SW Architect at RBS CAT

About this opportunity
You are to join the team of main SW Architects, driving the software architecture evolution of our products in the Radio Base Stations. Based on a very high competence in software design and in Radio Base Station (RBS) functionality, the SW Architects impact how we develop new functionality, initiate and drive larger architectural changes, and how we develop the code.

Our organization is developing and bringing world-leading 5G RAN and Multi standard RBS functionality to the market, based on technology leadership of Ericsson RAN solutions. We are responsible for the software modules handling the management of base station hardware and the management of the resources used for a connection through the base station. This is common functionality for all RAN standards (2G – 5G) and runs on all our base stations worldwide. We are developing SW both for purpose-built HW and for Cloud Native solutions, primarily in C++ but also in Java and Go. We are currently working mostly with 5G, Cloud, and even larger RBS configurations for larger capacity.

You will work at the Technology Management unit. Our mission is to drive and secure future proof SW architecture enabling new functionality to be added as efficient as possible and where a large number of agile teams can efficiently add new solutions.
