Python Perl CNNs RNNs Transformers Machine Learning Deep Learning 5G 4G 3GPP Wireless Communications Real Time Operating Systems Concurrent Programming C Assembly MIPS ARM

What you'll do

  • Design and implement highly optimized algorithms for power gating, tracking loops, and physical layer procedures.
  • Build validation frameworks to ensure the correctness of implemented firmware algorithms.
  • Develop pre-silicon emulation systems for firmware design and hardware verification.
  • Evaluate and integrate powerful tools for formal verification and testing in firmware development.
  • Apply AI/ML principles to improve productivity and system architecture in real-time critical control environments.

What we're looking for

  • Experience designing and implementing bare metal control firmware optimized for cycles and memory.
  • Deep understanding of differences between software platform design and highly constrained firmware environments.
  • Strong foundation in machine learning, including ML algorithms and deep learning architectures like CNNs, RNNs, Transformers.
  • Solid experience with computer architecture, focusing on HW/SW interfaces of high-speed communication subsystems.
  • Ability to lead feature delivery throughout the complete firmware/software lifecycle.
