Location: Abu Dhabi

PLEASE NOTE: THIS ROLE REQUIRES RELOCATION TO ABU DHABI

Are you a wireless algorithm expert passionate about shaping next-generation waveform and modem technologies? Join a cutting-edge organization in Abu Dhabi that is redefining secure, high-performance communication systems. This is your opportunity to influence the core algorithms that power advanced wireless, tactical, and mission-critical communication platforms.

As an Algorithm Developer, you will lead the design, simulation, optimization, and validation of Layer-1 (PHY) waveform and modem algorithms, collaborating closely with architects, hardware engineers, and system teams to bring innovative communication solutions to life.

Key Responsibilities

Waveform & Algorithm Development

• Develop and optimize advanced waveform algorithms for bandwidth efficiency, SNR performance, interference resilience, and error robustness.
• Design core PHY algorithms including modulation/demodulation, channel estimation, equalization, synchronization, error correction, and frequency offset correction.
• Investigate cutting-edge signal processing techniques to enhance system reliability and performance.

Simulation, Validation & Performance Testing

• Build and execute simulations using MATLAB, Simulink, Python, or equivalent tools.
• Validate algorithms under realistic communication channel models (fading, interference, noise, Doppler).
• Conduct performance benchmarking using metrics such as BER, SNR, throughput, and spectral efficiency.

Hardware Optimization & Integration

• Optimize algorithms for real-time implementation on FPGA, DSP, and ASIC platforms.
• Work closely with waveform architects, hardware teams, and software developers to integrate algorithms into complete modem systems.
• Participate in system-level reviews, troubleshooting, and iterative refinement cycles.

Technical Leadership & Documentation

• Produce high-quality technical documentation, reports, and presentations for both technical and executive stakeholders.
• Mentor engineering teams and contribute to design/code reviews, ensuring best-in-class algorithm development practices.

Requirements

• Masters degree in Electrical Engineering, Telecommunications, Computer Science, or a related field; PhD strongly preferred.
• 7+ years of experience developing algorithms for wireless communication modems (5G, WiFi, WiMAX, SDR, tactical radios, etc.).
• Deep expertise in DSP and PHY-layer algorithm design for single-carrier and multicarrier systems.
• Hands-on experience with waveform optimization and simulation tools (MATLAB/Simulink, Python, C++).
• Experience implementing or optimizing algorithms for FPGA, DSP, or ASIC architectures.
• Strong understanding of communication channel modeling, coding schemes, interference mitigation, and modem performance metrics.
• Demonstrated success working in cross-disciplinary engineering environments.
