Join us as we lead the future of telecommunications, driving innovation through green and sustainable networks. Learn more about our mission, vision and values.   Job SummaryYou will work across the full lifecycle of mobile network infrastructure from lab integration and commissioning through live deployment, performance monitoring, and ongoing optimization. One day you're tracing a signaling failure at the protocol level; the next you're investigating why a cluster of cells is underperforming against their KPI targets. This is a hands-on, technically demanding role with no shortage of variety. You'll be expected to think independently, dig hard when you're stuck, and grow quickly. If you're the kind of person who reads beyond the syllabus and finds mobile networks genuinely fascinating rather than just academically interesting, you'll fit right in.Key ResponsibilitiesDeploy, configure, and commission LTE eNodeBs to work with 3 party EPC components (MME, SGW, PGW), and 5G NR/Core elements in lab and live customer environmentsPerform end-to-end system integration and interface testing across S1, X2, N1, N2, and N3 reference pointsAnalyze protocol traces (S1AP, NGAP, X2AP, E2AP, GTP-U, DIAMETER, SCTP) to diagnose signaling failures, handover issues, and connectivity anomaliesMonitor and troubleshoot RAN and core KPIs for accessibility, retainability, mobility, availability and performance and own root-cause analysis when they degradeOperate and maintain network performance management systems, identifying trends and anomalies across multi-vendor environments before they become customer-impacting eventsSupport customer-facing lab trials and network acceptance testing, including direct engagement with operator engineering teamsDevelop scripts and tooling in Python and Bash to automate data collection, processing, and reporting workflowsWrite and maintain technically rigorous documentation: network topology diagrams, test plans, commissioning procedures, and incident post-mortemsContribute to the integration of next-generation monitoring capabilities, including AI/ML-driven anomaly detection and intelligent alerting, into operational platformsStay current on 3GPP specifications, GSMA guidelines, and evolving 5G standards; you'll be expected to read specs, not just summaries of themRequirementsA Bachelor’s or Masters’s degree in Telecommunications, Electrical Engineering, Computer Networks, or a related field, recent graduate or up to 1 year of experienceBe authorized to work in the U.S. without sponsorshipTheoretical foundation in LTE/5G RAN and core network architectureComfort working in Linux environments from the command lineBasic scripting ability in Python or BashAbility to read and interpret packet captures even if you're still building that skillAnalytical mindset: you approach a problem by forming a hypothesis and testing it systematicallyAn appetite for data: you find patterns in large datasets interesting, not overwhelmingClear written and verbal communication: your analysis is only as good as your ability to explain itAbility to travel internationally as neededParallel Wireless is expanding the ecosystem for Open RAN with the GreenRAN™ energy-efficient Hardware-Agnostic technology.
