Senior Research Engineer, Precise Positioning Algorithms
Descrizione dell'offerta
Job Duties
- Research, design, and develop advanced algorithms for centimeter-level precise positioning using GNSS measurements, with a focus on PPP and RTK techniques.
- Enhance and optimize correction services (e.g., Topcon correction service) based on State Space Representation and real-time correction data.
- Integrate additional sensor data (INS, visual odometry, etc.) to improve reliability in challenging environments.
- Develop and validate precise ionosphere estimation methods using network interpolation and advanced mathematical models.
- Collaborate with DevOps and software engineering teams to ensure seamless integration of algorithms into production services and hardware.
- Conduct comparative research on state-of-the-art approaches, prepare technical reports, and present findings to stakeholders.
- Analyze requirements, clarify objectives, and develop optimal solutions with complexity assessment.
- Prototype solutions using high-level languages (Python, Matlab), with subsequent porting to embedded systems (C++).
- Debug and support developed algorithms on embedded platforms; create diagnostic tools for post-processing logs and simulation of positioning issues.
- Evaluate performance, conduct quality control, and perform error analysis using automated and manual testing frameworks.
- Participate in CI / CD workflows (TeamCity, Bitbucket / GitHub, Jira) for continuous integration and deployment of algorithmic modules.
- Collaborate in cross-functional teams, including hardware, QA, and cloud infrastructure (AWS, Kubernetes).
