About this opportunity
Ericsson's 6G vision, first introduced in 2020, remains pivotal for transforming business and society in the 2030s through secure, efficient, and sustainable communication services. As 6G development progresses into a more concrete phase of regulation and standardization we are looking for researchers that would like to join us, co-creating a cyber-physical world.
Ericsson Research develops new communication solutions and standards. The organization is responsible for providing Ericsson with world-class system concepts, technology innovations, and research methodology. Rapidly growing demands for mobile broadband access in combination with needs for new technology and solutions motivated by the ongoing transformation of society where everything that benefits from being connected will be connected creates challenging and exciting opportunities. Building on our experience from real network operations, profound knowledge about existing standards, and forward-looking research, we pioneer and excel in innovative ideas and solutions that craft todays and tomorrow's mobile radio communication.
The Radio research area in Ericsson Research focuses on developing advanced system and signal processing solutions, targeting standardization of radio access systems. It consists of teams in several sites worldwide, including our Advanced Development and Research team in Santa Clara, California. Our team's current focus is on 5G Advanced and 6G, including IoT connectivity, non-terrestrial networks, spectrum techniques such as spectrum sharing, artificial intelligence and machine learning, modulation and channel coding, multiple-access techniques, multi-antenna system, and open RAN. We are very engaged in the 3GPP standards, including performing technical studies, developing contributions and attending standards meetings. Our team has an outstanding record in patents, standards contributions, publications and technology transfer to our development units. Two of our current team members have won the prestigious Ericsson inventor of the year award. Externally, we maintain strong partnerships with universities and government agencies to advance the 6G agenda in the United States. Our team contributes to the IEEE community, serving as Associate Editors for various magazines and journals, and participating in technical program committees, panels, and conferences. We also scan for new technology trends coming out of Silicon Valley and elsewhere. Our projects span multiple sites and countries, and we emphasize a collaborative culture.
Are you passionate about technology and love inventing new things? Are you an exceptionally skilled and motivated researcher interested in developing cutting-edge technology for future radio networks? Does joining our world-leading radio research team sound appealing? When joining our team at Ericsson Research, you are empowered to learn, lead and perform at your best, shaping the future of technology. This is a place where you're welcomed as your own perfectly unique self, and celebrated for the skills, talent, and perspective you bring to the team.
