Job Description

Define and own the end-to-end GNSS receiver software architecture, including acquisition, tracking, measurement engine, navigation, and positioning stack.

Lead architectural decisions for low-power, high-performance GNSS chipsets, balancing performance, power, and silicon constraints.

Translate product requirements into scalable, modular, and maintainable software architectures.

Drive design trade-offs across algorithm complexity, hardware acceleration, and system constraints.

Design and optimize advanced algorithms for GNSS acquisition and tracking (multi-constellation, multi-frequency), Positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT), Multipath mitigation and interference suppression, Snapshot and ultra-low-power GNSS techniques.

Lead development of next-generation techniques such as Assisted GNSS (A-GNSS), Hybrid positioning (GNSS + Wi-Fi/Bluetooth/IMU), LEO-PNT and emerging navigation paradigms.

Oversee implementation of GNSS algorithms in embedded C on RTOS / bare-metal systems, FPGA with focus on performance optimization, high-volume silicon deployment.





Mentor and guide engineers, contractors in GNSS algorithms and embedded development. Set technical direction and promote engineering best practices, design standards and lead technical reviews, architecture discussions, decision-making processes.

Cross-Functional collaboration with product management to shape feature roadmap and differentiation strategy. Present technical concepts and results to internal and external stakeholders, including leadership teams and customers.
