Description
- Collaborate with Baseband, RF, Antenna, and Software/Firmware teams to define system architectures, throughput targets, and latency budgets.
- Perform PHY/MAC layer performance trade-off studies (MIMO, beamforming, OFDMA, MU-MIMO, Multi-Link Operation / MLO, AFC)
- Architect, build, and maintain automated test beds for Wi-Fi performance, interoperability, roaming, and functional compliance.
- Characterize system throughput, packet error rate (PER), latency, jitter, EVM, and spectral emissions using conducted and over-the-air (OTA) setups.
- Emulate complex real-world environments using multipath channel emulators, RF matrix switches, anechoic chambers, and attenuation arrays.
- Develop automated test frameworks and measurement scripts in Python to streamline regression testing and stress tests across diverse client ecosystems.
- Drive root-cause failure analysis (RCFA) for complex wireless anomalies using sniffer traces (Wireshark/OmniPeek), log parsers, and RF test instruments.
Requirements
- Core Protocol Knowledge: Deep understanding of IEEE 802.11 standards (802.11n/ac/ax and emerging 802.11be), including frame formats, state machines, channel access mechanisms (CSMA/CA, EDCA), and security standards (WPA2/WPA3 Personal and Enterprise).
- Hands-on Lab Instrumentation: Proficiency in operating RF test equipment:
Job responsibilities
- Vector Signal Analyzers (VSA) and Vector Signal Generators (VSG)
- Spectrum analyzers, power meters, and digital oscilloscopes
- Dedicated Wi-Fi test solutions (e.g., OctoScope/Spirent, LitePoint IQxel, Keysight, Rohde & Schwarz)
- RF attenuation matrix switches and programmable faders
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Computer or Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field.
