About the role

Signal Processing Engineer responsible for the algorithmic core of the drone-to-ground radio link, including waveform design, anti-jam logic, and SIGINT, collaborating with RF hardware, FPGA, and software engineers to bring algorithms from theory to flight.

Responsibilities

  • Waveform Design: Design modulation, coding, and equalization schemes for a robust, low-latency radio link.
  • Anti-Jamming (ECCM): Build algorithms that keep the radio link alive under active jamming.
  • Signal Intelligence (SIGINT): Detect and characterize other radio emitters in the operating environment.
  • Mesh Networking: Optimize protocols so multiple radio units share the airwaves without collision.
  • AI-Assisted Processing: Apply machine learning to jamming detection and channel prediction where it improves field robustness.
  • Field Validation: Take algorithms from simulation to lab bench to real flight test.
  • Radio System Integration: Work daily with RF hardware and FPGA engineers to bring designs into a fielded radio.

Qualifications

  • Master's or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Signal Processing, or Applied Mathematics.
  • 8-12 years designing radio or communication systems, from algorithms to deployed products.
  • Hands-on experience with modem or waveform design: modulation, coding, synchronization, equalization.
  • Solid grounding in probability, DSP, and information theory; comfortable deriving solutions from first principles.
  • Practical awareness of RF hardware and FPGA constraints (latency, precision, real-time processing).
  • Exposure to ECCM, SIGINT, or mesh networking is a strong plus.
  • Clear communicator across RF, FPGA, and software disciplines.
  • Fluency in English required; French is a plus.
