Salary:
Circa £80,000
Working arrangement:
Hybrid

I’m recruiting on behalf of a leading space technology organisation seeking a Senior DSP Engineer to develop advanced FPGA-based signal-processing solutions for next-generation satellite communications, sensors and space missions.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a multidisciplinary engineering team and work across the full firmware lifecycle, from DSP algorithm design and simulation through to HDL implementation, verification and hardware integration.

The role

As Senior DSP Engineer, you will:

* Design, simulate and implement DSP algorithms for telecommunications and sensing applications.

* Develop FPGA firmware using VHDL and/or Verilog.

* Translate system requirements and interface specifications into robust firmware designs.

* Produce FPGA simulations, test benches and verification plans.

* Support hardware integration, troubleshooting and space-system qualification.

* Maintain and enhance existing firmware products.

* Contribute technical leadership across complex engineering programmes.

Your background

You will ideally have:

* At least five years’ experience implementing signal-processing designs on FPGAs.

* Strong VHDL and/or Verilog development skills.

* Experience simulating, testing and debugging FPGA firmware.

* A degree in engineering, computer science, physics or another quantitative discipline.

* Knowledge of formal configuration-control processes.

Experience with C/C++ for SoC cores or vector processors, Xilinx Versal AI Engines, 5G/LTE systems, or radiation-tolerant FPGA design would be particularly valuable.

The successful candidate will receive a competitive benefits package including private healthcare, income protection, life insurance, pension contributions and hybrid working.
