Radar Software Engineer C++ (SMU)

Description

The Sensor Processing group builds the complete software for radar systems. Its work covers radar control, scheduling radar transmissions, and processing the digital data stream.

The aim is to detect and classify objects such as aircraft and drones, track them, and show them on an operator console. The architecture is highly modular, supporting robust systems that can evolve. Agile teams build it with a modern toolchain, and they own the architecture, the toolchain and the Agile process, keeping all three up to date.
