Lead the architectural design of PNT solutions, integrating Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), Inertial Navigation Systems, and alternative PNT (e.g., vision-based, RF-based, or celestial navigation). Architect distributed sensing networks, defining how data is collected, synchronized, and fused across multiple remote nodes to create a unified operational picture. Define system-level requirements, interface control documents, and performance specifications for timing accuracy and positioning precision. Perform trade studies to optimise the balance between size, weight, power, and cost and system performance. PNT & Synchronization Expertise . Implement and optimise high-precision timing distribution protocols (e.g., PTP/IEEE 1588, NTP, or White Rabbit).
