Technical Research Associate – Software
Location:	Cincinnati, Ohio
Description:	The technical research software associate will participate as a team member to develop cutting-edge signal and image processing software. Primarily duties consist of working closely with senior level researchers, aiding them in the implementation and testing of algorithms. Algorithms will be prototyped using The MathWorks tools. Algorithms will be implemented on both embedded systems and shared memory/distributed computing platforms. This job will require the ability to work at the assembly level of various processors. Candidate must be able to effectively interface with the customer for the purpose of requirements identification and routine communications on project status. The job will also require the ability to work on several projects/tasks simultaneously. Some domestic travel is likely. SDL uses The MathWorks tools extensively to develop cutting edge solutions to our customers' research problems.

Coop Position: Junior Technical Associate- Electrical Engineering
Location:	Cincinnati, Ohio
Education:	Must be currently enrolled in as an Electrical Engineering undergraduate student.
Description:	Have you ever wanted to solve real-world problems and impact your surroundings? At SDL, Coop students get a chance to do just that. SDL offers opportunities to make a difference in a wide range of fields, including medical, military and commercial. Coops in the past have worked on projects with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) on a cure for diabetes via the use of medical image processing and pattern recognition. Other coops have worked on a projects for the military, including active-noise cancellation and ultra-sonic communication devices. In the commercial field, past projects include work on underwater communication devices for scuba divers, design of analog signal-conditioning boards for next generation flow-meters, software design for electro-magnetic devices, and work with steel producers to improve coating of steel via use of magnets and lasers. The tasks performed by coop students vary and are based on the individual’s skills, interests, knowledge, and aptitude. SDL has a long history of working with coop students to help them achieve their professional goals. Typically coop students work closely with one of SDL’s researchers (many of whom have PhDs in an engineering discipline) to help implement the cutting edge technology. Coop students are constantly challenged to learn new technology. The general types of activities that coops will be involved in include the design and construction of electronic circuits, software and test fixtures. Experience with C/C++ Matlab and Simulink programming will be helpful. Additional activities include conducting testing and data analysis, interacting with vendors to select and purchase parts, interacting with customers and miscellaneous office duties.

The SDL Coop Program :

Sheet Dynamics, Ltd. (SDL) is centrally located in the Hamilton County Business Center in Norwood, Ohio, close to downtown Cincinnati. SDL provides a set of software tools and services that help its customers create the complex controls and digital signal processing software at the heart of many of today's latest products. Most of the services provided by SDL are Research and Development oriented, however, it is "directed R&D," focused on solving real world problems and improving products and processes.

SDL is a small, growing company (13 employees as of March 2006). Half of SDL’s associates have advanced degrees (5 Ph.D. and 3 MS). SDL has a long history of working with coop students and is intimately familiar with the program. One the SDL’s founders is a graduate of the UC coop program. This is an opportunity for the right person to "get in on the ground floor" with a dynamic, growing high-tech company where you can have an impact on the future of the organization and the future of your career. SDL's business plans are expected to result in broadened opportunities within the company for R&D, design, marketing, and project management oriented personnel.
