Put it on top of the self-invoking function

'use strict';
angular.module('Home', []).controller('HomeCtrl', function($scope) {
    $scope.currentLocation = function() {

        navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(pos) {
            $scope.position = new google.maps.LatLng(pos.coords.latitude, pos.coords.longitude);
            return $scope.position;
        });
    };

    (function initialize() {
        var location = $scope.currentLocation();
        $scope.mapOptions = {
            mapTypeControl: true,
            zoom: 15,
            mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP,
            center: location
        };
    })();

});

'use strict';
angular.module('Home', []).controller('HomeCtrl', function($scope) {
    $scope.currentLocation = function() {
    console.log("working")

        navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(pos) {
            $scope.position = new google.maps.LatLng(pos.coords.latitude, pos.coords.longitude);
            return $scope.position;
        });
    };

    (function initialize() {
        var location = $scope.currentLocation();
        $scope.mapOptions = {
            mapTypeControl: true,
            zoom: 15, 
            center: location
        };
    })();

});

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.2.23/angular.min.js"></script>
<div ng-app="Home" ng-controller="HomeCtrl">
 
</div>

$scope.currentLocation definition should be inside module.

Currently you are writing currentLocation outside module, hence it is not accessible.

You should have added empty dependency to your module

Change

From

 angular.module('Home').controller('HomeCtrl',

To

 angular.module('Home',[]).controller('HomeCtrl',

Also the order of parameters is wrong, change it as

'use strict';
angular.module('Home').controller('HomeCtrl', ['$scope', '$state','$ionicModal', 'MessageService', function ($scope, $state, $ionicModal, MessageService) {
   $scope.currentLocation = function() {
console.log("working")

    navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition(function(pos) {
        $scope.position = new google.maps.LatLng(pos.coords.latitude, pos.coords.longitude);
        return $scope.position;
    });
};

(function initialize() {
    var location = $scope.currentLocation();
    $scope.mapOptions = {
        mapTypeControl: true,
        zoom: 15, 
        center: location
    };
})();
}]);
