R&T Software Engineer - GNSS Simulation
We're looking for a R&T Software Engineer- GNSS Simulation to join our R&T team in Granada, Spain and provide direct technical support in the development, validation, and evolution of our GNSS simulation and interference detection capabilities.
The Position:
As an Embedded Software Engineer, you will start working on a highly motivating engagement with the R&T Engineering Team in Granada, Spain, where you will be expected to develop the elements and tools of the GNSS simulation platform.
As an R&T Software Engineer, you will work closely with the GNSS Simulation team to extend the capabilities of our simulation platform, develop embedded software components and C-based functionalities, and support the improvement of interference detection and signal processing algorithms.
Thus, you will assist in the development, integration, and validation of the main critical scenarios under study. This could include custom simulation modules, user-level applications, software libraries, or even develop/test automation procedures. Moreover, you will implement the necessary extensions to our simulation scenarios, and debug and diagnose any issues arising during the design of these extensions.
You will be involved in national/international collaborative R&T projects, where technical rigor, clear communication, structured documentation is key, and the ability to contribute to demonstrators and technical deliverables is essential.

Safran Electronics & Defense is a global leader in high-technology solutions for the aerospace, defense, and security markets, specializing in avionics, navigation systems, and optronics. As part of the Safran group, a multinational aerospace and defense corporation, the company designs and manufactures critical equipment including inertial navigation systems, flight control computers, and timing solutions. With a workforce of thousands across multiple countries, Safran Electronics & Defense operates at the forefront of the defense electronics industry, delivering sophisticated products for both civil and military applications.
In Spain, Safran Electronics & Defense has a significant presence, particularly in Granada, which serves as a key hub for its R&D and engineering activities. The Spanish subsidiary focuses heavily on embedded software, FPGA design, and GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) technologies, making it a highly relevant destination for international engineers and software developers. The work culture emphasizes technical excellence, innovation, and cross-border collaboration, offering international professionals the opportunity to work on cutting-edge defense and aerospace projects in a dynamic, engineering-driven environment.
Our Technology:
Safran Electronics and Defense is a world leader in Resilient Positioning, Navigation and Timing (R-PNT) solutions that improve the reliability, performance and safety of critical applications, and high-risk operations, even in GPS/GNSS denied environments. We provide virtually fail-safe GNSS and PNT solutions for military and commercial applications worldwide.
Our team contributes to national/international innovation projects and business opportunities focused on resilient positioning, navigation and timing, GNSS simulation, timing distribution, synchronization technologies and interference detection and mitigation. The team develops and validates advanced simulation capabilities, including GNSS scenarios involving jamming, spoofing, signal degradation, and resilient PNT use cases. These activities support both research demonstrators and future product capabilities.
To this end, we work with technologies related to ultra-accurate synchronization (sub-ns) and frequency distribution. This allows to deliver a broad set of products and technical solutions based on the enhanced White Rabbit PTP synchronization technology for a variety of applications, ranging from timing distribution in financial networks to robust and reliable positioning.
