AI is central to Ericsson’s 6G vision, enabling intelligent, sustainable, and secure networks for people and industries in the 2030s and beyond. Our work combines machine learning, advanced reasoning, and real network systems, with access to live network data and opportunities to influence global standards and technologies used worldwide.\nThis early-career role suits a recent master’s graduate or someone with a few years of experience in AI/ML. You’ll take on meaningful research from day one, collaborate with global, cross-disciplinary teams, and learn from experienced mentors. A telecom degree or prior radio expertise isn’t required: you can build domain knowledge through hands-on work with radio specialists. We value diverse perspectives and offer an inclusive environment, flexible ways of working, wellbeing support, benefits, and growth opportunities. You don’t need to meet every preferred qualification; curiosity and motivation matter.\nWhat you will do\nResearch, design, and evaluate AI/ML concepts for future radio access networks and AI-native systems, including autonomous, large-scale telecom networks.\nDevelop algorithms, models, and simulation frameworks. Explore AI applications in radio access networks.\nUse modern AI-assisted development tools to prototype and iterate quickly.\nCollaborate with experts in radio systems, networking, and hardware, connecting research ideas with practical needs such as performance, scalability, robustness, automation and energy efficiency.\nTurn research into prototypes, publications, patents, and contributions to future standards. Share findings, build your research profile, and keep learning with support from senior researchers.\nSkills you bring\nAn MSc in AI, data science, computer science, engineering physics, robotics, or a closely related field is preferred. Candidates with an MSc and strong AI research experience are also encouraged to apply.\nA strong foundation in modern AI, such as deep, reinforcement, or distributed learning; generative AI; probabilistic modelling; stochastic optimization; or graph-based methods.\nPython programming skills and familiarity with ML frameworks such as PyTorch, JAX, or TensorFlow.\nSome experience designing, training, or validating ML-driven systems through studies, internships, or personal projects. Familiarity with simulation-based evaluation is valuable.\nInterest in AI coding assistants and openness to new tools. Experience with Docker or Kubernetes is a plus.\nInterest in telecommunications, networking, or signal processing. Telecom expertise can be learned on the job.\nA curious, self-directed approach: you generate and test ideas, learn independently, ask questions, seek expert input, and work through uncertainty. You bring analytical problem-solving, ownership, and collaborative skills, and can communicate clearly, including explaining AI concepts to non-specialists.\nWhat happens once you apply?Click Here to find all you need to know about what our typical hiring process looks like.We encourage you to consider applying to jobs where you might not meet all the criteria.
