- Conduct analysis on seeker simulation data to identify areas of improvement and guide recommendations for system robustness in the presence of challenging operational environments
- Review and modify the application of general digital signal processing techniques to the processing of reradiated signal content to ensure accurate signal characteristic identification
- Support the tactical implementation of algorithm designs into Ada or C++ software
Preferred Qualifications
- 5 years of experience in Digital Signal Processing/Radar/Digital Communications algorithms and techniques (equalization, waveform processing, detection/acquisition/discrimination, channel estimation, filter design, resampling theory, etc.)
- Experience with MATLAB for data analysis, prototyping, and/or modeling and simulation
- Experience in digital signal processing theory, including the application of fundamental digital signal processing techniques
- Knowledge of linear signal theory, Fourier transforms, and communication theory
- RF, electrical transmission, signal processing and modeling in MATLAB
- System test experience including test design, implementation, and execution for breadboard and brassboard hardware
- Experience working in a fast-paced, independent research and development (IRAD) environment
- Familiarity with multiple programming languages and development environments (C++, Ada, Python, etc.) in an Agile environment
- Experience in formal technical writing (i.e. Whitepapers, Tech-Notes, Technical Journals, and Research Reports)
