Experienced Radio Network Systems Engineer (212486)

Do you want to..

- Create the future for Ericsson’s 4G and 5G Radio Network products?
- Work on visionary strategic projects? The market is moving very fast right now and the right choices have to be made. Standardisation needs to be steered in the right direction. Where is the market heading? What solutions will bring most value to society? Is the performance gain worth the increased cost?
- Work with the latest technical challenges? Develop the best radio resource management algorithms based on theory and verified by simulations? Innovation and patents are key!
A few examples: Advanced Antenna Systems with signal processing algorithms supporting advanced beamforming algorithms, scheduling and link adaptation, cloud computing and machine learning.
- Ensure world leading performance in our customer’s network? Did the theory pay off live? Do we have the best performing network at the world’s biggest sport events where everyone uploads pictures simultaneously? Are the people on high speed trains in Japan equally satisfied with their network connections as they are at home? Will the system be fast and reliable enough to support new applications such as for remote surgery or control of industrial robots?
- Work with some of most experienced network, radio and signal processing engineers in the world? Constantly developing your competence together with highly competent and motivated colleagues.
- Learn from our global organisation? Have a central role with and work towards many other parts of Ericsson, such as Sales, Services, Customer units all over the world, Ericsson Research and Design.

Then this is the perfect job for you!

Responsibilities & Tasks:

• Perform systems studies in the early phases of product development for LTE & 5G in the area of Radio Resource Management (eg Scheduling, Link Adaptation, Beam Forming, Carrier Aggregation, Fast Cell Coordination).
• Develop software simulations for the performance analysis of LTE & 5G features and algorithms, using network-level simulations
• Secure Radio Network characteristics through involvement in the SW product development and testing.
• Support the deployment of new LTE & 5G products and features into customer networks. Work with Customer Service Requests and Trouble Report analysis.
• Work collaboratively on new features, simulations and improvements with cross-functional development teams situated locally in Kista as well as other teams located in Sweden (Lund, Linköping), Canada, China and Poland.
• Contribute to Innovation and Ericsson IPR. File Invention disclosures and patents.
• Drive continuous improvements of products, simulation tools and processes

Are you ready to create the 5G future?
Predicting the future is fun. Inventing it is powerful. We do both.

5G is coming soon, and Ericsson is the early leader in bringing it to market. With the commercial launch of 5G expected in 2020, and pre commercial trails already happening now, there has never been a better time for you to make your mark. The possibilities are endless across industries – from automotive and transport to agriculture, utilities, and more. At the System department Ericsson’s 5G Visions are born, the best performing algorithms are developed and deployed.
