Engineer, DSP Algorithm Development

Job Title

Engineer, DSP Algorithm Development

Role Summary

Design, develop, and implement digital signal processing (DSP) solutions for application-level software and embedded platforms. Work with hardware, embedded software, and system teams to integrate, validate, and test end-to-end signal processing features.

Research and optimize algorithms for performance and resource-constrained deployment; contribute to technical documentation and decision-making across projects.

Experience Level

Mid-level (Experienced). Specific years of experience are not stated.

Responsibilities

The role focuses on algorithm research, implementation, optimization, and cross-functional integration.

• Analyze problem statements and propose algorithmic solutions.
• Research, design, implement, and optimize DSP algorithms.
• Implement and validate algorithms on embedded platforms (microcontrollers, microprocessors, FPGAs).
• Simulate and model signal processing behavior using tools such as MATLAB, Simulink, and Python.
• Integrate algorithms with hardware and system software; participate in end-to-end testing and validation.
• Document methodologies and communicate technical approaches to stakeholders.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to meet project milestones.
• Mentor and guide junior engineers and interns in DSP topics.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and experience.

• Strong expertise in traditional DSP: time-series analysis, audio/speech processing, image processing, baseband processing, modulation/demodulation, encoding/decoding.
• Solid foundation in applied mathematics relevant to signal processing.
• Proficient in simulation and modeling using MATLAB, Simulink, and Python.
• Experience implementing signal processing algorithms on embedded platforms (microcontrollers, microprocessors, FPGAs).
• Practical experience applying AI/ML techniques to signal processing problems.

Education Requirements

MS or PhD in Engineering or Computer Science with a focus on Digital Signal Processing is listed as a preference (nice-to-have). No explicit mention of bachelor's-only requirements or a statement about equivalent practical experience appears in the posting.
