Job Description: An opportunity for a Junior Microwave Instrument Digital & Signal Processing Engineer has arisen within Airbus Defence and Space, Getafe (Madrid) . The selected candidate will join the Microwave Instrument Engineering Team , a cutting-edge multidisciplinary group delivering state-of-the-art payload solutions for space-based remote-sensing and Earth Observation missions. In this role, you will focus on the digital architecture, signal-processing pipeline, and data-flow algorithms that convert raw microwave radiometer measurements into calibrated satellite science data. As an early-career engineer, you will receive structured mentorship and practical training while contributing to both advanced feasibility studies and flight-model implementation phases.



Responsibilities The main tasks of the jobholder will be:

- Digital Architecture Design: Define on-board data-acquisition architectures and processing chains (digital down-conversion, filtering, radiometric calibration, and data compression), tailoring existing digital signal processors or proposing new building blocks.
- DSP Algorithm Development: Implement, optimize, and validate signal-processing algorithms (FFT, matched filtering, noise-reduction, error budgeting) in MATLAB/Python, preparing them for migration to embedded C/C++ or FPGA environments.
- System-L]]>
