5G PHY & SoC Architect

Southampton | Hybrid | 20% Bonus + Equity

How often do System Architects get to work across 5G PHY, FPGA/ASICs, with technology ultimately destined for satellite communications?

A UK communications technology company is expanding its Systems Engineering team following significant commercial growth and is looking for Senior and Principal System Architects.

You’ll sit at the point where communications theory becomes real hardware.

Working alongside algorithm, software, FPGA and ASIC engineers, you’ll help determine how complex 5G physical-layer technology should actually be implemented.

That means making decisions around:

• What belongs in software, FPGA or ASIC
• Throughput, latency, power and resource trade-offs
• 5G PHY and modem architecture
• Hardware/software interfaces
• System performance and modelling
• How the technology integrates into customer products

The underlying technology spans 5G NR, communications DSP and hardware acceleration, with applications across terrestrial and satellite communications.

What do you need?

You’ll probably already be working somewhere around 5G PHY, modem development, wireless systems or communications DSP. More importantly, you’ll understand what happens when algorithms have to become practical hardware.

You’ll need experience with:

• 3GPP 5G NR and physical-layer communications
• Communications or modem architecture
• ASIC development
• FPGA and hardware/software architecture
• Signal processing
• System-level performance and implementation trade-offs

Experience with NTN/satellite communications, fixed-point modelling or hardware-accelerated DSP would be useful, but isn’t essential.

At Principal level, you’ll take greater ownership of technical direction and work directly with customers and partners on architectural decisions and technology integration.

Why look at it?

Because you won’t be sitting above the engineering producing specifications for somebody else to implement.

You’ll be working directly with the people developing the algorithms, software, FPGA and ASIC, influencing how the technology is built from system architecture through to deployment.

There are opportunities at both Senior and Principal level.

If your background sits somewhere between 5G PHY, communications DSP and FPGA/ASIC architecture, get in touch.
