About this opportunity:
We are looking for a RF Test Development Engineer to drive the AI-enabled evolution of our radio product test platform. You will combine hands-on RF test expertise with modern AI/ML techniques to build smarter, faster, and more robust test systems for Ericsson's next-generation radio products. This role sits within the IVC team in Chengdu and collaborates closely with radio designers, test engineers, and global test platform teams.
What you will do:
-
Design, develop, and maintain RF test software and algorithms for verification of Ericsson radio products.
-
Integrate AI/ML capabilities into the existing RF test platform — including intelligent test result analysis, anomaly detection and automated root-cause identification.
-
Build and optimize automated test frameworks that cover data preprocessing, model inference, test execution, and result reporting.
-
Develop and verify drivers and control software for RF measurement instruments (signal generators, spectrum analyzers, vector network analyzers, power meters).
-
Analyze test system performance data using statistical and AI-driven methods to reduce test time, improve test stability, and minimize false failures.
-
Set up and maintain RF test hardware and software in lab environments; support verification designers in prototype debugging and performance evaluation.
-
Implement CI/CD pipelines for test software to automate build, test, and deployment processes.
-
Stay current with AI advancements (LLMs, ML algorithms, data analytics) and evaluate their applicability to RF test challenges.
-
Collaborate with cross-functional teams (Radio Design, verification developer, global TE team) on test specifications, troubleshooting, and new product introduction.
-
Participate in technical daily stand-ups, design reviews, and team knowledge-sharing sessions.
The skills you bring:
-
Master's degree in Telecommunications, Electrical Engineering, Electronic Information, Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.
-
3+ years of experience in RF test development or test system engineering.
-
Solid programming skills in JAVA; experience with Python is a plus.
-
Experience in database, such as MySQL and MongoDB
-
Hands-on experience with RF measurement instruments and conducted/radiated RF measurements.
-
Familiarity with AI/ML fundamentals — experience applying machine learning or deep learning to engineering problems (e.g., data-driven test optimization, automated analysis) is strongly preferred.
-
Experience with test automation frameworks and CI/CD toolchains (Jenkins, Git, Docker, or equivalent).
-
Understanding of analog RF principles, digital signal processing, and measurement uncertainty.
-
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a data-driven mindset.
-
Good communication and teamwork skills; comfortable working in a global, cross-site environment.
-
Self-motivated with the ability to quickly learn and apply new technologies.
Nice to have:
-
Exposure to large language models (LLMs) or GenAI tools applied to engineering workflows.
-
Knowledge of 5G NR or LTE radio architecture.
