Nokia Junior Microwave Modem Architect 

Italy 

289695030

In the context of X-Haul Architecture & Specification team of MN Microwave Business Unit, you will contribute to study and define high level (SW/HW) digital packet radio link architectures and be responsible for feature analysis and technical requirements definition with special focus on Modem Design and Radio architecture solutions, keeping in mind the end-to-end behavior of the whole system.

• You will define the best and innovative product architectures, meeting product requirements and time to market needs trying also to anticipate market and customer needs.
• You will work as part of a multi-site multi-cultural R&D team spread over different locations, highly interacting with several function, both inside and outside R&D community.
• You will work together with people of different technical competence (HW/FW/SW) targeting a joint development with technical milestones and checkpoints till the functional testing, with capability to identify red flags in advance and proactively proposing a technical recovery plan.
• You will derive from high level product requirements the detailed system feature requirements, driving the development at system level with sound decisions.
• You will run system simulations to predict product performance and you will verify them in laboratory.

You have:

• Master Science degree in Telecommunication Engineering, Electronic Engineering or equivalent
• Recently graduated or have up to 2 or fewer years of experience
• Ability to analyze complex configurations, mixing different features and scenarios.
• Knowledge of radio transmission concepts (basic knowledge of equalization, modulation, FEC, clock and carrier recovery, phase noise impairments, adaptive modulation).
• Knowledge of computation and simulation tools (such as MATLAB/Simulink) for system or algorithm modelling and DSP implementation.
• Good spoken and written English.

It would be nice if you also had:

• Understanding of link design parameters and outputs. This includes the basic radio propagation background knowledge.
• Ability to work independently on specific features with organizational skills in both individual tasks and cross-departmental projects.
• Knowledge of Radio configurations (Hot-Standby/Frequency Diversity protections, XPIC, Space Diversity, Multichannels, MIMO).
• Understanding of digital board architectures, microwave technologies and mechanical equipment configurations (such as rack arrangement, filters, couplers, circulators).
• Knowledge of specific Ethernet oriented features, switching/routing in IP networks.

Nokia has received the following recognitions for its commitment to inclusion & equality:

• One of the World’s Most Ethical Companies by Ethisphere
• Gender-Equality Index by Bloomberg
• Workplace Pride Global Benchmark
