We are seeking an experienced Senior Software Engineer with a strong background in telecommunications, 4G/LTE protocol stack development, and real-time systems programming.

The ideal candidate will have hands-on expertise in LTE control-plane and data-plane layers (RRC, MAC, RLC, PDCP) and proven skills in C/C++ development on Unix/Linux environments. This role is focused on core product development, feature implementation, and field issue resolution—not QA, testing, or integration. You’ll work closely with cross-functional teams to design, code, and deliver high-performance LTE solutions.

- Design and develop 4G/LTE protocol stack features (control-plane & data-plane).

- Work on protocol layers such as RRC, LTE-MAC, RLC, and PDCP.

- Write, optimize, and debug C/C++ code on Unix/Linux/POSIX real-time operating systems.

- Analyze and resolve customer-reported and internal QA issues.

- Handle field issues, debugging, and customer support escalations.

- Bring up and maintain LTE test setups in a running state.

- Collaborate with peers to augment LTE/5G knowledge and drive engineering productivity.

- Contribute to product performance improvements and ensure high-quality deliverables.

- Proven experience in telecom software development (LTE / 4G, preferably with exposure to 5G).

- Strong expertise in protocol development (RRC, MAC, RLC, PDCP).

- Excellent design and coding skills in C/C++.

- Hands-on experience with Unix/Linux real-time operating systems.

- Strong problem-solving and debugging skills for complex telecom systems.
