5G RAN System Engineer / Baseband System Developer
TECHLA is now looking for an experienced system profile within 5G RAN/Baseband for an exciting consulting assignment in Gothenburg. This role is a great fit for someone with a strong technical interest in radio systems, communication theory, signal processing and the development of functionality in modern mobile networks.
About the role
In this role, you will work with system development within 5G RAN, focusing on developing, analyzing and improving the performance of baseband-related functionality. The work may include areas such as radio resource management, scheduling, link adaptation, time-critical communication, antenna control and optimization of 5G network performance.
You will work closely with development, design and test teams and be involved throughout the development chain, from early ideas, analysis and specification to implementation, verification and deployment of new features.
Examples of responsibilities:
- Design and specification of algorithms within RAN/Baseband
- Systemization and requirements breakdown for new base station features
- Analysis and optimization of 5G network performance
- Work related to radio resources, scheduling, link adaptation and antenna control
- Support to design and test teams throughout the development process
- Analysis of fault reports and technical issues on system level
- Contribute to the development of new features from early concept to customer-facing product environments
We believe you have
- Experience from 5G RAN, Baseband or similar telecom systems
- Good understanding of 3GPP-based communication systems, such as 3G, 4G/LTE and 5G NR
- Experience from the lower layers of the protocol stack, such as L1/L2, PHY or MAC
- Knowledge within communication theory, signal processing or radio algorithms
- Experience from system work, algorithm design, technical analysis or performance optimization
- The ability to understand complex technical problems and drive them forward
- Good English skills, both spoken and written
It is meritorious if you have
- Previous experience from Ericsson, Combitech or another RAN/Baseband-related environment
- Experience with scheduling, link adaptation, RRM, MIMO, beamforming or antenna control
- Experience with Python, C, MATLAB or similar tools for analysis, simulation or performance evaluation
- A Master of Science or Ph.D. within Electrical Engineering, Engineering Physics, Computer Science, Telecom, Communication Technology or a similar field
- Experience using AI tools in technical development work
- Swedish language skills
Who you are
We believe that you are analytical, curious and technically driven. You enjoy working with complex systems where you can combine theoretical understanding with practical problem-solving. You collaborate well with other specialists and like contributing your expertise in a team working together to develop the mobile networks of the future.
You are self-driven, structured and motivated to continuously develop your expertise within advanced telecom technology.
If that sounds like the kind of environment you’d like to be part of, we’d love to hear from you.
