Xona Tech Stack
Real-time centimeter-level positioning for satellite-based global navigation
Xona builds space-based navigation infrastructure—GNSS payloads and orbit-determination software for LEO satellite constellations. The tech stack is heavy on FPGA and signal processing (MATLAB, Vivado, Xilinx RFSoC, Verilog) paired with cloud data pipelines (Pulsar, Kubernetes, AWS), indicating a dual engineering challenge: satellite hardware-software co-design and ground-station data scale. Active hiring skews toward mid- and senior-level engineers (54 of 50 roles), with acute pain around manufacturing scale and constellation operations—signals of a company scaling from prototype toward production deployment.
