## W Designer - 5G/6G Cloud RAN vDU Baseband Ottawa,Ontario,Canada Find out how well you match with this jobJob ID782425## Join our Team At this time, Ericsson Canada Inc. does not provide immigration assistance/sponsorship now or in the future for this position.
** About this opportunity:
** We are looking for a talented and motivated SW Designer/Developer to join our 5G/6G Cloud RAN vDU Baseband development team. You will play a hands-on role in building and evolving the software that powers next-generation radio access networks, working across the full development lifecycle in a fast-paced, Dev Ops-oriented environment. As part of a forward-looking team, you will also have the opportunity to explore and apply AI tools and techniques where they add real value to your work.

We are building a team that understands the value of AI as a practical engineering tool — whether that means using it to accelerate root cause analysis, improve code review workflows, or surface patterns across large-scale lab results. You don't need to be an AI expert, but curiosity and willingness to explore how AI can enhance real baseband development work is a definite plus.
*
* What you will do:

*** 3

GPP Specification Implementation — Translating complex  into reliable, high-quality software
* Algorithm Design & Implementation — Designing and coding scheduler and baseband algorithms that meet strict real-time performance requirements
* Unit & Multi-Component Test Design — Building meaningful tests that validate correctness, edge cases, and system behavior
* Requirement Analysis — Interpreting functional and system requirements and shaping how they are realized in software
* System Design — Contributing to architectural decisions and design discussions at the component and system level
* Tools Development — Creating internal tools that support development, analysis, and CI/CD workflows, including AI-assisted capabilities such as log analysis, anomaly detection, and performance diagnostics
* Documentation — Producing clear technical documentation that supports maintainability and knowledge sharing across the team
** The skills you bring:
*** BSc or MSc in Computer Science or Electrical Engineering
* Strong proficiency in C/C++, with hands-on experience in embedded or real-time software development and debugging
* Solid understanding of computer networks and wireless communications, including 3

GPP  across RRM, MAC, RLC, PDCP, Physical Layer, and mobility
* Experience working in a Linux environment, with scripting ability in Python or Bash
* Familiarity with version control and CI/CD tooling:
Git, Gerrit, Jenkins, Git Lab, or Spinnaker Nice to Have / Can Be Learned:
* Experience with Cloud RAN or vDU architectures
* Exposure to real-time or COTS hardware platforms in a RAN context
* Familiarity with Agile or Dev Ops development practices in a telecom environment
* Practical experience using AI tools in a software development context — such as AI-assisted coding, log analysis, automated diagnostics, or test generation## Challenges You'll Naturally Enjoy This role is a strong fit if you're energized by technically deep, high-stakes engineering problems. You'll thrive here if you enjoy:
* Turning standards into software — Reading and interpreting 3

GPP  for RRM, MAC, RLC, and PDCP, and translating them into clean, correct, production-ready implementations
* Real-time embedded development — Writing software that runs on commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware under strict timing and resource constraints, where correctness and performance both matter
* Scheduler and L2 stack complexity — Digging into the inner workings of the baseband scheduler and Layer 2 stack to troubleshoot subtle, hard-to-reproduce issues and deliver durable fixes
* Advanced RRM features — Contributing to the development of sophisticated radio resource management functions, including beamforming, massive MIMO, carrier aggregation, dynamic spectrum sharing, link adaptation, and power optimization
* End-to-end feature ownership — Implementing and testing 5G Cloud RAN baseband features across the full development cycle, from design through integration in a Dev Ops environment
