GNSS Receiver Lead

Summary

Location: Bengaluru

Job type: Full time

Joining Date: Immediately

Minimum Experience: 5+ yrs

About the Role

We are looking for a highly motivated GNSS Receiver Engineer to join our team at VyomIC, where we are building the next-generation GlobalLEO- PNT (Positioning, Navigation, and Timing) satellite constellation from India.

In this role, you will design, simulate, test, and optimize innovative LEO-PNT signals while developing GNSS receiver functions such as acquisition, tracking, and decoding to generate accurate PVT outputs. You will work at the intersection of signal design, system engineering, and performance validation, ensuring robustness against noise, doppler, and interference. Additionally, you will use SDR tools like GNU Radio and MATLAB to build and evaluate receiver performance, contributing to the core architecture of VyomIC's constellation.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and validate advanced GNSS/PNT signal structures tailored for LEO satellites.
• Implement GNSS receiver blocks: Acquisition, Tracking, Navigation message Decoding.
• Develop and optimize PLL, DLL, and FLL tracking loops.
• Perform Doppler search and code phase estimation.
• Perform simulation and analysis of signal performance under multipath, interference, and jamming conditions to assess robustness of the signal.
• Validate signal acquisition, tracking, and decoding algorithms for the designed signal architecture and optimize it for Compatibility & Interoperability.
• Collaborate with hardware, mission design, and GNSS team to ensure seamless integration of signal design into payload and receiver platforms.
• Support prototype implementation and testing, including software receivers, SDRs, and hardware-in-the-loop setups.
• Stay updated with the latest global GNSS and LEO-PNT advancements, standards, and regulatory requirements.

Required Skills & Experience

• Strong knowledge of signal processing for GNSS receivers
• Hands-on experience in acquisition and tracking algorithms
• Proficiency in MATLAB, Python, or C/C++
• Understanding of modulation techniques (BPSK, QPSK, BOC)
• Familiarity with SDR tools like GNU Radio, Octave
• Ability to process IQ data and implement receiver pipelines
• Knowledge of performance metrics (C/N₀, SNR, tracking accuracy)

Preferred Skills & Experience

• Prior work on GNSS/PNT signal processing.
• Knowledge of LEO-PNT systems.
• Experience in SDR implementation and real-time receiver development.
• Knowledge of error correction coding and decoding.
• Experience in hardware testing and validation.
• Ability to debug full pipeline: Signal → Acquisition → Tracking → PVT.
• Knowledge of error correction coding, interference mitigation, and anti-jamming/anti-spoofing techniques.
• Experience with hardware testing, FPGA/DSP implementations, or software-defined receivers.
• Ability to work in cross-functional teams bridging signal design, system architecture, and hardware realization.

Why Join Us

• Build the future of global navigation - Be the part of the revolution, work on a mission that redefines how the world connects, navigates, and operates in the new age.
• Be part of the founding journey - shape the architecture of a global satellite constellation from the ground up and work directly with the Founding Team at VyomIC.
• Collaborate with High Profile advisors - learn from and engage with senior experts who bring decades of experience.
