Job Description

Digital Signal Processing Engineer (Advanced RF Systems)

Do you have experience with signal processing for space-qualified, or terrestrial, systems? Are you looking for a company at the forefront of industry? Then we want you! Come join Halo Nation and be part of the modernization of global defense.

At BlueHalo we provide a full suite of exquisite, space-qualified hardware trusted to fly in the most extreme environments that space presents across GEO, MEO, LEO and cislunar orbits. With hundreds of systems flying in space, our customers turn to BlueHalo when a mission can’t fail.

Our team is expanding to do the big things that have never been done before – the things the nation and the world are counting on us to deliver. Join the transformation and help us make this impact now.

WHAT YOU WILL DO IN THIS ROLE

We are seeking Digital Signal Processing (DSP) Engineers in Albuquerque NM to work on challenging, leading-edge designs of space qualified hardware systems.

On any given day, the selected candidates may be asked to:

• Responsible for the modeling, simulation, and implementation of RF Signal Processing concepts and techniques enabling advanced RF systems for next generation digital communications, beamformed phased array antennas, and electronic warfare.
• Implement real-time signal processing algorithms using state-of-the art processing such as the Xilinx RFSoC or Intel/Altera Direct RF Stratix and Agilex technologies.
• Develop custom compute processing in both FPGA fabric and ARM Core processing; implementing DSP functions such as RF digital filtering, correlation, signal detection and signal parameter estimation.
• Demonstrate expertise with MATLAB, Xilinx System Generator for DSP or other High Level Synthesis tools.
• Hand on testing of RF DSP processing in laboratory and field environments.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to optimize DSP designs for performance, cost-effectiveness, and manufacturability.
• Identify and mitigate technical risks associated with DSP systems.

POSITION REQUIRMENTS

• Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering or related field.
• Five (5) or more years’ of hands-on experience in digital signal processing engineering.
• Experience in DSP design, analysis, and simulation.
• Experience in configuring and using Xilinx hardware primitives (DSP slices) and DSP component tools including the Xilinx FIR and DDS compilers to realize functional DSP designs.

PREFERRED POSITION REQUIRMENTS

• Master’s degree in electrical engineering or related field.
• An active SECRET (or higher) security clearance.
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to convey complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Innovative mindset with a passion for exploring new DSP technologies and methodologies.
• Experience using MATLAB System Generator for DSP with HDL coder on integration on Xilinx RFSoC FPGA is a plus.
