The role is for a senior software engineer at NVIDIA, focusing on the development and optimization of a high-performance, software-defined Radio Access Network (RAN) for 5G and 6G technologies. The engineer will work with cutting-edge technology on NVIDIA's compute platforms, contributing to the advancement of digital signal processing. The position involves collaboration with cross-functional teams and offers the chance to make a significant impact in the telecommunications field. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in wireless communication systems and software development.

• MS or PhD in Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, Computer Science or Telecommunications or equivalent experience.
• 8+ years of work-related proven experience in software development and systems engineering.
• Experience developing PHY/MAC layer or base band unit (BBU) software in C/C++.
• Understanding of PHY/MAC layer procedures and typical performance tradeoffs.
• Familiarity with LTE/5G MAC and PHY from both systems and low-level 3GPP spec perspectives.
• Comfortable using wireless lab equipment such as signal generators and network analyzers.
• Strong written and oral communication skills.
• Strong time-management and organization skills.

• Lead the design and development of an end-to-end reference system stack for 5G/6G baseband systems.
• Optimize CPU, GPU, and NIC sub-systems for predictable low-latency and maximum throughput.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to solve performance bottlenecks.
• Troubleshoot and integrate complex software modules in a lab environment.
• Develop software implementing new baseband functions in C/C++/Python/CUDA on a GPU platform.
• Support system integration, performance testing, and system demonstration.
• Act as a technical bridge between the engineering team and partners/customers.
• Engage with customer field trials and technical teams to implement missing features.
