TL;DR · Automation and Infrastructure Engineer, Wireless Technologies & Ecosystems

The Senior Engineer joins the Wireless Frameworks and Services team within the Wireless Software group to advance the development of automation, frameworks, services, and validation tools for the wireless software stack across various platforms. The role involves designing and maintaining robust automation infrastructure and modern agentic triage systems that use generative AI models to autonomously assess, prioritize, and resolve complex issues. Key responsibilities include building knowledge systems, interactive platforms, and backend services to automate workflows and root-cause analysis. The position requires expertise in Python, APIs, distributed architectures, CI/CD systems, and UI test development using XCUI and Swift. This work addresses the technical challenge of ensuring reliable connectivity for Cellular, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Satellite, and GPS technologies through innovative, AI-augmented software validation.

What you'll do

  • Design and maintain robust automation frameworks, infrastructure, and services for the wireless software stack.
  • Build agentic AI systems using generative AI models to autonomously triage, prioritize, and resolve complex issues.
  • Develop knowledge systems and interactive platforms to enable intelligent analytics and workflow automation.
  • Perform root-cause analysis on complex wireless issues using a combination of manual debugging and AI-powered tools.
  • Architect and evolve scalable Python-based services, backend systems, and APIs for distributed architectures.
  • Maintain and manage CI/CD systems to support rapid release cycles and software validation at scale.
  • Guide junior engineers on best practices for traditional software development and emerging agentic AI approaches.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent experience.
  • 10+ years as a Software Development Engineer with proven technical ownership and influence on complex projects.
  • 4+ years designing and architecting tools, frameworks, and automation infrastructure.
  • Strong expertise in investigating, debugging, and triaging complex issues both manually and through modern agentic AI approaches.
  • Solid understanding of automation workflows and CI/CD systems.
  • Strong experience developing scalable Python based services, backend systems, APIs, and distributed architectures (preferred).
  • Demonstrated experience with UI test development (XCUI/Swift) and software validation at scale (preferred).
  • Practical understanding of generative AI and experience applying it to development, testing, triage, or automation workflows (preferred).
