About the role
Senior Engineer, Production Dev (QA Automation (AI & Root Cause Analysis)
What you will do
- Integration/System/E2E Featue Validation of PW products (LTE/NR/GSM)
- Use AI tools (Claude / AI-assisted engineering) to accelerate code understanding, log analysis, debugging, correlation and RCA — especially on multi-module problems.
- Identification of the scenarios, enhance the coverage to make the product robust & stabile
- Analysis of the issue/RCA on field and lab issues that span multiple modules, correlating evidence across the full stack:
- UE logs · PHY logs · DU / MAC / SCH logs · CU / L3 logs · Core logs · Platform logs · RRH logs · System logs · field issues across EMS / system monitoring.
- Reproduce field/customer issues in the lab on production-like setups.
- Field-issue investigation with direct customer / field involvement; feed learnings back into design, regression and stability.
- Automation of the E2E features
What we are looking for
Must-have
- Solid wireless/telecom system understanding across 2G / 4G LTE / 5G NSA / SA — RRC, S1AP/NGAP, X2/Xn, PDCP/RLC/MAC scheduling, PHY/FAPI, GTP-U, and the core/platform interfaces.
- Handson experience in Python/Pytest for tools/automation scripting
- Proven debugging & RCA skills: coredumps/gdb, log/PCAP analysis, memory/crash triage, KPI/counter reasoning.
