You will join our GNSS team and help lead the development and delivery of our S-GNSS product. The role offers significant scope for professional development spanning the product and engineering disciplines. - Join the development team and actively contribute to the software lifecycle - Contribute to the development and maintenance of Supercorrelation software and testing tools - Take ownership of requirements capture, test definition and quality assurance - Champion the improvement and adoption of development processes - Generate clear technical results and communicate to internal and external stakeholders - Contribute to team planning - Provide technical mentorship to junior engineers within the company Technologies: - Git - Matlab - Sensor Fusion - C++ More: About FocalPoint Our vision is to improve every positioning solution We believe that GNSS is one of the marvels of the modern world. Over a trillion dollars of the US economy and over 800 billion euros of the European economy currently depends on this incredible positioning and timing system. However, the sensitivity and accuracy of current receivers fail the levels of performance 21st century businesses and individuals demand. Our revolutionary technologies transform the capability of all GNSS devices. Blog The role of S-GNSS Auto in the vehicle ecosystem: Collaborative partnerships with OEMs and partners As the concept of software defined vehicle (SDV) continues to gain traction in the automotive space, and the automotive supply chain gets more complex and technical, OEMs need to be in contact with details on the different software products available that were previously buried under Tier 1 or Tier 2 systems. Nowadays, almost all hardware components are driven by software; and GNSS is no exception. Software upgrades are crucial to extract the best possible performance out of the existing hardware. In this blog, we will explain how our innovative software upgrade enhances the performance of existing GNSS sensors and how OEMs work with FocalPoint to build S-GNSS Auto into their vehicles. While new platforms are inevitable and necessary in the automotive space, their planning and implementation is costly, complex and time consuming, and given a significant part of the performance of hardware components is determined by their software driver, it makes a lot of sense for OEMs to tend towards SDVs. Nearly all new vehicles include an onboard GNSS to provide various functions, including route guidance, map localisation and ADAS to name a few. OEMs should look to maximise the performance of this existing GNSS using S-GNSS Auto, a software upgrade to an existing GNSS chipset. S-GNSS Auto, a GNSS solution for challenging roads Environments like under foliage or urban areas where there is multipath have always been challenging to GNSS, and receivers have struggled to maintain adequate performance. S-GNSS is an upgrade to the GNSS receiver that works by using a synthetic aperture to exploit angle-of-arrival and target line-of-sight signals. In doing this, unwanted signals from bounces are automatically rejected and signals from the desired line-of-sight are boosted resulting in dramatic accuracy, sensitivity and reliability gains versus standard receivers. While the performance benefits have already been covered in detail in various other content (accuracy, sensitivity & reliability), this blog aims to address some of the nuances of S-GNSS - particularly its place in the vehicle ecosystem and how we work with OEMs and their supply partners. S-GNSS Auto is powered by our award winning Supercorrelation technology, and works by enhancing the GNSS receivers measurement engine. This means that an implementation of S-GNSS is tightly coupled to the specific receiver, and is why we need to work with the chip manufacturers to bring S-GNSS to OEMs. Once the specific implementation is developed, it may be possible to run S-GNSS downstream from the GNSS chip, depending on the surrounding architecture. The critical importance of enhanced GNSS accuracy for ADAS and AV systems GNSS is the only sensor capable of helping the ADAS to determine the vehicle's absolute position and trajectory. With S-GNSS Auto we have a reliable solution that mitigates reflection suitable for hand-free driving in cities. Enabling cost-effective mass vehicle deployment, S-GNSS Auto provides an affordable way for automotive OEMs and Tier 1s to significantly boost GNSS receiver accuracy, integrity and security - both for today's ADAS systems and for tomorrow's fully-autonomous vehicles.

S-GNSS Auto is powered by our award winning Supercorrelation technology, and works by enhancing the GNSS receivers measurement engine. This means that an implementation of S-GNSS is tightly coupled to the specific receiver, and is why we need to work with the chip manufacturers to bring S-GNSS to OEMs. Once the specific implementation is developed, it may be possible to run S-GNSS downstream from the GNSS chip, depending on the surrounding architecture. The critical importance of enhanced GNSS accuracy for ADAS and AV systems GNSS is the only sensor capable of helping the ADAS to determine the vehicle's absolute position and trajectory. With S-GNSS Auto we have a reliable solution that mitigates reflection suitable for hand-free driving in cities. Enabling cost-effective mass vehicle deployment, S-GNSS Auto provides an affordable way for automotive OEMs and Tier 1s to significantly boost GNSS receiver accuracy, integrity and security - both for today's ADAS systems and for tomorrow's fully-autonomous vehicles.
