Works on the transceiver, and HW control and wireless Radio Access Stratum implementation of a multi-RAT (Radio Access Technology) from industry specifications (most notably 3GPP with LTE and 5GNR). Has experience in the WWAN L1/L2/L3 specifications and can efficiently implement the shared resources of a multi-RAT modem. Works closely with other functional groups to develop a cost effective, high quality and high capability modem IP that meets industry and customer requirements with high performance (e.g., throughput, latency, power consumption) and acceptable cost (e.g., silicon area, calibration complexity, code size).
Master's degree or PhD in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field.
5+ years of experience with programming (e.g., C, C++, Python), computer architecture, or embedded systems.
