Job description

Omnisight is a fast-growing technology company transforming how cities and agencies manage transportation. Our AI-driven fusion sensors combine radar, vision, and machine learning to deliver next-generation traffic detection and safety intelligence. We are building the future of smart mobility that is safer, smarter, and powered by AI.

The Opportunity

We are seeking a Radar Software Engineer to take ownership of core radar signal processing and tracking software within our sensing platform. You will work hands-on across the full pipeline, from waveform design and detection through tracking and system integration, contributing directly to products deployed at scale. This is a highly applied role focused on robust, real-world performance rather than purely academic research.

What You’ll Do

• Design, implement, and optimize radar signal processing algorithms, including detection, estimation, and tracking
• Develop and maintain the CFAR-based detection pipelines for mmWave radar systems
• Design and evaluate mmWave radar waveforms while managing tradeoffs between range, Doppler, angular resolution, latency, and compute constraints
• Implement and refine fundamental radar signal-processing algorithms, including pulse compression, Doppler processing, and angle estimation
• Develop and tune multi-target tracking systems, including solutions for Kalman filtering, association and gating algorithms, and clustering techniques
• Collaborate with firmware, computer vision, and systems engineers on sensor fusion and system-level performance
• Deploy, test, and debug radar software on Linux-based embedded systems
• Support field testing and performance analysis using real-world data

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in EE, CE, CS, Applied Mathematics, Physics, or related technical field, or equivalent practical experience in radar systems and signal processing
• Strong knowledge of radar systems, including CFAR detection, mmWave waveform design, radar signal processing fundamentals, and radar antennas
• Experience with target tracking systems, including Kalman filtering, association algorithms, clustering, and gating
• Experience working in Linux environments, including basic system administration
• Proficiency in statically typed programming languages, preferably C++ and/or C#
• Ability to work independently, reason through ambiguous problems, and deliver production-quality code

Preferred Qualifications

• Master’s degree in a related field is a plus
• Experience with real-time or embedded radar systems
• Experience deploying algorithms on edge or resource-constrained hardware
• Familiarity with sensor fusion using radar and vision
• Background in transportation, ITS, or outdoor sensing systems
• Experience supporting deployed systems and field data analysis

Location

Open to candidates anywhere in the continental U.S. This role is in-office/hybrid for candidates based in the Charleston, SC area and fully remote for candidates in all other locations.

Why Join Omnisight

At Omnisight, you will be part of a passionate, mission-driven team redefining what is possible in transportation technology. If you are motivated by growth, innovation, and the opportunity to make an impact, this is where you want to be.
