About this role
This role develops the ground segment and monitoring infrastructure for LEO-PNT (Low Earth Orbit Positioning, Navigation, and Timing) and LNSS (Lunar Navigation Satellite System). It supports evaluation of satellite orbit, clock, signal, positioning, and service performance through monitoring stations, navigation equipment, timing infrastructure, and data systems.
Work includes designing station architectures, locations, equipment configurations, data flows, and operating procedures; integrating antennas, navigation receivers, software-defined radios, RF equipment, timing references, and data-acquisition systems; and developing systems to collect, process, store, and visualize monitoring data. It also covers analysis of integrity, continuity, and availability. Named tools include Linux, Python, RTKLIB, MATLAB, PTP, White Rabbit, NTP, GitHub, and Git.
The stated candidate expectation is willingness to learn Japanese and make an active effort to communicate across language barriers; some meetings and activities are conducted in English.
