Radar Scientist

https://job-boards.greenhouse.io/tomorrow/jobs/7730648003

*Tomorrow.io is a leading weather intelligence and climate resilience
platform helping organizations and governments make better decisions in a
world of increasing weather volatility. By combining proprietary satellite
technology, advanced AI forecasting models, and actionable analytics,
Tomorrow.io delivers hyper‑local weather insights that protect lives,
strengthen operations, and build climate resilience globally.*

*Our space program is core to this mission. We are building and operating a
weather observation constellation powered by internally developed
software‑defined radars — transforming how atmospheric data is captured and
used worldwide.*

We’re looking for a Radar Scientist focused on *calibration, signal
processing algorithms, and performance validation* across ground and flight
radar payloads. This role owns the *theory, algorithms, and data-level
behavior* of the system, from internal calibration loops to on‑orbit
product generation.

The Radar Scientist will work closely with senior scientists and engineers,
within a team responsible for ensuring key calibration and signal
processing concepts are correctly implemented in the SDR and payload,
ensuring that performance is validated at every development stage
(near-field, far-field, and on‑orbit).

*What You’ll Do*

   - Assist in defining and developing internal radar calibration concepts,
   control, and monitoring
   - Integrate calibration logic with Software Defined Radio (SDR) and
   payload control systems

   - Support near-field and far-field calibration and validation campaigns

   - Define and develop flight radar signal processing algorithms
   - Validate products against models and ground-test data
   - Define control and monitoring parameters for calibration and signal
   processing subsystems

   - Assist in defining on-orbit calibration and validation strategies
   - Analyze early-orbit and routine operations data

   - Translate calibration and signal processing requirements into SDR and
   hardware constraints
   - Provide technical input into test plans, readiness reviews, and flight
   qualification

*What You Bring*

   - MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Physics, Applied Mathematics, or
   similar
   - 2+ years of experience in radar theory and digital signal processing
   - Experience developing and validating calibration algorithms
   (Phased-array calibration is preferred)
   - Proficiency in Python and/or MATLAB
   - Experience working with large, multi-channel radar datasets

   - Experience with SDR-based radar systems (spaceborne or airborne radar
   is preferred)
   - L1/L1a product generation and validation experience is preferred
   - Ability to work effectively within a mixed team of engineers and
   scientists, with respect for different technical perspectives
   - Willingness to move fluidly between theory, simulation, and real
   system behavior
   - Clear technical communication skills, including explaining
   assumptions, limitations, and trade-offs
