Senior Signal Processing Engineer
Technology Positioning – Advanced R&D
We are looking for a Senior Signal Processing Engineer to join our Technology Positioning team. In this role, you will contribute to the long-term evolution of u-blox positioning technologies, working at the intersection of GNSS signal processing, receiver architecture, and advanced research topics. This position is ideal for an experienced GNSS engineer who enjoys combining deep technical work with strategic technology development, influencing future products and platforms across the u-blox portfolio.
Your Responsibilities
- Design and development of advanced GNSS measurement-layer algorithms, including acquisition, tracking, and signal quality metrics
- Exploration and prototyping of next-generation GNSS and PNT technologies, such as multi-frequency, multi-constellation, LEO-PNT, SoOP, and hybrid positioning concepts
- Algorithm development and validation using Python / MATLAB, followed by implementation in embedded C/C++ for real-time receiver environments
- Performance analysis using simulations, lab measurements, and real-world data
- Contribution to receiver architecture and technology roadmaps, in close cooperation with system and product teams
- Technical documentation, internal knowledge sharing, and support for technology transfer into product development
- Depending on seniority, mentoring of other engineers and technical leadership within selected focus areas
Your Skills and Experience
- MSc or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Telecommunication, Signal Processing, Computer Science, or a related field
- Strong hands-on experience in GNSS receiver signal processing, particularly at the measurement layer
- Solid understanding of acquisition, tracking loops (DLL / PLL / FLL), data decoding, and their interaction with positioning engines
- Experience in GNSS algorithm development for mass-market or high-precision receivers
- Proficiency in embedded C/C++, with supporting skills in Python and/or MATLAB
- Familiarity with embedded real-time systems and modern software development practices is appreciated
- Analytical, detail-oriented mindset with a strong focus on quality and robustness
- Ability to communicate complex technical topics clearly in English
Nice to Have
- Experience with high-precision GNSS (RTK, PPP, PPP-RTK) or integrity-related topics
- Exposure to LEO-PNT, SoOP, or hybrid PNT systems
- Semiconductor or GNSS SoC development experience
- Experience in technical leadership, mentoring, or cross-team coordination
What We Offer
- A technically challenging role with real influence on future u-blox positioning technologies
- Opportunity to work at the technology and research frontier, beyond single product cycles
- Collaboration with highly skilled GNSS and signal processing experts across u-blox
- Flexible working model, including remote work options
- Competitive compensation and benefits, including strong social security and work-life balance
- A professional, international environment with a strong engineering culture
Additional Perks
- A multicultural and international company with over 60 different nationalities
- Project-based activities working with colleagues across the globe
- A start-up and innovation mindset while scaling processes and efficiencies
- Hybrid working model & flexible working hours
- A strong learning environment and regular career discussions
- Company Performance Bonus
