STR
Senior Embedded Systems Engineer
STR, Dayton, Ohio, United States, 45444
About the Team:
The Electronic Warfare and Novel Capabilities Group (EWNC) within the STR Sensors Division is at the forefront of developing advanced signal processing algorithms and prototyping systems for next-generation radar and electronic warfare technologies.
The EWNC group fosters a culture of innovation and collaboration. We collaborate with a dynamic group of research engineers across STR, academic researchers, and industry partners to develop practical and effective solutions to RF sensing and counter-sensing challenges. Together, we're dedicated to tackling some of the toughest problems faced by our national security-focused clients.
If you're seeking an opportunity to apply your deep technical knowledge and creativity to make a lasting impact in national security, we invite you to join us.
The Role:
As an Embedded Systems Engineer ,
you will work with the program manager to create and lead a technical team that design, implement, and test embedded systems software for advanced real-time signal processing applications for sonar, radar, electronic warfare (detection, protection, jamming, and spoofing).
What you will do:Lead and conduct research to develop and implement embedded systems software for advanced real-time signal processing applicationsLead proposal efforts by providing critical technical input, driving efforts to completion, and striving to produce a high-quality, cohesive end productWork with customers to understand their needs, develop innovative solutions, and present solutions to technical and non-technical audiencesPotential travel to customer meetings and/or data collections and experiments is expectedWho you are:
Ability to obtain a security clearance and eligibility to support special access programs, for which U.S. citizenship is required by U.S. GovernmentBS, MS, or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Applied Mathematics, Physics, or a related technical discipline0-5+ years of relevant work experience depending on degree (BS with 5+ years experience, MS with 3+ years of experience, or PhD)Demonstrated experience leading the development of embedded systems software for advanced real-time signal processing applicationsFamiliar with rapid prototyping design methodologies and open architecturesProficient in C, C++, or similar real-time embedded programming languagesComfortable using Python and/or MATLAB programming languagesExperience developing software with GNU/Linux toolchains using open source softwareExperience with firmware languages such as VHDL and/or VerilogWillingness to use Agile development process and associated CI/CD toolsWorking knowledge of software design patterns and best practicesUnderstanding of software-hardware interfacing techniques and implementationEnthusiasm to learn new skills and a desire for developing softwareExcellent verbal and written communication skillsEven Better:
Active Security Clearance at the Secret or Top Secret (TS) levelExperience with:
Linux kernel level modules and device driver developmentWriting software using a large multi-party code baseHard real-time signal processing applicationsWorking in a laboratory environment using measurement equipment and performing quantitative data analysisDeveloping software using hardware accelerators such as GPUs, DSPs, and FPGAsImplementing software using systems on a chip such as Xilinx MPSoC or RFSoCDeveloping high performance applications using distributed parallel processingDeveloping software using machine learning techniquesReal-time optimization of signal processing algorithms developed in languages like MATLAB or PythonSpecifying target hardwareHigh-level software architecture design
Familiarity with multi-threaded or multi-core real-time operating concepts
Join us and be part of a team that's making an impact at the forefront of technology and innovation. While this role is ideally suited for mid-career to senior engineers, we welcome applications from all candidates that feel they meet most of the requirements. We have opportunities for talented engineers at all experience levels in Woburn, MA or Dayton, OH.
STR is a growing technology company with locations near Boston, MA, Arlington, VA, near Dayton, OH, Melbourne, FL, and Carlsbad, CA. We specialize in advanced research and development for defense, intelligence, and national security in: cyber; next generation sensors, radar, sonar, communications, and electronic warfare; and artificial intelligence algorithms and analytics to make sense of the complexity that is exploding around us.
STR is committed to creating a collaborative learning environment that supports deep technical understanding and recognizes the contributions and achievements of all team members. Our work is challenging, and we go home at night knowing that we pushed the envelope of technology and made the world safer.
STR is not just any company. Our people, culture, and attitude along with their unique set of skills, experiences, and perspectives put us on a trajectory to change the world.
