Job description

Day-to-Day Responsibilities Cellular Test Engineer (5G NR / LTE)

Test execution & validation

  • Execute conformance, functional, and regression test campaigns on 5G NR (SA/NSA) and LTE devices, covering RRC/NAS signaling, mobility, carrier aggregation, and data-throughput scenarios.
  • Validate radio protocol behavior against 3GPP specs and log findings with clear reproduction steps.
  • Run RF performance measurements (TX power, sensitivity, EVM, spurious emissions, throughput vs. signal level) and compare results against product requirements.

Automation on CMX/CMW

  • Build, maintain, and extend automated test scripts and suites on Rohde & Schwarz CMX500/CMW callbox platforms.
  • Own the nightly/weekly automated regression pipeline: monitor runs, triage failures, and keep the suite green as firmware drops land.
  • Develop Python tooling for test sequencing, instrument control, result parsing, and reporting; reduce manual test time through incremental automation.

Lab bench & hardware debug

  • Set up and operate lab benches: callboxes, spectrum/signal analyzers, power supplies, attenuators, shield boxes, and RF cabling.
  • Use an oscilloscope for signal integrity, timing, and power-sequencing debug on device hardware; isolate whether an issue is RF, protocol, or hardware in origin.
  • Maintain bench calibration, cable loss characterization, and equipment health; keep test setups documented and reproducible.

Debug & cross-functional work

  • Analyze protocol logs (QXDM/QCAT, modem traces, callbox logs) to root-cause failures and narrow them to a specific layer or component.
  • Partner with firmware, RF, and hardware engineers to reproduce issues, verify fixes, and confirm no regressions.
  • File, track, and drive defects to closure; escalate blockers affecting release milestones.

Reporting & continuous improvement

  • Produce daily/weekly test status summaries: pass rates, new failures, coverage gaps, and blocking issues.
  • Contribute to test plan development for new features, chipsets, and bands; expand coverage where automation or scenarios are thin.
  • Document test procedures, bench configurations, and known issues so results are repeatable across engineers and sites.

Must Have Skills

  • The ideal candidate has hands-on experience with cellular testing across both 5G NR and LTE technologies, including radio protocol validation, RF performance, and conformance/functional test execution.
  • They should be proficient with test automation on CMX (Rohde & Schwarz CMX500/CMW callbox platforms), building and maintaining automated test scripts and regression suites.
  • Strong lab bench skills are expected, including confident use of an oscilloscope and related instrumentation for signal integrity, timing, and hardware debug.
  • Familiarity with scripting (e.g., Python) for test automation, along with a solid grasp of cellular signaling and measurement fundamentals, will round out the profile.
  • Bachelor s degree in engineering.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Master s degree in computer engineering or electrical engineering.
  • Lab - engineer experience.
  • Former MAANG experience is best.
  • Engineering degree preferred.
