Eikon - Radar Software Engineer/C++ Developer (Huntsville, AL/Hybrid)

The Eikon Research team is expanding, and we are currently seeking a Radar Software Engineer to join our team in Huntsville, Alabama or remote and coming on site periodically. This is an exciting and cutting edge opportunity to work with radar designs and build something new.

The ideal candidate will offer design, development, and improvement of software for our family of ground-based radar systems. The successful candidate will take software designs/requirements and translate them into clear, well-documented, code. A strong understanding of C++ language fundamentals, computer networking, and parallel processing paradigms is required.

The radar software engineer duties will include, but not limited to:

• Develop software implementations of radar algorithms, from low-level radar signal processing to high-level tracking algorithms. Implementation targets may include virtual machines, embedded systems, etc.
• Develop software to interface with embedded systems, microcontrollers, and FPGAs. Software may include command-line test tools, benchmarks, or other utilities to assist in testing firmware.
• Develop unit and integration tests for new and existing codebases.
• Develop new functionalities using distributed message frameworks and message passing architectures and add functionalities to interact with the radar user interface.
• Develop documentation in-code and in PowerPoint/Word for use in product documentation.
• Develop performance improvements to existing code.
• Participate in Agile development practices including daily standups and sprint planning/reviews.
• Utilize tools such as Git, GitLab, Jira, and Doxygen for code management, issue tracking, Agile planning, and documentation.
• Flexibility to assist on other projects at Eikon as needed. This may include development in other languages (C++/C, Java, MATLAB, JavaScript), participation in software architecture design discussions, documentation, code testing, code reviews, etc.
