    Mission Systems Engineer - Mountain View, United States - Trust Point Inc.

    Default job background
    Description

    Join TrustPoint and Build the World's First Commercial GPS System in Space

    GPS is a ubiquitous global utility in modern society and knowing one's location is critical for government, commercial, and personal applications. Still, today's solutions for determining location are inaccurate, slow, unencrypted, and susceptible to jamming and spoofing. These shortcomings make heritage GPS and other government owned systems insufficient for tomorrow's safety-critical and high-precision applications, a problem TrustPoint intends to solve.

    TrustPoint is developing a fully commercial next-generation Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) to provide significant performance, security and reliability improvements for GPS users. This includes better accuracy, quicker Time to First Fix, and anti-spoof and anti-jam capabilities. The improvements will support US Government position and timing service resiliency as well as enable next-generation commercial applications like drone delivery, self-driving cars, urban air mobility, and augmented reality. The over $100B annual GNSS Receiver market is ripe for disruption and TrustPoint intends to lead that revolution with our microsatellite based commercial infrastructure and innovative positioning and timing services.

    The Position

    With locations outside Washington DC and in Silicon Valley, TrustPoint is currently seeking a full time Mission Systems Engineer to join our engineering team, lead customer programs, and help design, develop, and test a state-of-the-art GNSS high-accuracy positioning commercial system.
