Job DescriptionLead the design and implementation of the physical layer (PHY)—waveform, modulation, coding, framing, and synchronisation—from initial architecture to real-time execution. Engineer solutions specifically tailored for challenging jamming scenarios and complex, multi-node long-range link budgets. Own the PHY-side specifications and expose the critical IQ, phase, and timing observables required by the Direction Finding (DF) strand. Define the development guidelines for the strand—including HDL and verification conventions, as well as FPGA build flows. ]]>
You have successfully designed a PHY and brought it onto FPGA/SoC hardware in real time. You are quantitatively sure-footed on synchronisation, estimation, FEC (Forward Error Correction), and link budgets. You have practical experience debugging real radio links against physical hardware. ]]>
Experience with anti-jamming and LPI/LPD (Low Probability of Intercept/Detection) in a tactical context. A professional background at industry leaders. Publicly verifiable PHY implementation evidence (e.g., custom GNU Radio OOT modules or contributions to the RFSoC toolchain). ]]>
