Duties & Responsibilities:
VIAVI Solutions is hiring an experienced embedded Software Engineer to join the software development team designing the next generation and state-of-the-art products and technologies in resilient alternative Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (aPNT) receiver technologies. Supported technologies include: implementing receivers with the latest emerging Satellite radio signals, timing synchronization, algorithms for geo-location and navigation INS and Kalman filter integration for un-aided navigation, driver development for embedded GNSS receiver technologies. Systems will be fielded quickly for critical infrastructure protection, UAV timing- and positioning-, anti-jamming, and anti-spoofing applications. Work on the next generation, leading-edge Critical Infrastructure, government and Commercial Timing and Frequency solutions.
Responsibilities include, but are not limited to the following:Derive requirements, conceptualize, define, design & prototype PNT solutionsCreate, analyze and refine the required software for stationary timing, and positioning for motion platforms such as UAVs and UASDevelop software using C in an RTOS environment to translate prototypes into optimized, production-quality code suitable for operational deploymentPerform hardware/software integration, debugging, and code optimization on target platformsInterface with cross-functional teams and sites and customers to define and implement new featuresCoordinate technical discussions and collaborate with platform and system architects to make design decisionsMay act as technical lead and provide mentoring to other software engineersPre-Requisites / Skills / Experience Requirements:
Required Skills
BS Degree or higher in EE, CS, or CE. MS preferred.5+ years of Software Development experienceKnowledge of GNSS communication systems theory and signal processing conceptsExperience developing/debugging applications and device drivers for RTOSProficiency in C DesignGood understanding of GNSS and RF transmission technology, including signalingHands-on experience in lab equipment such as scopes, spectrum analyzers, signal generatorsSolid technical leadership skills and ability to serve as a project leadExcellent problem solving & troubleshooting skills.Able to understand new system architectures quicklyExcellent verbal and written communication skillsEnjoy working in a highly collaborative environmentHighly motivated, able to work independently with minimal directionPreferred Skills:
GNSS signals and systemsKnowledge/Experience with Cortex M4/M7, embedded programming and memory optimizationPerformance optimization for resource-limited embedded platformsUnderstanding of GNSS functional blocks and capabilitiesKalman filter integration and optimizationExperience with version control systems (preferably Git)Experience using an Agile-based development process (preferably Scrum)Experience with project tracking software, preferably Atlassian tools (Jira, Confluence, Crucible)Knows intimate technical details of various GNSS systems, and is comfortable working with, and describing intimate details of Almanacs, Ephemerides, Rinex files, etc.Has recent practical or theoretical experience, and or training in Systems-Control-Theory.Good understanding of such concepts as over, under, and critically damping a control loop, FIR and IIR filtering in both SW and HW, and preferably has good experience with Kalman filtering as well as IMU aiding.Good understanding and can show proficiency when using simulation tools such as Matlab, as well as JTAG debuggers, and other analysis/simulation tools.Optional Skills:
Zero-IF and Heterodyne receiver implementationsParticle filter implementation and optimizationC++ and OO programmingGNSS oscillator discipliningNavigation protocols such as NMEA, SCPI, and ICD-GPS-153Familiarity with FrameMaker documentation toolsVision-Based Navigation software and algorithmic design experienceFPGA and FPLD (RTL) programming experience is a plus, but not required.Experience in extended temperature range and ruggedized projects (industrial as well as military) is an advantage.Experience with governmental design-contracts and project tracking and documentation
