Real-Time RF Signal Processing Engineer & Analytics

Harmattan AI; Paris; Sur place; EUR 90 000 - 130 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

Harmattan AI in France is seeking a Signal Processing Engineer within RF Processing & Analytics. You will own the algorithms that turn raw electromagnetic intercepts into an actionable picture of the RF environment — detecting, characterizing, and identifying the emitters around our platforms in contested environments.

You will work across the signals captured by Radar, Radio, and Electronic Warfare modules, building the classification and analytics layer that turns isolated detections into a

Qualifications

• Master's or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Signal Processing, Applied Mathematics, or a related field.
• 3-6 years of RF/radar signal processing experience, ideally with exposure to ELINT, ESM, or SIGINT applications.
• Strong fundamentals in DSP: spectral analysis, filtering, multi-rate processing, statistical/adaptive signal processing.
• Proficiency in Python and/or MATLAB for algorithm prototyping; working knowledge of C/C++ for production-oriented implementation.
• Fluency in English; French is a plus.

Responsabilités

• Signal Detection & Characterization: Build algorithms to detect, deinterleave, and extract parameters (PRI, pulse width, frequency, modulation) from intercepted RF emissions.
• Emitter Classification & Identification: Develop classification pipelines — combining feature-based methods and machine learning — to identify emitter types and match them against threat libraries.
• Electronic Order of Battle: Design the analytics that turn individual detections into a coherent, real-time picture of emitters, tracks, and threat posture.
• AI-Assisted Analytics: Apply machine learning to modulation recognition, anomaly detection, and emitter fingerprinting where it improves classification confidence in dense, contested spectrum.
• Cross-Module Data Fusion: Work with signals captured by Radar, Radio, and Electronic Warfare to build a unified processing pipeline rather than siloed, single-sensor analysis.
• Real-Time Pipeline Engineering: Take algorithms from offline prototyping (MATLAB/Python) to real-time or near-real-time implementation, alongside software and embedded/FPGA engineers.
• Field Validation: Validate detection and classification performance against simulated and real-world RF datasets, in lab and field-test conditions.
