  • Field Application Engineer (US)

    Point One Navigation, Inc. 3.6company rating

    Staff engineer job in San Francisco, CA

    About Us Point One Navigation is building the future of precise location. Our mission is to deliver a unified location platform that enables autonomy, safety, and efficiency across industries from robotics to transportation. We are a high-performance, high-collaboration team that thrives on solving complex problems, moving fast, and delivering impact. Role Outcome We are looking for a Field Application Engineer (FAE) based in US to support technical adoption and success of our GNSS/GPS SaaS solutions across key accounts globally. You will play a vital role in the go-to-market process, partnering closely with Sales, Product, Customer Success, and Engineering teams around the world. As an FAE you will provide technical advisory and expertise on full system design, have the ability to not only build technical relationships but effectively influence lead engineer and technical decisions through technical storytelling. Must be deeply interested in debugging/troubleshooting/investigating technical challenges. Success in this role means being responsible and owning technical wins and cultivating technical champions with prospects and customers. You'll work with prospects and customers in verticals such as autonomous vehicles, robotics, drones, industrial automation, and precision agriculture. From designing proof-of-concepts to architecture reviews to post-sales support, you'll be instrumental in helping customers succeed with our technology. Immediate Areas of Focus Pre-Sales Technical Engagement: Partner with the Sales team to understand customer needs and deliver technical presentations, workshops, and demos. Design and execute proof-of-concepts (PoCs) to engage deeply with engineering teams and technical stakeholders to guide them through product evaluation and decision-making. Solution Architecture & Design: Lead customers through architecture reviews, deployment planning, and systems integration design involving GNSS corrections, cloud services, autonomy stacks, and embedded systems. Recommend scalable integration strategies and help customers plan for high-precision, real-time positioning deployments. Post-Sales Technical Enablement & Support: Support product integration, onboarding and adoption by providing hands-on technical guidance, documentation, and training. Act as the technical liaison between the customer and internal teams to troubleshoot issues and optimize performance. Ensure successful long-term product usage and contribute to technical success planning for key accounts. Global & Regional Collaboration: Work in close coordination with global counterparts in North America, EU, APAC to ensure alignment on strategy, resources, and product support. Serve as a bridge between customers and the global product/engineering organization, bringing localized insight to the global roadmap. Support internal initiatives such as solution standardization, reusable assets, demo environments, and training content. Qualifications 2+ years of customer facing engineering role 2+ years in a hardware, software and/or GNSS space Ability to travel 25% of time Our Cultural Foundation At Point One, our cultural and operating design is built around one guiding principle: we must move with extreme speed and efficiency of effort to stay in a leadership position. This environment gives people a high level of autonomy and the ability to make a real impact. It also challenges every team member to grow - both professionally and personally. Because we focus on promoting from within rather than relying on external hiring, the opportunities for advancement are tremendous for those who seek them. That said, growth only comes from delivering in the present. What matters most is the job to be done today, not the job you want tomorrow. When we all focus on today's outcomes with excellence, the path to greater responsibility and growth naturally follows. We think about our culture in two dimensions: How We Show Up Every Day These are the behaviors we expect every team member to bring to work - the foundation of being a consummate, high-output teammate: Trust / Assume Best Intent - Trust allows us to move fast. When we start from trust, we spend no time second-guessing or looking for ulterior motives and thus focus all our energy on acting. High Output, Action Oriented - Our default posture is “yes.” We bias toward action and deliver results quickly, knowing that speed and efficiency compound into impact as we unblock others around us. Divine Discontent - We're never satisfied with the status quo and are self-motivated to improve ourselves, our work, and our company. We actively seek feedback in real-time to shorten improvement cycles. No Ego, One Team - Collaboration without ego creates leverage. When we win as one team, we eliminate friction and move faster together. Self Accountability - Taking ownership is the straightest line to learning, self-improvement, and correcting our course of action. And blaming others around us is a fast path to destroying trust. Operating Principles These are the systems and norms that amplify speed and efficiency at the company level: Edge Innovation - We bias toward action over approval. Experiment, decide, and move - failure is just a step toward faster learning. No Hierarchies - We practice self-prioritization and go direct to the source. Flattening layers reduces drag and maximizes autonomy. Customer Experience First - We optimize for the end-to-end customer outcome, not functional or departmental efficiency. This focus cuts waste, aligns priorities, and ensures we spend effort where it matters most. If this role sounds like a fit, we'd love to hear from you. Apply below and join us in shaping the future of precise location. #J-18808-Ljbffr
