About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Define, design, implement and document new features in Swift's GNSS corrections engine, with a focus on advanced user positioning algorithms (PPP/RTK), orbit/clock estimation and atmospheric modeling.
Provide technical leadership on challenging, cross-cutting engineering projects spanning atmospheric modeling, correction generation, and message formatting.
Take complex problems from target markets and customers and distill them into coherent technical strategies and execution plans.
Drive clean software engineering practices through code reviews, design reviews, and architectural guidance to teammates and other Skylark teams.
Act as a standard bearer for new technologies and techniques in GNSS positioning, balancing innovation against operational pragmatism.
Proactively address technical debt and design systems for maximum utility across the Skylark product line.
Collaborate with the team tech lead, PMs, and adjacent teams to ensure technical alignment across releases.
Mentor engineers across the team, including senior ICs, and contribute to the development of the broader Skylark engineering group.

Requirements

What you’ll need

Strong background in GNSS positioning algorithms, ideally PPP, RTK, or SSR-based correction systems.
Deep understanding of atmospheric effects on GNSS signals (ionosphere, troposphere) and approaches to model and mitigate them.
Demonstrated technical leadership on large-scale projects delivered to production.
Modern C++, with the ability to write clean, performant, well-tested code.
Experience working iteratively with strong cross-functional communication across engineering, product, and customer-facing stakeholders.
Git or equivalent version control systems, and modern software engineering practices (CI, code review, automated testing).
