What You'll Do
Design, develop, and enhance software features within wireless communication systems and protocol stacks.
• Develop production-quality software in C/C++ and Python for Linux-based environments.
• Analyze and debug complex issues across Layer 1 (PHY), Layer 2 (MAC/RLC/PDCP), and Layer 3 (RRC/NAS) protocols.
• Investigate and troubleshoot issues across the full protocol stack, including areas outside your primary domain expertise, collaborating with development teams to drive root-cause resolution.
• Diagnose and resolve complex issues encountered during customer deployments, integrations, and performance optimization activities.
• Modify existing software and develop new code to address customer-specific requirements and technical challenges.
• Develop APIs, software tools, automation frameworks, and diagnostics that improve development productivity and system visibility.
• Analyze signaling logs, traces, packet captures, performance metrics, and timing behavior to identify root causes of system issues.
• Build prototypes and rapidly validate new features and protocol enhancements.
• Enhance existing Keysight software through feature development, performance improvements, and customer-driven innovations.
• Participate in code reviews and contribute to software quality, maintainability, and engineering best practices.
• Develop a deep understanding of Keysight software architecture, feature implementation, and protocol stack behavior to e ectively diagnose and resolve complex technical issues.
• Collaborate closely with Keysight R&D teams to translate field findings into product improvements, software enhancements, and new capabilities.
• Lead technical discussions with customers and provide guidance on protocol implementation, system architecture, and performance optimization.
• Contribute to software releases, validation activities, and deployment of new features into customer development environments.
Required Qualifications
• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
• 6+ years of experience in software development for wireless communication systems.
• Strong software development experience in C/C++ and Python.
• Experience developing software in Linux environments.
• Solid understanding of 4G LTE, 5G NR, or 5G-Advanced technologies.
• Deep understanding of 3GPP protocols across Layers 1-3, particularly RRC and NAS.
• Hands-on software development experience within one or more wireless protocol stack layers, including PHY, MAC, RLC, PDCP, RRC, or NAS.
• Proven experience as an R&D, platform, systems, or protocol-stack development engineer with demonstrated ownership of software design, implementation, debugging, and maintenance.
• Experience investigating and troubleshooting complex software and protocol issues across multiple layers of the wireless stack.
• Strong root-cause analysis and debugging skills using logs, traces, packet captures, signaling analysis, performance metrics, and software debugging tools.
• Familiarity with 3GPP specifications and wireless protocol implementation.
• Strong understanding of software architecture and development processes, with the ability to understand, modify, and extend existing codebases.
• Experience participating in code reviews and working within collaborative software development environments.
• Ability to design, develop, test, and deliver production-quality software.
• Strong problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills. Ideal Candidate The ideal candidate combines deep wireless protocol expertise with strong hands-on software development skills and a demonstrated ability to design, implement, debug, and enhance production software systems. They enjoy solving di icult technical problems, working directly with cutting-edge customers, and collaborating with R&D teams to deliver innovative solutions. This role is best suited for engineers with strong software development and protocol-stack implementation experience who enjoy combining product development with customer-facing technical problem solving.
