Overview:The Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) is the nonprofit, applied research division of the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech).Founded in 1934 as the Engineering Experiment Station, GTRI has grown to more than 2,900 employees, supporting eight laboratories in over 20 locations around the country and performing more than $940 million of problem-solving research annually for government and industry.GTRI's renowned researchers combine science, engineering, economics, policy, and technical expertise to solve complex problems for the U.S. federal government, state, and industry.Georgia Tech's Mission and ValuesGeorgia Tech's mission is to develop leaders who advance technology and improve the human condition. The Institute has nine key values that are foundational to everything we do:1. Students are our top priority.2. We strive for excellence.3. We thrive on diversity.4. We celebrate collaboration.5. We champion innovation.6. We safeguard freedom of inquiry and expression.7. We nurture the wellbeing of our community.8. We act ethically.9. We are responsible stewards.Over the next decade, Georgia Tech will become an example of inclusive innovation, a leading technological research university of unmatched scale, relentlessly committed to serving the public good; breaking new ground in addressing the biggest local, national, and global challenges and opportunities of our time; making technology broadly accessible; and developing exceptional, principled leaders from all backgrounds ready to produce novel ideas and create solutions with real human impact.Project/Unit DescriptionThe Information and Communications Laboratory (ICL) Communications Systems and Spectrum Division (CSSD) is looking for a Communications Engineer who is eager and capable to support the development of innovative, adaptive communications focused on developing Radio Access Network (RAN) Intelligent Controller (RIC) solutions using Artificial Intelligence (AI)/Machine Learning (ML) techniques and is looking for a dynamic and challenging work environment.
The Division's projects fuse advanced signal processing, adaptive communications technologies, advanced algorithms, machine learning, and sophisticated modeling and simulation to develop solutions for systems that include cognitive communications, intelligent wideband spectrum sensing, electronic warfare (EW) systems, and next-generation cellular network technologies, including 5G / 6G. The Division supports work across many branches of the Department of Defense (DoD), including the Army, Navy, and Office of the Secretary of Defense. Key products include deployed prototype systems, communication and spectrum sensing systems, machine learning algorithms, physics-based modeling and simulation tools, and system analyses.
The ideal candidate is a Communications Engineer with a desire to work with other team members while designing, implementing, testing and fielding near-real-time and non-real-time RIC applications, xApps & rApps, after performing tradeoff analysis to provide robust and optimal control of 5G / FutureG communications networks in environments of interest to the DoD.Job PurposeResearch, design, development and prototyping of communications equipment and systems. Utilizing experience and knowledge of end-to-end communications systems to architect novel and robust communications systems including emerging software-defined radio platforms and other emerging commercial communication systems and advanced tactical networks. Establish key performance requirements for various target radios across multiple operating bands, environments and targeted applications. Develop, implement, characterize and test leading-edge waveform and communications technologies enabling greater performance while enhancing EW capabilities through secure communications.Key ResponsibilitiesApply expertise in communication systems, performance requirements, and developmentBase communications structure and Design on the recognized capabilities of targeted platformCreate and analyze network protocols
Additional Responsibilities
Develop new capabilities for 5G / FutureG systems through xApp & rApp control of RICsWork with team members to develop AL / ML methods for controlling and optimizing the performance of 5G / FutureG systemsIdentify metrics useful for observation of a communications system in order to optimize communication system performanceIdentify key performance indicators (KPI) useful for determining and measuring the benefits of specific xApp & rApp implementations.
Required Minimum Qualifications
Demonstrated recent performance in development of xApps, rApps or comparable communication control mechanism for system performance optimizationDemonstrated recent performance in development of AI / ML implementations for control of a communication systemExcellent communication skills, both verbal and written
Preferred Qualifications
