Standard Job Description The Silicon Solutions team of Lockheed Martin Space is building the best SOC team in the world and are seeking a highly talented and strategically-thinking leader who has a passion for technology, project management and people. As a Signal Processing Engineer, you will: Design, develop, and verifycomplex DSP blocks (mixers, re-samplers, channelizers, DUC/DDC, etc.) on embedded processors, ASICs, FPGAs, and Versal/Polarfire SOCs. Serve as the technical authority for signal processing architecture, ensuring each block meets performance, power, and latency targets while satisfying overall system requirements

Influence project planning, schedule, cost, and quality through technical risk assessment and mitigation. Act as the primary technical liaison for multiple programs, translating high level mission needs into concrete signal processing implementations. The information below reflects the standard job description for this position: Researches, designs, develops and verifies signal and image collection systems, and defines and develops processing and dissemination computer algorithms.

Develops requirements analysis, sub-system architectures, and integrates new signal and image processing technology systems. Designs, develops and analyzes systems and algorithms for the extraction of information from signal and image sensors. Technologies applied include: remote sensing; detection and estimation theories; morphological processing; speech processing; neural networks; electromagnetic and acoustic effects on signals; and implementation of signal processing with advanced computer architectures.

Basic Qualifications B.S. (or higher) in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related discipline, or equivalent experience. Proven experience designing, debugging, and verifying digital signal processing algorithms

Demonstrated success leading DSP focused projects or technical initiatives. Desired Skills DSP Algorithm Implementation Experience implementing mixers, resamplers, channelizers, digital upconverters (DUC), and digital downconverters (DDC) in ASIC, FPGA, or SOC/Versal/Polarfire devices. Software Defined Radio (SDR) waveform and protocols Ability to map algorithms to programmable logic, hard macros, or optimized software kernels.

Modeling & Simulation Proficiency with MATLAB and/or C/C++ for signal chain modeling (filter design, FFT/IFFT, ADC/DAC, etc.). Skilled at translating models into production ready, real-time code. System Level Understanding Knowledge of space system architectures, CONOPs, and requirements flow down

Ability to evaluate how DSP blocks impact overall system latency, throughput, and power budgets. Proficient in AI prompting as it applies to this position and practice.
