Deimos Space UK is selecting a Junior engineer to be involved in development and validation tasks related with GNSS Receivers. We are a team within GNSS Business Unit in Deimos Space that is working to develop GNSS algorithms to enable high precision positioning.

Main Duties:

The following main tasks shall be performed:

• Contribute to design and implementation of system prototypes based on FPGA platform for GNSS receiver;
• Hardware in the Loop Testing. Build and maintain custom laboratory set-up for running hardware in the loop (HIL) tests. You will be writing the code to improve the process of running tests and collecting the results.
• Develop scripts (Python) for test automatization (commanding of laboratory instrumentation and processing of measurements)
• Performance assessment activities of GNSS algorithms;
• Work with laboratory instrumentation;
• Support the development and verification of HMI (Human to Machine Interface) tool to interface with the GNSS receiver
• Preparation of relevant documentation;

Education:

• A university degree (Engineering, Physics, Mathematics, Telecommunications, Computer Science, or equivalent) in a discipline relevant to the job, with interest/specialization on Control / Estimation / Signal Processing

Professional Experience:

• Not requred

Technical Requirements:

The following skills and experiences are required:
