Head of Radio Systems & Technology

Arbetsbeskrivning

In Q3 2022, Business Area Networks announced changes to support our contribution to the company strategy of extending leadership in mobile networks. The principles behind this transformation of Business Area Networks are to strengthen end-to-end development of our market leading products, simplify the development flows and processes, empower our developer community, and ensure our sustainable long-term competitiveness by aligning technology and strategy. To accomplish this and in entering the next phase of our evolution of R&D, we are transforming the Development Unit Networks (DNEW) unit into three new engineering units.
Hardware Engineering is one of the three new Engineering Units in Business Area Networks, responsible for the end-to-end development for our Radios and Transport products, including ASIC and FPGA development, as well as optimization of integrated software development flows.
Product Engineering Unit Radio is a new unit within HW Engineering, largely based on previous PDU Radio, responsible for development, release, maintenance and quality assurance of Ericsson Radio Portfolio. Further, PEU Radio is responsible to secure technology for future platforms and products, including technology strategy, standardization & regulatory efforts and specification of components, modules and ASICs that future products will be based upon. Executing the responsibilities of PEU Radio will be done with tight collaboration within HW Engineering Unit in general and with PEU Silicon and PEU Radio Unit Software in particular.

About this opportunity

As Head of Radio System & Technology, you will be a member of the PEU Radio Leadership Team and be part of an organization instrumental for Ericsson’s overall competitiveness, technology leadership & group profitability.
You will lead a global organization and have responsibility for the overall architecture and technology evolution of the Ericsson Radio Platforms and Products, critical for both product leadership and high development efficiency. More specifically, the areas of responsibility cover technical pre-development and early system studies, architecture and modularity evolution, driving standardization, managing requirements including regulatory aspects, release management, and alignment of technologies across platforms and segments. You will also support and enable the success of both the ASIC deliverables from PEU Silicon as well as the radio product deliverables from the PEU Radio product sectors through timely technology selections and strategy alignment.
You are expected to have excellent leadership and general management skills to be able to focus on strategic and operational topics in parallel, have good customer understanding and drive your area with a thorough technical leadership, openness to change and a strong business focus. Furthermore, with dependencies to multiple other parts of Ericsson (both within and outside of PEU Radio), you will need to have a collaborative attitude with focus on solving problems and challenges and not let organizational structures be a barrier. You will also be part of creating a strong, diverse and inclusive team culture throughout the PEU Radio organization.
The position is based in Sweden.
