• Exploration and investigation of options with proposals for innovative approaches.
• Analysis and interpretation of system requirements.
• Design and implementation of optimal algorithms and software solutions.
• Contribution to the development of positioning and test (PT) products and services.
• Problem-solving and analytical tasks including concept development, mathematical modelling, and prototyping.
• Support for analysis through the development and use of software tools including Python, MATLAB, and C++, while adhering to coding standards.
• Delivery of functional blocks and features for integration into existing products; definition and execution of test plans to validate requirements and ensure quality.
• Active participation in the full system development life cycle, from design through to implementation and validation.

Essential Requirements:

• Experience in mathematical modelling, and system and software development.
• Proven expertise in developing mathematical algorithms, methods, procedures, and software for:
• RF signal propagation
• 3D mapping analysis and modelling
• GNSS software and positioning techniques
• Degree in a relevant discipline, such as Mathematics, System Modelling, Physics, or Positioning.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a focus on applying mathematical modelling to real-world challenges.
• Proficient in the development and application of tools including Python, MATLAB, and C++, with adherence to software development standards.
• A collaborative team player with a positive attitude, eagerness to learn new technologies, self-motivation, and excellent interpersonal and communication skills. Ability to produce clear documentation and communicate project status effectively.

Desirable (Not Essential):

• Experience in positioning data analysis techniques to assess and improve system performance.
• Knowledge of RF signal path transmission and modelling.
• Familiarity with digital 3D mapping and modelling tools such as Cesium, Blender, and QGIS.
• Background in GNSS fused Position Engine development, including radio-based positioning solutions, hardware/software GNSS, RTK and inertial data fusion, and navigation systems.
• Experience in design and delivery of Position and Measurement Engines incorporating GPS, Galileo, Beidou, Glonass, and QZSS.
