Job description

Streamline Systems (F26)

We're building the replacement for GPS. A low-cost navigation module that positions platforms and guides drones without satellites. It's flying today. Now we need it hardened, productised and manufacturable.

I’m looking for a founding electrical engineer to own the hardware that makes satellite-free navigation real. Extremely high agency is what I care most about; you'll own the electronics end-to-end and have the freedom to run with it.

You should have:

  • Designed an RFIC from architecture and transistor-level design through tape-out, silicon bring-up and validation
  • Strong hands-on hardware experience: you’ve taken complex electronics from schematics and PCB layout through bring-up and debug
  • Built something cool outside of work or school

Nice to have:

  • Low-power embedded hardware and power systems
  • Writing low-level C code and libraries (drivers, DSP, hardware bring-up)
  • Antenna design and integration

Why join:

  • Remove satellite dependency for the US, UK and allies. Real impact, real customers (LOIs signed, government trials scheduled)
  • High agency, founding-level ownership of the hardware
  • $60 -180k + 0.5-2% with a path to technical leadership
  • $10k/year for a side project of your choosing

SF for the batch, US/UK after, be flexible on location. Applicant must have US or UK citizenship. If this is you, apply now.
