Job Description
Senior DSP Engineer, Remote with Travel
Fairwinds Technologies
• Design, develop, and optimize DSP algorithms for RF communications signals, including waveform processing in contested and dynamic environments (e.g., filtering, synchronization, channelization, detection/estimation, demodulation/decoding, interference mitigation). • Lead algorithm development from concept through prototype to implementation, balancing performance, latency, robustness, and computational constraints. • Implement and validate DSP solutions on heterogeneous compute platforms including Xilinx RFSoC, UltraScale+, and Versal, leveraging PL/PS resources and hardware acceleration as appropriate. • Collaborate with FPGA engineers to translate algorithms into hardware-realizable architectures (fixed-point design, throughput/latency optimization, resource trade studies, hardware-friendly formulations). • Work closely with embedded software engineers to integrate real-time DSP pipelines (drivers, data movement, DMA, streaming interfaces, buffering strategies, runtime configuration). • Develop and execute test/verification strategies using lab instrumentation and captured RF datasets; characterize performance under impairments (CFO/phase noise, multipath, fading, interference/jamming, nonlinearities). • Develop simulation and analysis environments (e.g., MATLAB/Simulink, Python) and correlate simulation results to hardware/field behavior. • Provide technical leadership: define architecture, conduct design reviews, mentor engineers, and communicate trade-offs clearly to stakeholders. • Produce high-quality documentation (DSP design descriptions, algorithm specs, performance reports, ICD inputs, SBIR deliverables as required). • Support integration, debug, and field test activities spanning DSP, RF, FPGA, and embedded software domains.
Job Requirements
- Master’s degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Applied Mathematics, Physics, or related field.
- 15+ years of relevant DSP engineering experience with demonstrated delivery of RF communications signal processing solutions.
- Proven practical experience processing RF communications signals (beyond academic examples), including development, validation, and performance characterization.
- Strong fundamentals in communications and statistical signal processing (detection/estimation, synchronization, spectral analysis, filtering, modulation/demodulation concepts).
- Experience implementing DSP on embedded/real-time systems and/or hardware-accelerated platforms, including Xilinx UltraScale+, RFSoC, and Versal.
- Ability to simulate and/or model DSP algorithms in a suitable environment (MATLAB, Modelsim, etc.), with the ability to define or implement fixed-point functions, where applicable.
- Demonstrated ability to create innovative DSP approaches when standard methods are insufficient—creative problem solver with strong analytical rigor.
- Proficiency in at least one of: Python, C/C++, HDL (VHDL or Verilog), MATLAB (or equivalent), with disciplined software engineering practices.
- Experience working with cross-functional teams (RF, FPGA, embedded, systems) to deliver complete system solutions.
- U.S. Citizenship and an active DoD Secret (or higher) security clearance (or ability to obtain).
