine. Further, you will work directly with the Chief Engineer and the Satellite Payload team to develop the system's primary signal and data structures, leveraging the company's proprietary satellite and RF technologies.
You will also research and advise on the state of industry's best DSP practices, tools, and technologies in support of company strategy. As an early hire, significant upward mobility will be available to you in short order, including manager and director level positions.
Responsibilities:

• Develop simple and reliable signal processing software and firmware for a variety of processors, SoC's and FPGAs.
• Assist with the development of signal specifications and their implementation.
• Implement cutting-edge signal processing algorithms to derive precise signal measurement data from GNSS signals.
• Develop novel methods based on digital signal processing, statistical processing, and machine learning to extract features from RF data, identify RF signals, and mitigate interference and errors.
• Test software, firmware and full RF solutions in simulation, hardware-in-the-loop, and field demonstrations.
• Support the engineering and business teams to derive DSP linked requirements across the company.
• Support the product development team with productization of our technologies and solutions.
• Support the space and ground infrastructure operations team in system commissioning, operations automation, anomaly investigation and mitigation.
• Maintain an unwavering focus on meeting software development targets and achieving objectives.

Requirements

• B.S. in electrical engineering, computer science or equivalent practical experience (M.S. preferred)
• 5 years of experience developing VHDL, Verilog, and/or C/C for high-performance embedded devices
• 3 years of experience in digital signal processing for GNSS or wireless communication applications
• Proficiency in digital communications and digital signal processing theory and applications, including some familiarity with modern wireless communication standards (4G, 5G, WiFi, SATCOM, IoT)
• Hands on experience with software defined radios and RF systems
• Highly motivated, self-starting, and able to perform duties autonomously without supervision
• Passionate about solving customer problems through new and innovative technology
• Excellent professional and interpersonal communication skills, verbal and written
• Strong organizational skills and professional business practices.
• US Citizen or US Permanent Resident Status (Green Card)
• Ability to travel <10%

Desired:

• A working understanding of wireless communication hardware such as RF front ends, RFICs, FPGAs, SoCs, and antennas
• Experience with industry standard SoC and FPGA development toolsets and development environments
• Experience working with modern wireless communication standards (4G, 5G, WiFi, SATCOM, IoT)
• Experience working in startups
• Active US security clearance

Benefits
The selected candidate will be competitively compensated with salary, equity (stock options), and standard benefits.
