Ericsson is the global leader in 5G innovations, driving the next generation of mobile networks with unmatched expertise, market reach, and technical depth. We have been at the forefront of wireless technology evolution for decades, and with 5G NR leading the connectivity transformation, we are setting the stage for 6G.

The Opportunity: This is a first-of-its-kind opportunity for experienced technical line managers and technology managers in India to take a pivotal role in delivering Ericsson's 5G New Radio (NR) solutions on high-performance General Purpose Processors (GPP). In this role, you will lead multi-disciplinary teams in architecting, developing, and optimizing L1 and L2 software for 5G — and help architect the foundational technology for the transition to 6G.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead and mentor high-performance engineering teams building cutting-edge 5G NR L1/L2 functionalities on GPP architectures.
  • Drive technical strategy and roadmaps aligning with Ericsson's global product evolution plans.
  • Own software architecture decisions considering scalability, maintainability, and performance.
  • Collaborate with global R&D units to integrate features and align technical direction.
  • Ensure software delivery meets rigorous quality, performance, and conformance requirements.
  • Evaluate emerging technologies and propose adoption aligned to product ambitions for both 5G and early 6G research.

Required Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Telecommunications, or related disciplines.
  • 10+ years of telecom R&D experience with at least 3 years in a line management or technical management role.
  • Proven expertise in wireless protocol stack development (L1/L2) for 4G/5G, preferably on COTS/GPP platforms.
  • Excellent understanding of 3GPP 5G NR standards, including PHY/MAC/RLC layers.
  • Strong skills in C/C++ development, multi-threading, and real-time systems.
  • Demonstrated experience in large-scale software delivery and agile development.

Desirable Skills:

  • Exposure to O-RAN architectures and virtualization/containerization frameworks.
  • Familiarity with AI/ML integration in telecom systems.
  • Experience with hardware acceleration and heterogeneous processing.

Why Join Us:

  • Lead talented teams in delivering technology that connects billions.
  • Be part of a global leader's transformative journey from 5G NR to 6G.
  • Influence technical direction and innovation at a global scale.
  • Competitive compensation, career growth, and a diverse, inclusive environment.

If you're a visionary technical leader with a passion for shaping the future of connectivity, this is your opportunity to make an impact on a truly global stage.
