Physical Layer Engineer – 6G Cellular Technologies

Responsibilities

• Design and develop physical layer (PHY) algorithms for 5G/6G systems
• Implement solutions in MATLAB, Python, and C/C++ (CUDA is a plus)
• Work on signal processing, including modulation, coding, and channel modeling
• Integrate and validate algorithms in system-level simulators and emulators (NodeB / UE)
• Analyze performance and optimize for accuracy, efficiency, and scalability
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams and engage with leading telecom customers

We are looking for a Physical Layer Engineer to design, implement, and validate advanced PHY algorithms for next-generation 6G wireless systems.

You will contribute to the development of base station (NodeB) and user equipment (UE) emulators, working on real-world challenges in signal processing, RF systems, and high-performance computing.

This role combines algorithm development, system integration, and performance validation, with direct exposure to cutting‑edge industry projects.

• Degree in Telecommunications Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or similar
• 3–5 years of experience in wireless communications or signal processing
• Strong knowledge of physical layer concepts (PHY)
• Experience with at least one of: MATLAB, Python, C/C++
• Solid understanding of digital communications and signal processing

• Experience with 5G  / 6G research
• Knowledge of MIMO, OFDM, channel estimation, or error correction coding
• Exposure to GPU programming (CUDA) or high-performance computing
• Experience with RF measurements or wireless system validation
