Signal Processing Engineer; C++​/RF – TS​/SCI

Role

Signal Processing Software Engineer (C++ / RF Systems)

Fort Meade, Maryland

Advanced Engineering Team supporting U.S. Defense & Intelligence Missions

We are partnering with a highly technical engineering team working on mission‑critical systems at the intersection of signal processing, RF systems, and satellite communications within the U.S. defense and intelligence space.

With increasing demand across advanced communications platforms and real‑time systems, they’re scaling their team to develop next‑generation capabilities used in operational environments.

This is a hands‑on software engineering role focused on developing high‑performance C++ applications for complex signal processing and satellite communication systems.

You’ll be working on real‑time systems, designing and implementing algorithms under strict performance and resource constraints, and contributing to systems that operate in mission‑critical environments.

• 5+ years of experience in software development with a focus on systems or performance‑critical applications.
• Strong programming experience in C++.
• Experience with signal processing, RF systems, or satellite communications.
• Ability to design and implement complex algorithms with performance and timing constraints.
• Experience working with real‑time systems and performance optimisation.
• Familiarity with automated testing frameworks and debugging complex systems.
• Experience with Dev Ops environments (Docker, Kubernetes, VMware) is a plus.
• Familiarity with message queues and communication protocols is desirable.

Please apply only if you are a U.S. citizen with an active TS/SCI clearance and Full Scope Polygraph.
