Key Responsibilities:

  • Design, develop, and implement digital signal processing algorithms for sonar systems.
  • Analyse and interpret sonar data to improve system performance and accuracy.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate DSP solutions into sonar hardware and software.
  • Conduct testing and validation of DSP algorithms in both lab and field environments.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve issues related to signal processing and system performance.
  • Stay updated with the latest advancements in DSP and sonar technologies.

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
  • Strong background in digital signal processing, particularly in Audio / Sonar.
  • Proficiency in programming languages such as MATLAB, Python, or C/C++.
  • Experience with signal processing tools and software.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
  • Ability to work effectively in a team environment and communicate technical concepts clearly.
  • Knowledge of machine learning techniques applied to signal processing.
  • Familiarity with hardware implementation of DSP algorithms.

Security Requirements:

  • Candidates must be sole British nationals.
  • Ideally, candidates should have prior SC (Security Clearance).

Preferred Skills and Experience:

  • Experience with underwater acoustics and sonar system design.

Candidates with solid acoustic DSP engineer backgrounds will be considered for this role also. It also is worth mentioning that we work with a number of businesses within this space, and that number will only increase. If this role isn't right we almost certainly have another for you.

Due to the nature of work that this client carries out, this role should be considered onsite, which locations will be discussed on the phone when we speak.

Negotiating Your AI Job Offer: Equity, Bonuses & Perks Explained

Artificial intelligence (AI) has proven itself to be one of the most transformative forces in today’s business world. From smart chatbots in customer service to predictive analytics in finance, AI technologies are reshaping how organisations operate and innovate. As the demand for AI professionals grows, so does the complexity of compensation packages. If you’re a mid‑senior AI professional, you’ve likely seen job offers that include far more than just a base salary—think equity, bonuses, and a range of perks designed to entice you into joining or staying with a company. For many, the focus remains squarely on salary. While that’s understandable—after all, your monthly take‑home pay is what covers day-to-day expenses—limiting your negotiations to salary alone can leave considerable value on the table. From stock options in ambitious startups to sign‑on bonuses that ‘buy you out’ of your current contract, modern AI job offers often include elements that can significantly boost your long-term wealth and job satisfaction. This article aims to shed light on the full scope of AI compensation—specifically focusing on how equity, bonuses, and perks can enhance (or sometimes detract from) the overall value of your package. We’ll delve into how these elements work in practice, what to watch out for, and how to navigate the negotiation process effectively. Our goal is to provide mid‑senior AI professionals with the insights and tools to land a holistic compensation deal that accurately reflects their technical expertise, leadership potential, and strategic importance in this fast-moving field. Whether you’re eyeing a leadership role in machine learning at an established tech giant, or you’re considering a pioneering position at a disruptive AI startup, the knowledge in this guide will help you weigh the merits of base salary alongside the potential riches—and risks—of equity, bonuses, and other benefits. By the end, you’ll have a clearer sense of how to align your compensation with both your immediate lifestyle needs and long-term career aspirations.
