Strong command over the signals and system (signals’ processing, interference in signals, noise handling, pattern identification and recognition in signals, etc.) with in-depth knowledge of signal and system theories/principles (transformation theories - Z and Laplace, Linear/Non-linear/Continuous/Discrete Time-Invariant System, Fourier analysis of time signals and systems, state space analysis, and random variables and processes, etc.).

2. Extensive practical experience in putting into use prominent modeling theories and methods (probabilistic models, stochastic processes, correlation functions, power spectra, spectral factorization, etc.).

3. Excellent knowledge of Data Science (analytics, machine learning, pattern identification) with proven experience in deep learning methodologies.

4. In-depth knowledge of electrical/power systems with working experience in analyzing, manipulating, and handling power signals.

5. Working knowledge of power electronics and control systems.

6. Strong mathematical modeling skills with proven working experience in conceptualizing and building complex system models.

7. Excellent command of Python programming language.

8. 5+ years of dedicated research experience in the field of signals, systems, and modeling. In the case of exceptionally good candidates, these criteria can be relaxed.

9. A Ph.D. (preferred) with a major in the field of Signals and systems and machine/deep learning with proven research experience in the field of data science, and deep learning with excellent exposure to electrical system modeling, or power signal analysis. For such candidates, the experience gained during their Ph.D. program will be considered as the relevant work experience.

OR

Master with a major in the field of Signals and systems and deep learning/data science/applied mathematics/statistics with proven 3.5+ years experience in the field of deep learning, data science, electrical system modeling, or power signal analysis.

OR

Bachelor's degree in the relevant fields (machine learning or electrical/electronics engineering or mathematics/statistics) with 5+ years of dedicated and proven research experience in the field of data science, and deep learning with excellent exposure to electrical system modeling, or power signal analysis.

10. Willingness to work in a fast-paced start-up environment.
