About The Position

Radiant is seeking a Senior Embedded Engineer with a strong focus on digital signal processing (DSP) to lead the development of signal processing and data acquisition architectures for reactor control systems, with a long-term path toward space reactor applications. You will serve as the technical authority for real-time signal processing, owning the design and deployment of DSP pipelines—from requirements definition and algorithm development through implementation, validation, and deployment.

Requirements

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
5+ years of experience in DSP, including filtering, signal conditioning, estimation, real-time signal analysis, and algorithm deployment.
Strong proficiency in embedded C/C++
Experience with real-time operating systems (RTOS).
Experience with FPGA design and implementation, including HDL (VHDL/Verilog) coding, and simulation.
Understanding of analog and mixed-signal systems, including ADC/DAC interfacing, sampling theory, and quantization effects.
Ability to collaborate across multidisciplinary teams, including software, hardware, and systems engineers.

Nice To Haves

Master's degree or higher in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
Familiarity with high-reliability or harsh environments (nuclear, nuclear instrumentation, aerospace, defense, or industrial) and constraints on determinism, latency, and fault tolerance.
Understanding of radiation effects on digital systems and approaches to radiation-tolerant design.
Experience with sensor data and instrumentation systems, including noise characterization, calibration, and signal extraction.

Responsibilities

Develop real-time signal processing algorithms, digital filtering, detection, estimation, and spectral analysis for embedded and FPGA platforms, meeting the determinism, low latency, and fault-tolerance demands of high-reliability nuclear control environments.
Interface with mixed-signal hardware (ADCs/DACs, sensors, instrumentation) to ensure accurate sampling, low-noise signal conditioning, and robust data acquisition.
Partner with software and hardware teams on co-design, translating system-level signal requirements into implementable DSP architectures, serving as the technical authority for signal processing integration.
Define and execute verification plans for DSP algorithms, FPGA simulations, and embedded system validation, including noise characterization and calibration.
