Junior Signal Processing Engineer

Junior Signal Processing Engineer

As a result of program growth, the Advanced Warfare Technology Division of the Leidos Innovation Center is looking for a Junior Signal Processing Engineer to support remote sensing programs in Beavercreek, OH. The Junior Signal Processing Engineer will work with a multi-disciplined design team (Electrical Engineers, Physicists, Computer Scientists, etc.) to design, develop, simulate, and integrate new algorithms into sensor systems based on given project requirements. The candidate will also have the opportunity to implement algorithms in FPGA-based systems. Finally, this role will support the integration, testing, verification, and documentation of the final products.

Taking direction from your Team or Task Lead, while working in small groups or individually, you will:

• Develop, model, and test algorithms in MATLAB, Python, and/or C/C++
• Analyze, design, simulate, and implement algorithms in hardware descriptor languages (VHDL, Verilog) based on customer requirements and/or MATLAB models
• Analyze results from simulation or real data to identify root causes and trends
• Plan and perform analytical and engineering research, design development, participate in testing, and other technical assignments

At Leidos, we offer competitive benefits including 4 or more weeks Paid Time Off, 11 paid Holidays, 401K with a 6% company match and immediate vesting, Flexible Schedules, Discounted Stock Purchase Plans, Technical Upskilling, Education and Training Support, Parental Paid Leave, and much more. Join us and make a difference in Advanced Warfare Technology!

Basic Qualifications:

• Bachelors of Science in Electrical Engineering, Physics, Computer Science, Mathematics or related fields and relevant experience
• Must be eligible to obtain TS/SCI, active Secret preferred but not required
• US citizenship required
• Experience with tools such as MATLAB, Linux, Python, and languages such as C/C++, Java, etc.
• VHDL, Verilog HDL coding
• Working knowledge of basic signal processing concepts (FFTs, filtering, decimation, interpolation, etc.)
• Working knowledge of scientific programming and algorithm development
• Experience with image and signal processing
• Demonstrated strong oral and written communication skills
• Ability to work in a team environment, as well as independently
• Adaptability to new challenges with a strong motivation to grow and learn in new areas

Preferred Qualifications:

• Working knowledge of computer vision algorithms, parallel programming, and/or sensor physics
• Experience with machine learning, deep learning, and/or GPU programming

At Leidos, we don't want someone who "fits the mold"—we want someone who melts it down and builds something better. This is a role for the restless, the over-caffeinated, the ones who ask, "what's next?" before the dust settles on "what's now."

If you're already scheming step 20 while everyone else is still debating step 2… good. You'll fit right in.
