AI-RAN Deployment Engineer

Apply Job Type Full-time Description Type: Full-Time (W2) On-Site/Hybrid, Arlington, VA, with travel to customer and test sites as deployments require Description DeepSig Inc. is a venture backed and product centric technology startup building revolutionary wireless processing software solutions using cutting edge machine learning techniques to transform baseband processing, wireless sensing, and other key wireless applications. We are seeking an AI-RAN Deployment Engineer to be the hands-on engineer between our AI-RAN products and the customers, partners and test sites that deploy them. This person will take those products out of the lab: integrating them into customer environments, standing them up at field sites, running them through test events and demonstrations, and bringing what they learn back to the engineering team. The role centers on 5G RAN deployment work and builds on a strong radio and SDR background. You should already be comfortable with RF hardware, software-defined radios and the signal-level debugging that comes with them. Prior RAN experience is helpful but not required; you will have a team of RAN and ML specialists behind you for the deep details. The day-to-day work is hands-on systems integration, troubleshooting, and optimization.
