Baseband Platform SW Architect

Position description and career opportunities
If you:

• are not interested in new technologies
• are not keen on exploring boundaries of existing systems
• like slow and clumsy networks
• don't want to create telco solutions for year 2020+

please don't come to us!

But if you said NO to all above statements – you definitely should continue reading!

Our team is working on creating solutions for mobile telecommunication industry for current and future networks: starting from 2G through 3G, 4G to 5G and beyond. We define an Architecture of a system that has to be roboust and be able to offer a unique experience for mobile users, like high data throughput, short communication latency and voice quality.

A system is composed of various elements with HW, SW and SoC (System-On-Chip) components. Part of our job is to define what should be implemented by which component. This includes selecting an appropriate technology, creating an implementation strategy and evaluating different potential options.

We are open for using different techniques that help to optimize the system, like simulation and modeling, statistical and data mining techniques, new programing languages or computing concepts (like cloud and edge cloud). Being open‑minded is the key!
Our international team cooperates closely with teams across the world to analyze customer requirements, propose technical solution and guide the implementation.

As a SW Architect, you have to be able to analyze and solve complex problems. You have to be able to capture key requirements for your SW domain to define scalable architecture. Through guidance to different implementation teams you have to make the requirements implemented. To select appropriate technical solution you have to launch and supervise a study work exploring the options according to defined criteria. You have to be able to identify and set not only functional requirements for SW components, but also performance and reliability requirements (including, requirements towards HW and SoC).

Requirements:

• Defining SW Architecture for given domain
• Identifying key technical risk related to SW domain
• Analyzing performance and capacity aspects
• Performing technical studies and reviews
• Defining requirements and analyzing customer features
• Providing input for HW and SoC design
• Communicating technical concepts in clear and understandable way
• Understanding of distributed and parallel processing
• Knowledge of Unix/Linux/Posix, Real-Time Operating Systems, processors' architectures and embedded systems
• Knowledge of programming languages (C, C++) and modeling (UML, SystemC, Matlab)
• Good communication in English (both written and spoken)
• Customer and result oriented attitude
• Good analytical skills and structured approach for problem solving
• Pro-activeness, creativity and self-motivation

Bonus points:

• Experience in requirement engineering
• Cloud computing
• Good knowledge within mobile network technologies, radio system architecture, functions and standards (3GPP)
• Experience with large scale systems
