We are seeking an experienced Senior DSP Engineer to join our team and help build high-
performance real-time signal processing software across a wide range of hardware architectures.

What you’ll do

-Design and implement DSP algorithms across multiple chip architectures (ARM, VLIW,
SIMD/vector DSPs, and proprietary accelerators).
-Work in tight collaboration with the Algorithm team to refine algorithm definitions,
validate numerical behavior, and support floating-point to fixed-point transitions.
-Develop and optimize performance-critical kernels using chip-specific intrinsics, vector
operations, and low-level optimization techniques.
-Analyze compiler output and optimize generated code through assembly review,
compiler reports, and profiling-driven tuning.
-Build complete DSP processing pipelines and applications in multi-processor / multi-core
environments for real-time embedded systems.
-Optimize system-level performance including compute scheduling, memory/bandwidth
usage, latency budgets, and real-time constraints.
-Debug and root-cause issues related to performance, numerical stability, and real-time
correctness across hardware and software boundaries.
-Collaborate cross-functionally with Algorithm, Architecture, Silicon, Verification, and
Embedded SW teams to ensure correct integration and best system-level performance.
Required Qualifications

-Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
-At least 5 years of hands-on experience implementing DSP algorithms in production
systems
-Proven experience implementing and optimizing DSP software on architectures such as
VLIW and SIMD/vector processors (and/or ARM-based platforms), including
performance-critical kernel development
-Experience with low-level performance optimization techniques, including use of chip-
specific intrinsics and analysis of compiler-generated assembly code
-Experience developing real-time embedded software in multi-core / multi-processor
environments
-Experience working with MATLAB and Python for algorithm development, modeling,
validation, or prototyping
Preferred Qualifications

-Experience with specific DSP platforms and toolchains (e.g., Xtensa, Hexagon, CEVA,
or proprietary VLIW/vector DSP processors)
-Experience implementing high-rate signal processing pipelines for sensor or perception
systems (radar, lidar, camera, audio, or similar)
-Strong familiarity with RTOS environments, real-time scheduling, and synchronization
primitives
-Understanding of SoC-level integration topics such as memory hierarchy, DMA engines,
cache behavior, and accelerator interfaces
-Experience
