NEC Telecom MODUS Ltd. is the UK R&D centre of NEC Corporation, a global technology leader shaping the future of 5G Advanced and 6G networks. Our innovations power operators worldwide, and our engineers actively contribute to international standards and forums.
The Role
We’re looking for a Consultant or Principal Engineer to design and evaluate Radio Resource Management (RRM) and Network Optimisation algorithms, including AI/ML-driven solutions for NEC’s next-generation O-RAN 5G products.
You’ll combine original thinking with advanced simulation and data analysis to enhance NEC’s RRM and optimisation capabilities.
Key Responsibilities
1. Design and evaluate new RRM and optimisation algorithms (e.g. QoE, traffic steering, Massive MIMO, RAN sharing).
2. Develop and run C++, MATLAB, and Python simulations; analyse results and generate insights.
3. Contribute to feature specifications and technical documentation.
4. Collaborate globally with NEC technical teams to drive innovation and quality improvements.
About You
5. Strong background in AI/ML techniques (e.g. supervised or reinforcement learning) using TensorFlow, Keras, or PyTorch.
6. Solid understanding of mobile communications systems.
7. Proficient in C++, MATLAB, and Python.
8. Excellent analytical, mathematical, and communication skills.
9. Motivated, collaborative, and able to innovate under pressure.
Desirable:
10. Experience designing RRM/network optimisation algorithms.
11. Knowledge of system-level network simulation or ns-3.
12. Work related to ad-hoc networks.
Qualifications
Ideally a PhD applying AI/ML to mobile network optimisation (or equivalent experience).
