oDesign of algorithms to acquire and track the modern signal structures used in Galileo (e.g., Binary Offset Carrier),
oError sources affecting GNSS and their associated models (e.g., ionosphere or multipath models),
oAlgorithms for the combination of observations (e.g., ionosphere-free and code-minus-phase combinations),
oIntegrity monitoring algorithms such as ARAIM,
oPrecise GNSS products (e.g., precise ephemerides and clock data),
oHigh accuracy positioning and timing techniques such as Precise Point Positioning and/or Real Time Kinematics,
oEvaluation of GNSS performance and related statistics and algorithms,

  • The ability to communicate and explain complex concepts clearly to colleagues and clients,
The following skills and competencies are considered to be assets:

oProficiency in software engineering aspects, including requirement definition, architectural design, implementation, and testing,
oFamiliarity with object-oriented programming in C or C++,
oExperience with Agile and/or SAFe.

  • Please note that holding an EU passport is mandatory for obtaining an EU Personal Security Clearance, which is a part of our selection process.
