Job Description:

Hands‑on Radar Signal Processing Consultant role turning complex radar and EW concepts into working models and simulations.

We’re supporting a long‑standing client in the defence and security sector who are hiring a Radar Signal Processing Consultant to work on advanced radar and Electronic Warfare programmes based just outside Cambridge.

As a Radar Signal Processing Consultant, you’ll be involved in modelling, simulation and analysis of complex systems, using tools such as MATLAB, Simulink and Python. The work focuses on developing proof‑of‑concept models, signal processing algorithms and simulation environments for radar and EW applications with real‑world national impact.

The role is suited to someone who enjoys getting into the detail of difficult technical problems, building models that stand up to scrutiny, and applying signal processing theory to real radar and EW system challenges.

What we’re looking for:

  • Experience in radar or Electronic Warfare modelling and simulation
  • Strong background in signal processing algorithm development and validation
  • Experience with MATLAB, Simulink, Python or similar high‑level languages
  • Understanding of system architecture and complex system interactions
  • A relevant degree in engineering, physics, maths or a related discipline

Additional experience in any of the following areas would be highly desirable:

  • DSP fundamentals including sampling, FFTs, filtering, correlation and convolution
  • Hardware‑in‑the‑loop development for radar or EW systems
  • RF system knowledge, including antennas, front‑end architecture, waveforms or receiver processing
  • Real‑time DSP or FPGA‑based implementation
  • Simulation validation through real‑world measurements or field trials

Candidates with defence, security, radar or Electronic Warfare experience are preferred, though our client is open to applicants from adjacent technical backgrounds if they bring strong modelling, signal processing and problem‑solving skills.

Why consider this?

This client is growing quickly and investing in technically demanding defence and national security programmes. You’ll be given meaningful technical responsibility, work alongside a highly capable peer group, and operate in a collaborative R&D environment with strong scope to develop into adjacent disciplines.

Benefits include a profit‑related bonus, 10% employer pension contribution, private medical cover for you and your dependants, free daily lunch and refreshments, enhanced parental leave, EV leasing, relocation support where applicable, and modern facilities just outside Cambridge.

Due to the nature of the work, you must be eligible for UK security clearance. Please note: sponsorship is not available for this position.
