Your passion for signal processing, along with your hands-on experience, will make you an indispensable asset to our team.

Key Responsibilities:

Algorithm Design and Development:
- Design and develop advanced signal processing algorithms for applications in areas such as audio processing, echo processing, noise reduction, beamforming.
- Research and evaluate state-of-the-art signal processing techniques to continually improve system performance.
Embedded Implementation:
- Optimise and implement signal processing algorithms for real-time operation within resource-constrained environments (microcontrollers, FPGAs).
- Ensure code efficiency, robustness, and maintainability while meeting strict performance requirements.
Field Validation:
- Collaborate with the team to design and execute field trials for testing and validating the performance of signal processing algorithms in real-world scenarios.
- Analyse and interpret field data to drive algorithm improvements and system optimizations.
Prototyping and Scripting:
- Create rapid prototypes and simulations in Python to explore algorithm concepts and evaluate feasibility.
- Proficiently utilise Python modules for scientific computing (NumPy, SciPy, Matplotlib, etc.).

Required Qualifications:

Education: Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field with a specialisation in Digital Signal Processing. (Ph.D. preferred). Candidates with a B.Tech and a proven track record of success in signal processing projects are also encouraged to apply.
Experience: Minimum of 5 years of proven experience in DSP algorithm design and development.
Mathematical Foundations: Strong understanding of signal processing principles, including Fourier analysis, filter design, time-frequency analysis, adaptive filtering, statistical signal processing.
Embedded Systems: Expertise in programming embedded systems (microcontrollers, FPGAs) using C/C++, Verilog/VHDL etc.
Python: Extensive hands-on experience with Python and its scientific computing libraries (NumPy, SciPy, Matplotlib).

Highly Desired Skills:

Experience in working with acoustic sensors for audio/sound-related applications.
Knowledge of DSP principles as applied to digital communication (modulation/demodulation, channel coding, equalisation, etc.).
Familiarity with incorporating machine learning techniques into signal processing pipelines.

Personal Attributes:

Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to address complex technical challenges.
Strong collaboration skills and ability to work effectively within a cross-functional team.
Passionate about signal processing with the initiative to learn and explore new concepts.
