Position Summary:


Salient Global Technologies CORP is seeking a highly skilled RAN Software Development Engineer to design, develop, and deploy advanced network solutions supporting LTE, 5G, and next-generation wireless technologies.

This position requires a Masters degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a closely related field (or foreign equivalent), and a minimum of two (2) years of experience in LTE and 5G network engineering.

Candidates with degrees from accredited U.S. institutions are strongly encouraged to apply.

Key Responsibilities:


  • Design, develop, and deploy Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) APIs on network devices by interpreting technical and business requirements.

  • Design LTE/5G/6G end-to-end call flows from Radio to Core network; provide protocol parameter templates, unit test cases, and API documentation.

  • Develop high-level architecture diagrams, testing strategies, and detailed execution plans.

  • Execute and validate end-to-end test plans; collect and analyze technical and business data.

  • Prepare executive summaries and technical presentations for internal and client stakeholders.

  • Serve as a domain expert for RAN call flows, UE protocol stack operations, and integration across Radio, Core, and Front-End Applications.

  • Install and configure multi-vendor network products (Cisco, Ciena, Nokia, Samsung, Ericsson) in lab, test, and pre-production environments.

  • Develop and execute test cases for protocol layers such as RRC, MAC, PDCP, RLC, and SDAP.

  • Analyze and troubleshoot signaling and user-plane protocol issues and implement corrective solutions.

  • Design and implement debug harnesses and instrumentation for baseband chip validation.

  • Capture and process RF data using tools such as QXDM, Channel Emulator, Spectrum Analyzers, Signal Generators, and AI-based tools.

  • Configure radios for various engineering parameters (e.g., RF slicing, power, frequency, bandwidth, modulation).

  • Validate conformity and compliance specifications for Radios under test; perform RF path loss calculations, system modeling, and predictions.

  • Develop software applications for I/Q RF stream data collection and post-analysis.

  • Capture and replicate commercial core network architecture within lab test environments.

  • Design and implement packet capture harnesses for core network analysis.

  • Develop and maintain applications using Python, C, Shell, and Go programming languages.

  • Implement CI/CD pipelines using Red Hat OpenShift and OpenStack environments.
