Energy Efficiency SW Engineer

About this opportunity
We are looking for new members to join the Energy Efficiency team in Lund!


We are creating exciting end-to-end RAN solutions at Ericsson, but we also think there are great opportunities to improve them using clever engineering and by being innovative. In our group, we are strengthening our focus to make our products more energy efficient – through both system design, prototyping and system verification. We are especially interested in how Baseband and Radio products work together as a whole, and we focus on 4G and 5G networks.


We aim to understand our customer needs better, so we want to expand and work both with existing improvement ideas, as well as collection data and visualizing customer deployments of our products from an energy efficiency perspective.


What you will do
In our team, we perform both hands-on measurements (for example with oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, power analyzers and heat cameras) as well as trace and KPI analysis to fully map out the way our products behave in our end to end high-touch lab in Lund. We build the STPs (test networks) by ourselves and can easily test different product configurations. We work in self-organizing teams with an agile WoW.


We work a lot with independent exploration of the system, meaning that hands-on exploratory testing and cooperation with many different parts of the Ericsson organization is a natural part of our work.


Our output is most commonly different types of test reports and system design reports, but through the years we have also delivered proof-of-concept code and generated several patents, and our goal is to continue doing that.


You will bring
We work in a uniquely versatile group, with a very broad range of competencies ranging from SW development, HW development, good knowledge of 3GPP specifications and also good knowledge of UE behavior.


We are therefore looking for candidates meeting the following requirements:
A Master of Engineering degree
Experience from, or a strong drive to, work with test and verification as the foundation of your continuous development
Communicates well in English, both in writing and verbally
A curiosity about sustainable development and an understanding of the importance of energy performance of Ericsson products, and our contribution in the fight to reduce CO2 emissions



A strong candidate will also cover several of these wishes:
Being curious and open to exploring systems
Want to help others understand and learn
Has a good understanding of cellular networks and is willing to learn more (specifically 4G and 5G RAN functionality)
Has a good understanding of measurement technology and is ready to work physically with HW
Knowledge in programming (we mainly use Python in our group)
Good analytical skills, to be able to evaluate feature gain from different ideas
Being able to process and analyse large amounts of data using appropriate tools (such as SQL, R, Python, Tableau, Matlab, etc)



Why join Ericsson?
At Ericsson, you´ll have an outstanding opportunity. The chance to use your skills and imagination to push the boundaries of what´s possible. To build never seen before solutions to some of the world’s toughest problems. You´ll be challenged, but you won’t be alone. You´ll be joining a team of diverse innovators, all driven to go beyond the status quo to craft what comes next.
