Job Description

Imagine this... You’re sitting at the intersection of cutting-edge hardware and next-gen software, helping radar systems see what no eye ever could. As a Radar Software Engineer your algorithms cut through noise like a scalpel, extracting mission-critical data from the chaotic battlefield of electromagnetic waves. You’re not just writing code—you’re sculpting precision, designing systems that think faster and see farther. This is where signal processing meets real-world impact.

At Destinus, we are revolutionizing the defense industry with cutting-edge Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Our innovative technologies are designed to meet the unique demands of modern defense operations, delivering unparalleled speed, precision, and cost effectiveness. Destinus partners with government agencies and defense organizations worldwide to provide advanced solutions for mission-critical operations, enabling a new era of efficiency and technological superiority. Join us in shaping the future of defense with groundbreaking aerospace innovations.

 

What You’ll Do

  • Simulate and design algorithms in Python
  •  Implement and optimize radar signal processing algorithms on embedded systems and GPU
  •  Collaborate with hardware and software engineering to ensure smooth integration of firmware and processing algorithms
  • Lead studies on implementing a distributed compute architecture
  • Implement a positioning feature
  • Implement a communication channel
  • Solve optimization problems (e.g. antenna arrays)
  • Write clean, maintainable, and well-documented code

What You’ll Need

  • Proficiency in Python for signal processing and data analysis
  • Proficiency in C++
  • Experience with at least one of pytorch (preferred), tensorflow or numpy / scipy
  • Deep understanding of digital signal processing signal conditioning, parameter estimation
  • Experience with software defined radio
  • Experience with performance profiling tools
  • Deep understanding of Linux device drivers (FPGA) is a plus
  • Familiarity with Verilog is a plus

 

Who You Are

You have a strong grasp of radar signal theory and instinctively navigate both time and frequency domains. You're driven by the challenge of optimizing algorithms for performance, accuracy, and robustness, and you excel at transforming complex, noisy signals into actionable, reliable outputs. Comfortable working close to the hardware, you understand the intricacies of system integration and thrive in collaborative environments. Your ability to communicate effectively across multidisciplinary teams ensures smooth coordination between hardware and software, and you perform at your best in settings that demand both high precision and rapid iteration.
