Signal Processing Engineer

Signal Processing Engineer About CoVar CoVar is a small AI/ML R&D software company in Durham, NC, that uses artificial intelligence to solve problems that matter. We develop AI/ML tools to help the DoD detect enemies and threats, help biomedical researchers find new cures for diseases, and help monitor machinery to prevent injuries and environmental catastrophes. We are passionate engineers, dedicated to pushing the bounds of what AI/ML can do in the real world. About this position You will help CoVar develop signal processing algorithms and software to solve real-world customer problems. You will develop novel and advanced algorithms for sense making and sensor decision making for applications in the RF domain to include detection, localization, classification, tracking and EW. You will design and implement simulations for these RF applications as well as evaluate results on real world data. You will have the opportunity to present your work to high-level customers in the DoD and in the industry. The position includes opportunities to publish novel work in both classified and unclassified settings.
