Current Openings:

1. Sr. MAC Engineers

   (a) Minimum Qualifications:

B.E/B.Tech (Master’s degree preferred) in EE/ECE/CS with at least 6 years of relevant industry  experience, in product development.

    (b) Relevant experience:

The candidate must have a minimum of 3 years experience in product development for WiMAX systems, working on the MAC layer. The candidate should be conversant with various aspects of the WiMAX specification and proven experience in developing features of the MAC. The candidate must be knowledgeable in C, and Linux, or other real time operating systems. The candidate should have exposure to working with low level kernel/RTOS modules, and must understand constraints and implementation of real time systems.

Experience with other wireless protocols and implementation experience will be considered to be useful and relevant. The candidate is expected to understand the basics of the physical layer functionality and how L1 and L2 interact with each other and the radio to complete the entire system. The candidate is also expected to understand the basics of wire line networking, such as Ethernet, TCP/IP etc.

The candidate is expected to be mature, skilled, with good communication skills (both oral and written) and capable of working independently with minimal guidance, and to lead a small team of MAC & Embedded Software engineers.

·         Extensive knowledge of the TCP/IP protocol suite

·         Experience in designing, developing, testing and debugging:

o    Applications in Linux Operating system

o    Multi threaded and Multi core applications

o    Networking applications using socket API, Unix IPC

     (c) Job Description:

The candidate will be expected to work at the MAC layer of WiMAX products, either implementing or enhancing features of the existing MAC software. The candidate will have to work with other sub-systems of the product, ensuring seamless integration of the MAC layer with the rest of the system. The candidate will essentially be responsible for the entire MAC layer, and its functionality, hence will be expected to understand and solve issues that may arise time to time, by working with other teams in conjunction to address all the issues. The candidate will be responsible for IOT and system integration and will also be expected to work with customers on any relevant issues or features.

2. Sr. DSP Engineers

     (a) Minimum Qualifications:

B.E/B.Tech (Master’s degree preferred) in EE/ECE with at least 6 years of relevant industry experience, in product development.

     (b) Relevant experience:

        The candidate must have a minimum of 3 years experience in algorithm development and implementation in wireless communications.  The candidate is expected to have a good grasp of Signal Processing fundamentals, coding, A/D and D/A, along with real world experience of implementing them in a fixed point environment.

The candidate will be expected to have a good knowledge of OFDM and its variants, and would have implemented major aspects of an OFDM physical layer. The candidate must have experience working with DSPs, particularly suited for OFDM implementations, and must understand the processor’s limitations as well as advantages and its hardware architecture, in order to utilize it. Excellent C and assembly coding skills are a must, as is expertise in TI development tools and platforms. Knowledge of packet processing is highly desirable as if knowledge of latest RF techniques.

        The candidate is expected to be mature, skilled, with good communication skills (both oral and written) and capable of working independently with minimal guidance, and to lead a small team of DSP engineers.

     (c) Job Description:

The candidate will be responsible for implementation of the PHY layer on a DSP using relevant tools and appropriate programming techniques. The candidate will be responsible for system integration and IOT testing and will resolve issues that may arise from time to time, by working with other teams to ensure effective and satisfactory resolution. Interaction with customers should be expected.

 3. Sr. Network Engineers

      (a) Minimum Qualifications:

B.E/B.Tech in EE/ECE/CS with a minimum of 5 years relevant industry experience in a Wireless network environment

     (b) Relevant experience:

The candidate is expected to be mature, skilled, with good communication skills (both oral and written) and capable of working independently with minimal guidance.

·         Strong end to end knowledge of WiMAX Network: Base Station, ASN Gateway, AAA, NMS

·         Understanding of Ethernet, wireless networks, RADIUS, DIAMETER, Simple IP, Mobile IP, GRE, IP Tables, VLANs, router and switch platforms, SNMP, Unix/Linux, and scripting languages such as Perl, Bash shell scripts

·         Knowledge of Authentication and Encryption methods (EAP) in IP networks

·         Understanding of R1, R4 and R6 interfaces

·         Previous work experience with network protocol monitors, troubleshooting at the packet level

·         Experience in IP networking technologies such as Routing, MPLS, QoS, VLANs and Traffic Engineering

     (c) Job Description:

·        The candidate will be responsible for setting up the WiMAX core network and engage the customer in the initial deployment strategy

·         Participate in WiMAX core network integration with 3^rd party network elements such as ASN Gateway, EMS, AAA servers

·         Creation of ASN/CSN system configuration and service set up

·         Responsible for the Core Network project management and service definition

·         Plan and develop core network sizing plans

·         Interaction with customers is expected specifically at the initial project deployment stage
