Senior Algorithm Engineer - Radar

Position Purpose:
To design, write, and support radar-based computer vision algorithms in the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) and Security domains. The Senior Algorithm Engineer has an active role in development and deployment of radar-based algorithms for use in Image Sensing Systems, Inc.’s products. The Senior Algorithm Engineer is involved in the full life cycle of the algorithms, from inception, design, implementation, testing and field deployment, along with supporting existing products and technologies.

Essential Position Functions:

  • Algorithm design and simulation in the areas of real time vehicle detection, signal processing, noise removal, object detection/tracking, pattern recognition & data mining techniques.
  • Efficient implementation of the algorithms for Windows/DSP-based embedded platforms.
  • Verification & characterization of system performance
  • Analyze system requirements and software to determine feasibility of design within given constraints.
  • Consult with other engineering staff to evaluate interaction between hardware, software, operational and performance requirements of the overall system.
  • Swiftly learn, adapt and incorporate new techniques into ISS’s product lines to align with vision of research and development.
  • Other responsibilities and projects as assigned.

Education and Experience Requirements:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or Computer Science or related or equivalent work experience
