Founding Electrical Engineer

Streamline Systems is building the replacement for GPS.

We produce a low-cost navigation module designed to position military platforms, guide drones, and back up critical national infrastructure, all without satellites and at a fraction of the cost of existing solutions. Backed by Y Combinator, we're working with defence and PNT partners across the US and Europe to remove satellite dependency.

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:

• Experience owning a board from design and manufacture through bring-up and testing
• Deep RF design experience: you've designed and debugged real RF circuits and taken boards from schematics to working hardware
• 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 -100k + 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.

The companies core objective is provide novel capabilities that deliver huge impact at low-cost. Our module is a drop in replacement for GPS on existing Ardupilot, INAV and PX4 flight controllers, and we have demonstrated satellite-independent autonomous flight with GPS handoff. We're working with commercial and military end users currently to deploy this capability.
