Geo-GPS Spoofing Cybersecurity SpecialistJob Type: Full-Time
Department: Cyber Security / Threat Intelligence / PNT Security
Position SummaryIn this role, you will be the subject matter expert on GNSS vulnerabilities, RF (Radio Frequency) signal analysis, and anti-spoofing countermeasures. You will work closely with our engineering, threat intelligence, and red-team operations to simulate attack scenarios, harden hardware/software architectures, and develop real-time detection systems for location-based spoofing.
Key Responsibilities- Threat Analysis & Research: Investigate emerging techniques in GPS/GNSS spoofing, meaconing, and signal jamming impacting mobile, IoT, aviation, and maritime assets.
- Architecture Hardening: Design and implement robust anti-spoofing and authentication mechanisms for PNT systems (e.g., cryptographic signal authentication, multi-sensor data fusion).
- Simulations & Testing: Conduct controlled RF spoofing and penetration testing in lab and field environments to evaluate system resilience.
- Detection & Incident Response: Build monitoring tools and algorithms to detect anomalous location shifts, signal power discrepancies, and clock drift in real time.
- Collaboration: Partner with software and hardware engineering teams to integrate security best practices directly into product lifecycles.
- Reporting & Strategy: Deliver technical briefings and threat intelligence reports to executive leadership and key enterprise clients.
Qualifications & Requirements- Experience: 4+ years of hands-on experience in cybersecurity, RF engineering, or wireless communications security, with a specific focus on GNSS/GPS technologies.
- Technical Proficiencies:
- Deep understanding of GNSS architectures (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou) and signal structures.
- Proficiency with Software Defined Radios (SDRs) such as USRP, HackRF, or BladeRF, and tools like GNURadio.
- Experience with sensor fusion (combining GPS with IMUs, wheel odometers, or computer vision) for navigation resilience.
- Programming Skills: Strong proficiency in Python, C++, or MATLAB for data analysis, signal processing, and automation.
- Security Knowledge: Familiarity with cryptographic protocols, secure boot, and hardware security modules (HSMs).
- Education: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Cybersecurity, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).
Preferred Qualifications- Experience securing critical infrastructure, autonomous vehicles (AVs), or defense systems.
- Familiarity with commercial anti-spoofing modules or civil tiered authentication services (e.g., Galileo OSNMA).
- Relevant certifications (e.g., CISSP, OSCP, or specialized RF/wireless security credentials).
What We Offer- Competitive Salary & Equity: Highly competitive compensation package commensurate with experience.
- Comprehensive Benefits: Health, dental, and vision insurance with 100% premium coverage options, plus a 401(k) matching program.
- Flexible Work Environment: Remote-first culture with access to state-of-the-art lab facilities.
- Continuous Learning: Annual stipend for conferences, certifications, and technical training.
