Embedded 5G/4G Cellular Physical Layer Data Path Signal Processing Firmware Engineer

What you'll do

• Implement cellular physical layer algorithms on digital/vector signal processors within strict time, latency, and energy budgets.
• Develop firmware to implement 3GPP channels and procedures such as PDCCH, PDSCH, and HARQ.
• Design and implement firmware architecture to optimize for power, performance, and cost.
• Analyze and implement fixed-point firmware while validating bit-exactness against algorithmic references.
• Develop and use pre-silicon emulation systems and virtual platforms for firmware verification.
• Create automation tools for builds, formal verification, and testing using Python.
• Refine signal processing algorithms with systems engineers for efficient hardware execution.

What we're looking for

• BS degree and a minimum of 10 years of relevant industry experience.
• Experience implementing digital signal processing algorithms on special purpose hardware or wireless physical layer channels.
• Deep understanding of software engineering principles and core computer science fundamentals.
• Proficiency with C, C++, compilers, build tools, and source code control.
• Experience with silicon prototyping, emulation systems, and virtual platforms.
• Solid understanding of computer architecture, specifically HW/SW interfaces of high-speed communication subsystems.
• Scripting experience with Python for developing automation tooling.
• Understanding of 3GPP cellular standards, digital/wireless communications, RTOS, and machine learning (preferred).
