SAR Systems Engineer at PierSight | Jobs at PierSight Bangalore / Ahmedabad, India May 14th, 2025 Job Title: Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Systems Engineer Location: Ahmedabad / Bangalore Employment Type : Full-time Experience: 0-3 years Role Overview: We are seeking a driven Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Systems Engineer with a strong background in digital signal processing (DSP) and radar algorithm development. The ideal candidate should be skilled in MATLAB, Python, and C/C++, and have a solid understanding of radar signal chains. While prior experience in SAR systems is not required, a deep interest and foundational knowledge of radar principles are essential. Exposure to communication systems, especially encoder/decoder design and baseband processing, is a strong plus. Key Responsibilities: Design, implement, and simulate radar signal processing algorithms including: o Pulse compression o Range-Doppler processing o CFAR detection o SAR image formation techniques (Range-Doppler, Omega-K, TDBP) Analyse raw radar data for calibration, artifact reduction, and performance validation. Develop and optimize radar algorithms using MATLAB, Python, and C/C++. Contribute to SAR system simulation and processing pipelines, including motion compensation and resolution enhancement. Required Skills and Qualifications: Bachelor s or master s degree in electrical engineering, Signal Processing, or a related field. Strong theoretical understanding and hands-on experience in digital signal processing. Proficiency in MATLAB, Python, and C/C++ for algorithm development and validation. Solid understanding of radar system concepts such as SNR, ambiguity functions, time-frequency analysis. Familiarity with range-Doppler radar systems or any pulse-based radar architecture. Preferred Skills: Exposure to SAR systems: signal chain, motion compensation, autofocus, or image formation techniques. Familiarity with radar data post-processing, denoising, and resolution enhancement techniques. Exposure to data analysis of SAR or radar-like systems (e.g., RF simulation tools or synthetic datasets). Understanding of basic RF and antenna principles relevant to SAR performance (e.g., bandwidth, aperture, swath). Why Join Us: Contribute to next-generation SAR systems for remote sensing, aerospace, and defense. Collaborate with a world-class R&D team working on challenging radar and sensing problems. Opportunity to innovate at the intersection of radar signal processing, sensing systems, and intelligent data analysis.
