About The Position

We are a cybersecurity firm protecting critical infrastructure, aerospace systems, maritime navigation, and enterprise location-based services against electronic attacks. The Geo-GPS Spoofing Cybersecurity Specialist serves as a subject matter expert on GNSS vulnerabilities, RF signal analysis, and anti-spoofing countermeasures. The role works with engineering, threat intelligence, and red-team operations to simulate attacks, strengthen hardware and software architectures, and develop real-time systems for detecting location-based spoofing. The specialist investigates GPS/GNSS spoofing, meaconing, and jamming; designs and implements PNT security measures; conducts controlled testing; builds real-time detection tools; supports security integration into product lifecycles; and delivers technical briefings and threat intelligence reports. The position is full-time and remote-first, with access to lab facilities. Applicants must be U.S. citizens.

Requirements

At least 4 years of hands-on experience in cybersecurity, RF engineering, or wireless communications security, specifically focused on GNSS/GPS technologies.
Deep understanding of GNSS architectures, including GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou, and their signal structures.
Proficiency with software-defined radios such as USRP, HackRF, or BladeRF, and tools such as GNURadio.
Experience with sensor fusion combining GPS with IMUs, wheel odometers, or computer vision for navigation resilience.
Strong proficiency in Python, C++, or MATLAB for data analysis, signal processing, and automation.
Familiarity with cryptographic protocols, secure boot, and hardware security modules (HSMs).
Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Cybersecurity, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
Must be a U.S. citizen.

Nice To Haves

Experience securing critical infrastructure, autonomous vehicles, or defense systems.
Familiarity with commercial anti-spoofing modules or civil tiered authentication services such as Galileo OSNMA.
Relevant certifications such as CISSP, OSCP, or specialized RF/wireless security credentials.

Responsibilities

Investigate emerging GPS/GNSS spoofing, meaconing, and signal-jamming techniques affecting mobile, IoT, aviation, and maritime assets.
Design and implement anti-spoofing and authentication mechanisms for PNT systems, including cryptographic signal authentication and multi-sensor data fusion.
Conduct controlled RF spoofing simulations and penetration testing in laboratory and field environments to evaluate system resilience.
Build monitoring tools and algorithms to detect anomalous location shifts, signal-power discrepancies, and clock drift in real time.
Partner with software and hardware engineering teams to integrate security best practices into product lifecycles.
Deliver technical briefings and threat intelligence reports to executive leadership and enterprise clients.
