Join our Team
Cloud RAN L1 Software Developer
About this opportunity
Are you ready to create the future of 5G/6G?
At 5G Cloud RAN Distributed Unit's baseband team, our main task is to systemize and implement baseband algorithms in our vDU product that would keep Ericsson the front-runner in the market. 5G Physical Layer is the building foundation of 5G RAN. It implements flexible multi-carrier waveforms (OFDMA), advanced multi-antenna solutions, and channel coding schemes for a wide range of services, deployments, and frequencies envisioned in 3GPP. We develop Physical Layer features implemented over various COTS (Commercial off-the-shelf) architectures taking advantage of various acceleration technologies embedded in these architectures for PHY level digital processing. Our goal is to keep our software architecture flexible enough to run on these various platforms and at the same time, to be ready used for our next 6G product.
To meet all these requirements, there is a need to have a solid knowledge on various COTS HWs platforms where our L1 application is running. In particular, the L1 software is required to be built in a way that I can be deployed and validated on these various platforms.
We are now looking for an Experienced L1 Software Developer that will join our excellent team in Ottawa and work with the 5G RAN L1 SW including production code to be deployed on x86 architecture, test infrastructure and troubleshooting, and much, much more!
What you will do
Be actively engaged in implementation of NR Physical Layer functions running on the Virtual DU side, in particular:
- Be able to deliver scalability, resilience and performance by taking full advantage of the evolving architecture and services inherent to a Cloud Native Platform.
- Strive for delivery of product and test code that takes advantages of a DevOps infrastructure.
- Foster systematization and implementation that enable rapid feature parity in a Stand Alone and Hybrid network environment.
You will bring
- MSc degree in Electrical engineering or Computer Science or equivalent.
- Strong competence in C/C++ is a must.
- Demonstrated ability in embedded software design.
- Solid understanding of LTE & NR 3GPP specifications, especially in the area of the Physical Layer is a plus.
- Consistent track record to deliver complex software solutions, on-time and with quality.
- Ability to work in international, agile and multi-site teams both collaboratively and autonomously.
- An enthusiastic demeanor, eager to continue growing and learning, and helping your team to learn.
- Innovating, adapting, and responding to change.

- Experience developing through the Cloud Native Development Pipeline and software content management principles and tools – CI/CD (DevOps), git, Gerrit, GitHub, Jenkins, Spinnaker.
- Experience with AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud.
- Experience with Nvidia tool chain, CUDA, Kernel design, will be a plus
