About the role

Lead cross-functional teams in the design, development, and integration of high-performance Software Defined Radios (SDRs); develop advanced wireless algorithms and simulations; direct lab and OTA testing; drive RF systems from prototype to production and deployable data links.

Responsibilities

  • Lead cross-functional engineering teams (RF, hardware, and embedded software) in the design, development, and integration of high-performance Software Defined Radios (SDRs); direct DSP engineers in translating physical layer (PHY) communication algorithms into optimized software and FPGA/firmware implementations.
  • Design and implement advanced wireless communication algorithms and signal processing techniques, including modulation/demodulation (e.g., QAM, OFDM), channel coding (LDPC, Polar), synchronization, equalization, and beamforming for next-generation air interfaces.
  • Develop high-fidelity Modeling and Simulation (M&S) environments in MATLAB/C++ for wireless channel characterization, link-budget analysis, and end-to-end transceiver performance verification, leveraging Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) and Software-in-the-Loop (SIL) testing.
  • Direct laboratory and over-the-air (OTA) field testing of RF communication systems, conducting real-world characterization of RF front-ends, antennas, propagation effects, and dynamic interference mitigation techniques.
  • Drive the commercialization and maturation of RF systems from initial proof-of-concept prototype to deployable, production-ready wireless communication products and tactical data links.

Qualifications

  • 7+ years with a BSEE or related field
  • Strong experience with DSP implementation for embedded devices and/or software defined radios.
  • Strong knowledge of Python and MATLAB. Experience with CUDA or GPU accelerated frameworks like cuSignal is preferred.
  • Experience with embedded devices, including FPGA, Nvidia Jetson, and Software Defined Radios.
  • Skilled with Modeling and Simulation of RF systems including Radar and SAR
  • Familiar with deep learning algorithms. Experience with ML frameworks such as TensorFlow and PyTorch is a plus.
  • Familiar with wireless communication standards (Bluetooth, 3G/4G/5G, Wi-Fi, SINCGARS, MUOS, etc.).
  • Excellent at balancing multiple projects at any given time and/or managing a larger team for a larger program.
  • Enthusiastic about both working with a team and executing some work individually (depending on program scope).
  • Experience with Electronic Warfare systems.
  • Some travel required.
  • Currently possesses and is able to maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.
