Wireless rf Systems Engineer; 5g

Position: Wireless rf Systems Engineer (5g)
Globalstar (NASDAQ: GSAT) is a leading provider of mobile satellite and terrestrial connectivity solutions with a comprehensive connectivity ecosystem, including XCOM RAN, its software-defined private wireless platform purpose-built for mission-critical network communications.

XCOM RAN delivers a next-generation Radio Access Network platform designed to deliver secure, high-performance private wireless connectivity for enterprises and government organizations. XCOM RAN has an advanced software-defined architecture and enables the creation of wide-area "Supercells" that eliminate handoffs and optimize throughput. The solution is engineered for mission-critical environments where reliability, scalability, and low-latency performance are essential, from smart logistics and industrial automation to defense, emergency response, and more.

What you'll be doing

As a RF Wireless Systems Engineer (5G), you will work as part of a team developing solutions that solve complex and challenging problems spanning diverse industries and verticals. This involves cross-layer RF system design and optimization, modeling, and performance analysis at the rf digital boundary. The successful candidate is expected to have a deep knowledge of the 3

GPP/FCC requirements of LTE and  interfaces, with hands-on expertise in both lab environments and algorithm development.

What you will bring to XCOM RAN by Globalstar

* MSEE with at least 5 years of experience with wireless systems design and engineering, OR BSEE with at least 7+ years of experience with wireless systems design and engineering.

* Detailed knowledge of wireless communication systems, including physical layer signal processing and RF transceiver architectures.

* Recent and direct knowledge of 3

GPP 4G/5G RAN specifications, including conformance test requirements and procedures.

* Experience working on LTE/ or standardization.

* Proficiency with RF and vector signal test equipment, including oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, vector signal analyzers, for system validation and debug.

* Experience with digital filter analysis and design using MATLAB, Python, or equivalent tools, including hands-on algorithm development, evaluation, and product integration.

* Hands-on experience implementing or optimizing RF transmitter algorithms such as Digital Pre-Distortion (DPD), Automatic Gain Control (AGC), and Crest Factor Reduction (CFR).

* Experience debugging RF systems, including receiver and transmitter performance, noise figure, transmit linearity, and distortion.

* Knowledge of PLLs, RF noise figure, transmit linearity, and distortion characteristics in wireless transceiver systems.

It's a bonus if you have:

* Experience with link budget analysis or system performance modeling.

* Experience attending or contributing to 3

GPP RAN working groups, particularly RAN
4.

* Familiarity with OTA (Over-the-Air) conformance testing methodologies and test chambers.

Physical Requirements:
