Spectrum Sensing Engineer

We are seeking a proactive and detail-oriented Senior RF Signal Processing Software Engineer to contribute to the successful development of our electromagnetic warfare product line. This role is critical to transforming our radar systems into sensing systems that detect, classify, and geolocate all RF emissions in the environment using advanced digital signal processing (DSP) algorithms. The Senior Engineer will contribute to the Spectrum Sensing Team in the development of algorithms, modeling, software integration, and the execution of field demonstrations of the technology. They will collaborate closely with Business Development (BD), Production, and other Engineering teams.Responsibilities:Develop, implement, and refine advanced DSP algorithms to detect, identify, and track RF signalsIntegrate and test signal processing software with underlying RF/SDR hardware and host processing platformsMinimum Requirements:B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics, Computer Science, or a related field5+ years of relevant development experienceExperience working with RF sensing systems (active or passive) and advanced signal processing techniquesExperience working with recorded I/Q data and generating synthetic I/Q dataStrong theoretical understanding and practical application of signal processing techniques (e.g., FFT analyses, matched filtering, cyclostationary analysis)Proficiency in programming languages like Python, C++, or MATLAB for algorithm development and integration into current code baseExperience with software defined radios (SDR) and associated signal processing toolkitsStrong verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to clearly document technical details and present findingsMust be able to work on-site 3-5 days per week in Hawthorne CA or Washington D.C.This role will require periodic travel, up to 30%U.S. citizenAbility to obtain and maintain a U.S. security clearancePreferred Requirements:M.S. degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics, Computer Science, or a related fieldCurrent U.S. security clearanceExpertise in cyclostationary signal processingDemonstrated experience identifying commercial and non-commercial communication waveformsExpertise with electromagnetic spectrum sensing and classification techniques (e.g., machine learning for signal classification)Experience implementing signal processing algorithms for tactical applicationsExperience implementing signal processing algorithms on RFSOC hardwareExperience with agile development tools like JIRA and ConfluenceExperience in DoD, military, or other Government environment performing in a related subject area (e.g., engineering, computer science, etc.) in a fast-paced, dynamic environmentWhy CHAOS?Health Benefits: Medical, dental, and vision benefits 100% paid for by the companyAdditional benefits: 401k (+ 50% company match up to 6% of pay), FSA, HSA, life insurance, and moreOur Perks: Free daily lunch, No meeting Fridays, unlimited PTO, casual dress codeCompensation Components: Competitive base salaries, generous pre-IPO stock option grants, relocation assistance, and (coming soon!) annual bonusesTeam Growth: 350 employees and counting across 5 global officesSalary Range: $180,000 - $230,000The stated compensation range reflects only the targeted base compensation range and excludes additional earnings such as bonus, equity, and benefits.
