Job summary

Analog Devices, Inc. is seeking a Navigation & PNT Expert to lead design, integration, and validation of advanced navigation systems. You will drive strategy and execution across GNSS, inertial sensors, and sensor fusion for defense, commercial, and space applications.

The role enables remote work from a home office with global collaboration across hardware, software, and systems teams, requiring strong programming and data analysis skills.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Robotics, Computer Science, Physics, or a related field.
• 10+ years of experience in PNT, navigation systems, or related domains.
• Strong understanding of GNSS (GPS, Galileo, GLONASS, BeiDou) and augmentation systems (SBAS, RTK, PPP).
• Inertial sensors (IMUs), magnetometers, barometers, wheel odometry, etc.
• Navigation and sensor-fusion algorithms (EKF/UKF, error-state filtering, SLAM).
• Timing systems (oscillators, synchronization, clock modeling).
• Proficiency with simulation and analysis tools (e.g., MATLAB, Python, C/C++, ROS).
• Experience with real-world data collection, calibration, and system testing.
• Strong problem-solving ability and communication skills.
• US Citizenship required

Responsibilities

• Design and develop PNT solutions, including GNSS-based systems, inertial navigation, vision-based navigation, and multi-sensor fusion architectures.
• Analyze and improve positioning, navigation, and timing performance under diverse operational environments.
• Develop, tune, and validate navigation algorithms, including Kalman filters and fusion methods.
• Model and simulate PNT systems to predict performance and support design decisions.
• Conduct GNSS signal analysis, including interference, spoofing detection, multipath characterization, and resilience.
• Lead integration and testing in laboratory and field environments using representative sensors and platforms.
• Support system architecture development, providing expert input on PNT requirements, interfaces, and performance budgets.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams including hardware, software, autonomy, guidance & control, and systems engineering.
• Document findings and present results to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
