Senior Systems Engineer, Wireless
Tarana Wireless
Software Engineering
San Francisco, CA, USA
Posted on Nov 13, 2024
As a member of the Systems Engineering team, you will be participating in the design and development of our next generation Fixed Wireless Access platform. If you have experience in designing physical layer algorithms and driving them all the way to implementation, you will fit right in.
We are looking for candidates with strong wireless communications skills willing to continuously learn, adapt, and collaborate with colleagues across different departments. Ideally, you are a candidate with strong technical expertise and an ability of turning innovative ideas into reality through design, simulation, specification, and implementation.
Job Responsibilities:
Compensation will be determined based on several factors including, but not limited to: skill set, years of experience and the employee’s geographic location.
Tarana provides competitive benefits to employees in this role including: Medical, dental and vision benefits, 401K match, flexible time off and stock option.
Since our founding in 2009, we’ve been on a mission to accelerate the pace of bringing fast and affordable internet access — and all the benefits it provides — to the 90% of the world’s households who can’t get it. Through a decade of R&D and more than $400M of investment, we’ve created an entirely unique next-generation fixed wireless access technology, powering our first commercial platform, Gigabit 1 (G1). It delivers a game-changing advance in broadband economics in both mainstream and underserved markets, using either licensed or unlicensed spectrum. G1 started production in mid 2021 and has now been installed by over 160 service providers globally. We’re headquartered in Milpitas, California, with additional research and development in Pune, India.
G1 has been developed by an incredibly talented and pioneering core technical team. We are looking for more world-class problem solvers who can carry on our tradition of customer obsession and ground-breaking innovation. We’re well funded, growing incredibly quickly, maintaining a superb results-focused culture while we’re at it, and all grooving on the positive difference we are making for people all over the planet. If you want to help make a real difference in this world, apply now!
