## Description

We are looking for a Senior Signal Processing Engineer to join our rapidly growing team in Costa Mesa, CA. In this role, you will lead the development of discrimination algorithms for EO/IR sensors that classify and distinguish threats from decoys, debris, and clutter in real-time operational environments.

Your responsibilities will include designing and implementing signal processing pipelines, developing advanced decision logic, analysing and optimising algorithms for EO/IR sensor phenomenology, and building physics-based models to validate discrimination performance.

You will also collaborate with software engineers to transition discrimination algorithms from prototypes to production code, mentor engineers, and provide technical leadership on signal processing approaches and best practices.

As a Senior Signal Processing Engineer, you will engage with customers and stakeholders to understand mission needs, present discrimination solutions, and demonstrate system performance.

### Required Qualifications

- Currently possesses and is able to maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance

- Bachelor's degree or higher in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Applied Mathematics, Physics, Computer Science, or a related technical field

- 8+ years of experience designing, implementing, and testing signal processing algorithms for EO/IR sensors or similar sensing modalities in aerospace or defense systems

- Proven expertise in EO/IR sensor phenomenology including noise characteristics, detection theory, SNR analysis, resolution limits, and environmental effects

- Strong proficiency with signal processing techniques including detection algorithms, filtering, and measurement generation from sensor data

- Proficiency in algorithm development and coding with demonstrated experience transitioning algorithms to production environments

- Experience with modelling, simulation, and testing workflows including physics-based modelling, Monte Carlo analysis, or hardware-in-the-loop environments

- Demonstrated technical leadership experience with ability to mentor engineers and drive technical direction
