What is a DSP algorithm engineer?

A DSP Algorithm Engineer designs, develops, and optimizes digital signal processing algorithms for applications like audio processing, communications, and control systems. They use mathematical models, simulation tools, and programming languages like MATLAB and C/C++ to implement and refine algorithms. Their work involves analyzing signal characteristics, improving performance, and ensuring real-time processing efficiency.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a DSP algorithm engineer, and why are they important?

To thrive as a DSP Algorithm Engineer, you need strong expertise in digital signal processing theory, algorithm development, and proficiency in programming languages such as C/C++, MATLAB, or Python, often supported by a degree in electrical engineering or a related discipline. Familiarity with signal processing libraries, real-time operating systems, and tools like MATLAB/Simulink is highly valuable, along with experience in algorithm optimization and simulation. Strong analytical thinking, communication skills, and the ability to work collaboratively with multidisciplinary teams set outstanding candidates apart. These competencies are crucial for designing efficient signal processing solutions, integrating them into real-world products, and effectively communicating complex ideas.

What types of projects and daily tasks can I expect as a DSP algorithm engineer?

As a DSP Algorithm Engineer, your daily tasks will typically involve designing, implementing, and optimizing digital signal processing algorithms for various applications such as audio, communications, or embedded systems. You'll collaborate closely with hardware engineers, software developers, and product managers to translate customer requirements into technical solutions, perform simulations and validations, and troubleshoot algorithm performance. Common challenges include balancing computational efficiency with accuracy and adapting algorithms to run on resource-constrained devices. This role offers opportunities to continuously expand your expertise by working with the latest signal processing techniques and tools, and it often provides a pathway to more specialized or leadership positions in algorithm development or system architecture.

Job description

About Arycs Technologies
At Arycs Technology, we believe AI infrastructure must scale within realistic power and integration limits. Our systems are engineered for deployment in real networks — not theoretical environments. We prioritize architectural efficiency over hardware multiplication, enabling capacity growth through technology innovation rather than system complexity. Performance and energy efficiency are not trade-offs; they are co-designed outcomes.
Headquartered in Los Gatos, California, with operations in Cleveland, Ohio and Maynard, Massachusetts, Arycs Technologies operates at the intersection of silicon photonics, coherent DSP, and scalable semiconductor manufacturing.
Our geographic presence supports both technology innovation and commercial execution, positioning Arycs Technologies as a key contributor to the advancement and broader adoption of coherent optical technologies.
About the role
As the System Engineer of Coherent Optical DSP and Transceivers, you will join a small team and play a pivotal role in the design, development, testing, and validation of optical transceivers for use in datacom and telecom 
networks.

Arycs Technologies is looking for a subject matter expert who will work closely with cross-functional 
teams, including the digital signal processing (DSP) ASIC and optical transceiver design teams to ensure that the product meets the industry standards and our customers’ requirements.

The focus will be on innovating and improving the DSP algorithms to optimize the performance and lower power consumption of the coherent optical DSP ASICs and the optical transceivers.
Job Overview:

  • Work as a key member of the DSP ASIC system engineering team to innovate, develop and validate system-level models of coherent DSP algorithms (both in floating-point and fixed-point arithmetic), and analog RF and optical devices housed in our optical transceivers.
  • Evaluate performance of optical transceivers utilizing system-level models through simulations in various fiber transmission conditions to ensure product meets system requirements.
  • Develop specifications and support documents for all simulation components and environments including characterization and validation plans.
  • Collaborate with the DSP ASIC team at large in implementation and verification of the DSP algorithms to create optimized DSP ASICs.
  • Proactively identify and implement improvements in the designs of all optical transceiver components to optimize performance and to reduce power consumption and the cost of our products.

Requirements:
• Advanced degree in Electrical Engineering, System Engineering, Physics or related field.  
• MS with 5+ years or PhD with 3+ years of relevant industry experience. • Experience modeling and simulation of end-to- end digital communication systems using MATLAB, 
  Simulink, Python, or C/C++. • Experience in optical communication components and system modeling and simulation is a plus.  • Demonstrated experience working with high speed optical, RF, and optoelectronic components-lasers, 
  and PICs is preferred.
• Willingness and ability to travel for collaborative meetings with optical transceiver design team members (~5-10%).
