Job Description

About the role

  • We are seeking a Senior PHY Algorithm Engineer to join our team and contribute to the
    development and delivery of state-of-the-art algorithmic solutions integrated into the company’s
    products. The successful candidate will have hands-on experience designing and developing
    algorithms intended for implementation on dedicated hardware accelerators, CPUs, GPUs, and
    vector DSPs. In this role, you will be responsible for the development, optimization, and long-
    term support of high-performance DSP algorithm pipelines. You will work closely with Digital
    Front-End design, verification, and embedded DSP software teams throughout the full algorithm
    development lifecycle. You will support silicon bring-up and end-to-end system integration,
    including data analysis and validation, working closely with cross-functional teams to ensure
    robust, production-ready solutions.

What you'll do

  • Research, design, and develop advanced signal processing algorithms for sensing
    applications
  • Define, document, and maintain algorithmic specifications and technical documentation
  • Perform fixed-point analysis and modeling to support efficient HW and SW
    implementations
  • Develop and execute end-to-end algorithm pipeline simulations using MATLAB and/or
    Python
  • Conduct algorithm performance evaluation and validation at both block and system levels
    within simulation environments
  • Optimize platform and HW architectures with a focus on effective HW/SW partitioning
  • Collaborate closely with front-end design, verification, architecture, SW, and system
    teams throughout the development lifecycle

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a closely related field
  • Minimum of 5 years of experience in algorithm development, spanning concept,
    modeling, and implementation, for signal processing and/or advanced communication
    systems
  • Proficiency in Python, MATLAB, and C/C++ for the development, integration, and
    validation of algorithms within end-to-end DSP pipelines
  • Demonstrated expertise in fixed-point design and implementation of computationally
    intensive algorithms, including the delivery of bit-exact and cycle-accurate fixed-point
    models and detailed specifications
  • Proven experience collaborating with Digital Front-End designers, verification engineers,
    and embedded DSP software developers, including the generation of test vectors to
    enable bit-exact algorithm implementations in RTL and embedded software
  • Strong analytical, debugging, and problem-solving capabilities
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • A collaborative team-oriented mindset with the ability to work effectively across
    multidisciplinary engineering teams

Preferred Qualifications

  • MSc or PhD in Electrical Engineering, or a closely related field
  • Experience in algorithm development and data analysis across application domains such
    as automotive systems, IoT, robotics, and multimodal sensor platforms
  • Strong foundation in signal processing, including spectrum analysis, filter design,
    estimation and detection theory, and optimization techniques
  • Experience developing computer vision and machine learning algorithms, including
    clustering, tracking, classification, and 3D point-cloud processing
  • Proven experience porting and optimizing DSP algorithms for dedicated HW accelerators
    and heterogeneous CPU/DSP/GPU architectures, with particular emphasis on radar and
    LiDAR sensor applications

Benefits (subject to location and local regulations)

  • Competitive salary and equity 
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage 
  • 401(k) retirement plan 
  • Flexible vacation and time-off policy 
  • Collaborative, fast-paced, and inclusive work environment 
  • Opportunity to work on cutting-edge technologies with a highly cross-functional team
