Innovation Developer

Job Title: Audio DSP Developer / Algorithm Developer

Location: United Kingdom

Outside IR35 Contract

Rate: To be discussed

Duration: minimum 12+ months (initial 6 months)

We want to speak to experienced DSP engineers with prior experience in the defence space. You'll ideally have prior SC clearance, but at the very least be a sole British national. Our client is a leader within their space with offices around the UK mainly within the north and south-west of the country.

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.

Veterans in Machine Learning: A Military‑to‑Civilian Pathway into AI Careers

Introduction Artificial intelligence is no longer relegated to sci‑fi films—it underpins battlefield decision‑support, fraud detection, and even supermarket logistics. The UK Government’s 2025 AI Sector Deal forecasts an additional £200 billion in GDP by 2030, with machine‑learning (ML) engineers cited as the nation’s second most in‑demand tech role (Tech Nation 2024). The Ministry of Defence’s Defence AI Strategy echoes that urgency, earmarking £1.6 billion for FY 2025–28 to embed ML into planning, logistics, and autonomous systems. If you have ever tuned a radar filter, plotted artillery trajectories, or sifted sensor data for actionable intel, you have already worked with statistical modelling—the backbone of machine learning. This guide shows UK veterans how to reframe military experience for ML roles, leverage MoD transition funding, and land high‑impact positions building the models shaping tomorrow’s defence and commercial landscapes.
