We are looking for students graduating in 2022 with a relevant academic degree or research experience, who are keen to start gaining experience in the industry.
Please see our other vacancies if you are available for an immediate start.
What we can offer
You will be part of the Signal Processing and Artificial Intelligence Department within the Wireless and Digital Services Division. Examples of projects we have worked on in the past are:
ultra-reliable communications for satellites
IP block acceleration of Voice Activity Detection using custom in-house DSP cores,
map based indoor navigation using sensor fusion,
next generation commercial radio receiver design,
development of the communication system for a fleet of moving bots in a challenging indoor environment.
Projects can start off as small, rapid studies and progress towards large multi-disciplinary systems which involve 50 engineers and more. Our work engages with a broad range of industries and applications but the underlying premise is of developing innovative and bespoke systems that cannot be bought off the shelf.
We are a nurturing team, and though not a formal graduate scheme you will be supported throughout to develop your career in the direction you want, with mentoring and training provided.
What you can bring
You’ll have the opportunity to work on a range of projects, each with their own distinct set of challenges. You’ll be able to get involved with everything from first-principles thinking and research through to the design, development and deployment of live systems – utilising knowledge and practical experience attained from your degree.

- Good software skills and experience in programming
- Strong mathematical aptitude and intuition
- A passion for engineering and technology
- An imaginative and inquisitive mind and eagerness to learn new skills
In addition, any experience of the following would be helpful, but certainly not necessary:
- Signal processing techniques and transforms (digital filters, Fourier analysis, z-transforms, matrix transforms etc.)
- Experience in data analysis/modelling using languages such as Python or MATLAB
- C or other low-level language
- Designing and training deep neural networks
- Experience working with embedded hardware and tool chains
