## Description

CX2 is seeking a highly skilled Signal Processing Engineer to join its growing team. The ideal candidate has solid fundamentals in design, implementation, and testing of signal processing techniques using MATLAB, Python, and other existing frameworks. Experience in Defense is preferred.

This role requires an onsite presence in El Segundo, CA HQ; a remote work environment is not considered for this opportunity.

### Key Responsibilities

- Design, characterize, and deliver digital signal processing algorithms such as channelizers, frequency agile detection, adaptive filters, MIMO, wideband detectors, and other algorithms related to signal sorting.

- Write and contribute to existing Python repositories using CUDA and/or PyTorch.

- Own requirements, ICDs, and verification from concept through delivery.

- Stay current with advances in signal processing techniques and associated technologies, adaptive beamforming, RF machine learning, and resilient PNT for GPS-denied operations.

### Required Qualifications

- Master's Degree in Electrical, Computer, or Systems Engineering or related field with graduate study emphasis in Signal Processing; OR a Bachelor's Degree in an Engineering discipline with 3-5 years of relevant working Signal Processing Experience.

- Intermediate to advanced proficiency in Python.

- Willingness to support critical test events that occasionally require extended hours/weekends.

- Ability to obtain and maintain a security clearance.

- Must be a U.S. Person due to required access to U.S. export-controlled information or facilities.

### Bonus Points

- PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.

- 5+ years of experience with EW subsystems and payloads.

- Experience with EA/ECM technique design (deception, Digital RF Memory, coherent/non-coherent techniques).

- Comms system design (LPI/LPD, Waveform-of-Interest exploitation).

- RF machine learning for emitter ID, modulation/classification, anomaly detection, PDW creation.

- Tools experience: ADS/AWR/SystemVue, MATLAB/Simulink, Python (NumPy/SciPy), GNU Radio/SDR (USRP/RFSoC), VITA-49; HDL/firmware experience also helpful (Vivado/Quartz/Libero).

- Active Secret or ability to obtain and maintain; TS/SCI eligibility preferred.

- Field work: supporting periodic travel for flight tests and customer demonstrations/support.

- Mindset: Builder-tester who loves first-principles RF, rapid lab iteration, and getting hardware flying fast.

### What We Offer

- Competitive salary, stock options, and benefits, including health, vision, and dental.

- 401K enrollment at 90 days.

- Generous PTO + most Federal Holidays observed.

- Collaborative and inclusive work environment.

- Access to the latest tools and technologies.

- High levels of responsibility and autonomy.

- Professional growth and development opportunities.

- Access to the hardest problems in electronic warfare.
