Firmware engineer- Autonomy GNSS- GPS - NAVIGATION

Mountain View, CA

Full Time - w2 Role

This role is for an engineer who writes low-level C/C++ software for GPS hardware, ensuring accurate, secure, and real-time positioning for autonomous vehicles and robots, working closely with hardware and testing in real-world conditions.

We re looking for an embedded firmware engineer with GNSS experience who can work close to hardware and ensure safe, accurate positioning for autonomous systems.

An autonomy GNSS firmware engineer is a specialist who develops the low-level embedded software that enables autonomous systems (like self-driving cars, drones, and robotics) to precisely determine their location using Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS). They are critical to integrating positioning data with other sensors for safe, reliable navigation.

Programming: Strong proficiency in C/C++ for real-time systems.

Experience with embedded systems, Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS) like FreeRTOS or Linux, and Kernel low-level drivers.

Deep understanding of GNSS principles, signal processing, and navigation technologies.

Familiarity with tools like GitHub, oscilloscopes, logic analysers, and JTAG debuggers.
