Digital Signal Processing (DSP) involves the mathematical interpretations of various information signals in order to improve them. Applications for this technology includes speech recognition, RADAR and biomedicine.
This is a highly specialised and skilled field, and only those with degrees in this area will usually be considered. However, such is the complicated nature of this technology, many recruitment agencies and employers prefer candidates with a Master's degree or a PhD. They will also need to see a demonstrable track record of delivering projects with the use of embedded software design packages and programming languages such as C++.
There are a number of leading software design companies and DSP specialists in the UK that are currently on the look out for candidates of the highest quality. This type of employment opportunity can involve cooperation with designers, testers and programming specialists, so working as part of a team and excellent communication skills are essential.
There is a reasonable demand for DSP engineers in the UK, particularly those with a successful track record in delivering specialised projects. However, a lot of this work involves short-term strategies, so staff vacancies are often on a fixed-term or self-employed basis. Salaries for entry-level positions range from £25,000 to £40,000, but those with experience in management experience and specific experience in key areas can expect to earn double that amount.
