We investigate the properties of a weak link between two Rashba-based superconducting nanowires with geometric misalignment. By applying an external magnetic field the system can be driven into a topological non-trivial regime. We demonstrate that the Josephson current can be modulated in amplitude and sign through the variation of the applied field and, remarkably, via the angle controlling the spin-orbit locking mismatch at the interface of the nanowires. The proposed setup with misaligned coplanar nanowires provides the building block configuration for the manipulation of coherent transport via geometric-controlled mixing/splitting of interface states.
