• Troubleshoot root causes of processing errors and artefacts in image products and find mitigations; optimize processing time toward near-real-time
• Take part in mission design trade-off studies; mentor the team; advise senior management and new business pursuits
What you need
• Degree in Electrical Engineering, Engineering Physics, Math or Physics (or equivalent)
• 12+ years in an engineering environment, including 5+ years on complex signal processing systems (radar, medical imaging, computer vision or similar) and 10+ years in a large product development or systems engineering environment
• Solid grounding in high-speed, high-throughput data analysis and transmission design
• MATLAB, Python or C++
• Clear communicator to technical, sales, executive and customer audiences
• US citizen or permanent resident
