What you’ll do
As a Senior Signal Processing Engineer, you sit at the intersection of our physical and digital layers, translating hardware reality into mathematical clarity. You will work hands-on with the optics, analog, and digital teams to co-optimize the design of our compute engine. You're a strong fit if C/C++ is your primary tool and your background spans environments such as telecom, high-speed sensing, optimal control, signal processing, or related fields.
Required Skills and Experience
-
Experience: Minimum 5 years of experience in relevant industries (telecom, high-speed sensors, optimal control, signal processing, or related fields).
-
Programming: Extensive experience in C/C++ and Python.
-
Education: Major in Mathematics, Physics, or Informatics with deep expertise in numerical analysis, optimization, and mathematical modeling.
-
Systems Modeling: Strong ability to identify and model dominant sources of variability, noise, and distortion using both analytical tools and numerical simulations.
-
Problem Solving: A high level of curiosity and a "first principles" approach to solving non-standard problems in hardware-software co-design.
-
Language: English at a proficient level. French is a plus.
Responsibilities
-
Collaborate with optics, analog, and digital teams to deduce how low-level hardware decisions affect final chip characteristics and AI model performance.
