We are looking for a Navigation Engineer to join our Missile & Space Systems Division.

Role Responsibilities:

  • Development of algorithms, performance analysis, and advanced analytical studies.
  • End-to-end responsibility for the development of navigation systems.
  • Algorithm development using Python and MATLAB.
  • Collaboration with system engineers and project managers.
  • Participation in laboratory experiments, field tests, and experimental test ranges.

What We Are Looking For:

  • MSc or PhD in Mathematics, Physics, Electrical Engineering, or Aeronautical Engineering – mandatory.
  • Proven experience in statistical estimation, statistical signal processing, and Kalman filteringmandatory.
  • Experience in developing physical and/or mathematical algorithms – an advantage.
  • Familiarity with inertial sensors, magnetic flux sensors, and their application in navigation systems – an advantage.

Good to Know:

In this role, you will be part of a research and development team responsible for advanced navigation systems that serve as a critical component in the success of high-precision missile systems.

R&D in this domain requires creativity and the ability to develop solutions beyond standard engineering toolsets. The challenges of this role demand deep understanding and/or strong self-learning capabilities across a wide range of scientific and engineering disciplines.

A significant advantage of this position is the opportunity to validate theoretical concepts through real-world experiments, where the navigation engineer’s work is ultimately tested and proven in practice.
