About the Company

TDK Trusted Positioning is a world leader in sensor software solutions that enable navigation and positioning in areas where traditional wireless positioning systems, such as GNSS, do not work. TDK Trusted Positioning is focused on creating sensor software solutions that provide continuous, accurate and affordable navigation and context for smartphones, wearables, vehicles, drones, robots, or anything else that moves. Our vision is to provide positioning everywhere by sensing everything.

About the Job

TDK Canada is seeking a “Systems and Software – Manager” with a background in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or a related field of study. The successful candidate will work on and lead/manage a team working on systems and software for navigation systems using multiple sensors. Those navigation systems are either portable navigation or vehicular navigation, and the multiple sensors are either from portable and wearable devices or from vehicles.

An overview of the Systems and Software role responsibilities:

· Work on and lead/manage a team working on software, including applications real-time and offline as well as products’ libraries and SDKs.

· Work on and lead/manage a team working on firmware for embedded systems (on both RTOS and Linux among others).

· Work on and lead/manage a team working on hardware of embedded systems, and also some mechanical hardware. This also include full hardware systems for EVKs, demos, POCs, pilots, as well as internal testing and data collection.

· Lead/manage team members working on Cloud development

· Lead/manage team members working on Mobile apps development (iOS, Android).

Other tasks will include





· Developing embedded software modules for portable and vehicular navigation and their conversion to ANSI C code (and potentially C++) with optimization, modularization and maintenance.

· Development of embedded software related to positioning for portable and vehicular navigation using multiple sensors and absolute navigation systems such as GNSS/WiFi.

· Implementation of different communication interfaces from I2C, SPI, UART, USB, Ethernet, CAN and porting optimized algorithms from a higher-level scripting language to lower-level embedded C.

· Designing, reviewing and debugging hardware schematics including electrical schematics, PCB layouts, BOMs and component selections based on intended use case and real world scenarios.

· Conducting research and development for enhancing the performance of vehicular navigation for autonomous vehicle and of portable navigation using portable and wearable devices for on-foot navigation or in-platform navigation (e.g. in vehicle) for freely moving portable devices.

· Development of data conversion/analysis/demo tools. Python and/or MATLAB are used.

· Documentation of the different developed modules.
