Radar Algorithms Engineer

Description

As a radar algorithms engineer you will develop, deploy, and scale innovative 3D reconstruction algorithms and processing techniques for this unique radar imaging system. In addition to working closely with the rest of the software team, you will be collaborating with the hardware and product teams to rapidly advance image formation techniques from concept to a cloud-based imagery production pipeline.

We will conduct three interviews via Zoom; the typical process takes around 2-4 weeks to complete from start to finish.

• Create tools for predicting the performance of 3D reconstruction algorithms based on image collection geometry
• Collaborate with the product team to understand customer use-cases and translate needs into system-level requirements.
• Generate test plans and methods to validate product quality and ensure it meets end-user expectations
• Develop synthetic aperture radar algorithms to create high-quality 3D data-products. These can take inspiration from techniques in tomography, interferometry, radargrammetry, as well as computer vision algorithms
• Work closely with the rest of the software team to implement and deploy efficient algorithms in our cloud-based image production pipeline

Requirements

• Familiarity with SAR collection geometries and implications (crossing node interferometry, multi-baseline interferometry)
• Advanced degree with emphasis in radar image formation
• Familiarity with multi-dimensional inverse SAR and related optimization methods
• Proficiency in Python, C/C++, or MATLAB
• High levels of self-motivation and personal accountability
• Experience in SAR digital signal processing and algorithm development
• Ability to work in a fast-paced environment under significant time constraints
• Learn new concepts rapidly, completely, and in a self-directed manner
• To conform to U.S. Government space technology export regulations, including the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) you must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident of the U.S., protected individual as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3), or eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State
• Experience deploying radar algorithms into production pipelines
• Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, physics, computer science, or related field
• Familiarity with SAR image formation algorithms
• Familiarity with modern software development practices (version control, code review, continuous integration, etc)
• Familiarity with SAR interferogram processing
• Familiarity with tomographic aspects of SAR and related concepts such as holographic principles, critical baseline, etc
• Excellent teamwork and communication skills
• Familiarity with SAR collection modes and motion compensation concepts

Benefits

You can anticipate competitive pay, with high flexibility between salary and equity-based compensation.
