Modem RF Software Integration and Test Engineer (Automation /AI/ML)

Modem RFSW Integration & Test Engineer

As a Modem RFSW Integration & Test Engineer, you will contribute to and drive the integration, validation, debugging, and testing of RF software on modem platforms. You will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to ensure the correctness, stability, performance, and quality of RF systems for next-generation 5G/6G devices. You will take ownership of feature validation, issue resolution, test automation, and continuous improvement initiatives across RF software releases.

Primary Responsibilities

• Execute and drive integration, validation, and feature verification of RF software features (e.g., FR1/FR2, uplink/downlink scenarios, carrier aggregation, MIMO).
• Develop, enhance, and execute test cases and validation plans for functional, regression, system-level, and performance testing.
• Support and lead RF hardware and software bring-up activities for new chipsets, platforms, and feature introductions.
• Debug and troubleshoot RF software, calibration, and test failures, performing root cause analysis and driving issue resolution.
• Analyze logs, test results, modem traces, and system data to identify trends, isolate issues, and recommend corrective actions.
• Validate RF software releases and ensure feature readiness through comprehensive testing and issue tracking.
• Develop and maintain automation scripts, tools, and validation frameworks to improve test efficiency, coverage, and scalability.
• Participate in setup, optimization, and maintenance of RF test lab environments and equipment.
• Collaborate with RF, Modem SW, Systems, Automation, and Product teams to investigate and resolve integration issues.
• Document validation results, defect analysis, test methodologies, and lessons learned in a clear and structured manner.
• Mentor junior engineers and contribute to technical knowledge sharing and best practices within the team.
• Drive continuous improvements in validation methodologies, automation, and quality processes.

Minimum Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.

Preferred Skills & Qualifications
