As a lead X-Midas DSP engineer at Booz Allen, you’ll oversee a team as they use the latest architectural approaches, DSP packages and frameworks, and open-source resources to overcome your clients’ most difficult challenges. You’ll share your development expertise while you identify and implement system improvements. You’ll lead a team as they code and deliver solutions that support the current architecture and operating environment, as well as guide future functionality and enhancements.
