## Description

The candidate selected for this role will primarily support the design, implementation, and optimization of real-time software powering RF seeker capabilities and signal-processing pipelines. The selected candidate will maintain a familiarity with the fielded systems our division supports, investigate cutting-edge RF seeker technologies, and develop studies which educate our customers on seeker technology advancements. These studies will consist of provisional MATLAB modeling, closed-loop simulation, and validation on radar hardware. The selected candidate will work closely with algorithm development engineers to transition prototype algorithms (such as MATLAB/Python models) into robust, maintainable, high-performance software architectures (modern C++) targeted for real-time and embedded environments. You will also participate in closed-loop simulations, HWIL integration, and system validation on radar hardware. The candidate will present progress and findings of these studies to
