Job Description
Principal DSP Engineer at Roguebeam Principal DSP Engineer at Roguebeam in Seattle, Washington Posted in about 20 hours ago.
Were early, were growing fast, and the people who join us now will shape both the technology and the company.
The RoleWere looking for a Principal DSP Engineer to set the technical direction for the digital beamforming and radar signal processing at the heart of our phased array systems. As a foundational technical leader, youll help set the direction of both our product and signal-processing roadmap, define the algorithmic architectures that underpin our systems, and establish the modeling and verification culture the team scales on.
Youll work across the full signal pathfrom algorithm concept through real-time implementationpartnering closely with RFIC, antenna, and digital hardware teams. As a principal-level individual contributor, youll be the person others turn to on the hardest signal-processing problems, and the decisions you make will ripple through every product we build.
ResponsibilitiesDevelop digital beamforming algorithms for phased array communications and radar systemsDesign and prototype radar signal processing chainsdetection, Doppler, pulse compression, clutter mitigation, and trackingTake algorithms from concept and modeling through real-time implementation on FPGA/SoC platformsAnalyze performance against system requirements (SNR, dynamic range, angular accuracy, false-alarm and detection rates)Collaborate with RFIC, antenna, and digital hardware teams to co-optimize the array and the processing that drives itSupport lab bring-up, data collection, and over-the-air validation of fabricated systemsDefine algorithmic architectures and lead the most complex and ambiguous processing challengesSet technical direction across the DSP roadmap and influence system-level trade-offs spanning RF, antenna, and digitalEstablish modeling, coding, and verification standards; mentor and elevate the broader teamMinimum QualificationsBachelors degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field10+ years of relevant experience in DSP, radar signal processing, or digital beamforming, with a track record of leading complex algorithms from concept to deployed systemExpert command of signal processing fundamentals: detection and estimation, adaptive filtering, and array processingDeep proficiency in algorithm modeling (e.g., MATLAB or Python) and a strong track record of real-time implementation on FPGA/SoC platformsPreferred QualificationsMSc or PhD with a focus on signal processing, radar, or communicationsExperience with digital beamforming for phased arraysFamiliarity with adaptive beamforming, STAP, MIMO radar, or space-time processingExperience implementing DSP on FPGAs (Verilog/VHDL/HLS) or DSP-capable SoCsBackground bridging algorithm development and real-time embedded implementationExperience with over-the-air test and measured-data validationWhy RoguebeamThis is a rare ground-floor opportunity. Joining a startup at this stage means your work has a direct, visible effect on whether the company succeedsand a corresponding upside as we grow. Because we build the entire system in-house, youll see your algorithms running on real phased arrays and deployed in working systems, not handed off and forgotten.
