Our Exciting Opportunity


The Ericsson Radio Product Team is responsible for all aspects of development of the next generation radio products: systemization, design, integration, and verification of multi-standard radios. This position is for our Radio Product Systems and Integration Organization which works on radio systemization and integrating hardware and software designs to validate the performance and functionality of new radio products.
The Radio System Developer will develop the radio products that will take Ericsson and our customers forward into 5G. The position is integral in the design, integration, test, and manufacturing of our radio products. Interacting with our hardware, software, integration, verification, and factory teams, you will lead the systemization of new radio products and support the implementation throughout the project. In addition, there is a strong ask for flexibility to be able to work hands on in the lab and help with radio hardware/software integration activities needed in the project and driving the execution of those activities across many radio design teams including hardware design and software design as well as other design teams outside of radio if applicable.

You will:

  • Be part of an exciting journey starting with requirements derived from customer requests into a phase of study and requirement break-down
  • Work with a group of hardworking developers in various systemization tasks
  • Allocate and break-down requirements into lower level design blocks (Filter Unit, PA, receiver, transmit chain, Antenna)
  • Perform analysis and final calculation of specifications (filter rejection, link budgets, power budgets, thermal analysis, interface definition)
  • Provide support for radio integration, performance verification and test result analysis
  • Analyze new product design and its performance requirements
  • Troubleshoot radio solutions to identify design or performance shortcomings
  • Prepare lab environment including both hardware and software components
  • Define test coverage required for integration and describe how it will be performed
  • Implement test and validation methods for efficient integration coverage and develop all calibration and performance optimization procedures
  • Define robustness and stress test required for new product
  • Analyze results and drive radio updates, perform error detection, and report findings
  • Work collaboratively with the design teams to define integration activities needed for each radio project (eg board bring up, carrier activation, closed loop DPD, feature integration).

To be successful in the role you must have:

  • Minimum of 5 years' experience working directly with radio products (systemization, hardware design, integration, or test).
  • B.Sc., M.Sc., or Ph.D. degree in a relevant area, or equivalent experience
  • Demonstrated background in the system design and/or hardware design of radios or major radio components such as power amplifiers, filters, transceivers, antennas.
  • Analytic mentality, high capacity, result oriented and ability to deliver under pressure
  • Background in communications theory and digital signal processing
  • Knowledge of 3GPP specifications, especially in Radio performance characteristics
  • Experience in the development and analysis of simulations, knowledge of simulation environments like ADS and/or MATLAB is an asset
  • Ability to multi-task, meet time frames and manage different tasks at the same time
  • Experience with basic lab equipment including spectrum analyzers, network analyzers, signal generators, oscilloscopes, multimeters and power supplies
  • Energy and drive to thrive in a dynamic product development environment
  • Strong interpersonal skills, including some team leadership experience
  • Excellent English skills, both verbal and written, providing effective communication building positive relationships internally as well as externally

Why Radio Product Systems and Integration:


Our radio product systems and integration team is at the heart of radio product development within Radio Products Canada, collaborating with many other teams to bring all the design pieces together to turn them into great radio products that allow our customers to be successful.
