Your Responsibilities

• We develop architecture and design concepts for wireless transmission methods and digital signal processing algorithms based on the DECT NR+ transmission standard.
• We conduct analyses, simulations, and measurements, e.g., on performance, robustness, timing, interference, and coverage, to derive system requirements, evaluate architectural options, and identify optimization potential.
• We actively work on the DECT NR+ stack (PHY/MAC), including implementation, optimization, and troubleshooting in the embedded environment.
• We plan and manage defined functional blocks and take over time planning, technical coordination, risk management, and tracking of work packages in interdisciplinary teams.
• We conduct or moderate technical reviews, architecture workshops, design discussions, and decision-making processes with relevant internal stakeholders.
• We participate in international standardization bodies and funding projects by contributing technical requirements and actively participating in discussions and review processes.
• We provide mentoring and knowledge transfer for junior and professional engineers, strengthening team-wide expertise in wireless technologies and the DECT NR+ standard.
• We create technical documentation, including architectures, concepts, specifications, interfaces, and test concepts, in close cooperation with purchasing, test/qualification, production, service, project management, and systems engineering.
• We identify innovation potential and help shape the technological roadmap, focusing on strategic reuse of architectural building blocks, guidelines, and development and integration methodologies.

Requirements and Your Profile

• Successfully completed studies (Master/Diplom) in communications engineering, electrical engineering, computer science, electrical engineering, or a similar technical field, alternatively a relevant technical training with many years of relevant professional experience in Wireless Systems, Signal Processing, or Embedded Stack Development.
• Additional qualifications or further training in modern mobile and radio systems or in system architecture.
• Sound knowledge and practical experience in DECT NR+ (PHY/MAC), ideally including implementation and optimization on embedded systems.
• Deep understanding of wireless transmission methods and digital signal processing, especially in the areas of Channel Coding, Time-/Frequency Synchronization, and Robustness Mechanisms.
• Experience in Embedded Stack Development (C/C++) and proficient use of Python and/or MATLAB for analysis, simulation, and prototyping.
• Experience in integrating baseband algorithms and signal processing into hardware, such as DSPs, FPGAs, or SoCs.
• Experience or active participation in standardization committees and the ability to handle standards, specifications, and requirements confidently.
• Motivation to work with open-source stacks and contribute to open development models.
