Parallel Wireless
Senior/Principal RAN Digital Twin & AI Simulation Engineer
US · Remote · Principal · Full-time · Posted Sep 9, 2026
- Experience
- Typically, 7+ years; experience in RAN, modem/PHY, or wireless systems is an advantage.
- Education
- BSc or MSc in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, with substantial relevant industry experience.
About the job
Lead development of a multi-RAT RAN digital twin that runs production software in closed-loop simulations to support feature development, testing, performance evaluation, and AI/ML validation.
What you'll do
- Own the architecture and roadmap for a modular RAN digital twin and integrate production MAC and scheduler software into closed-loop simulations.
- Model RAN components and scenarios, and build reproducible experiments, automated tests, and simulation validation practices.
- Develop and evaluate AI/ML-based RAN capabilities and improve simulation speed, scale, and usability.
What they ask for
- BSc or MSc in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, with substantial relevant industry experience.
- Typically 7+ years of hands-on experience in communication systems, system development, integration, or simulation.
- Demonstrated experience building or validating link-level, system-level, or hardware-in-the-loop simulations.
- Strong programming skills in C or C++ and Python, including integrating production native code with simulation and analysis tools.
Nice to have
- Hands-on experience developing or evaluating machine-learning models for communications, signal processing, time-series data, or related domains using PyTorch, TensorFlow, or an equivalent framework.
- Experience with MATLAB and Communications/LTE/5G toolboxes or equivalent PHY simulation environments.
Tools
C/C++, Python, NumPy, SciPy, pandas, MATLAB, PyTorch, TensorFlow
AI focus
Develop and evaluate AI/ML-based RAN capabilities, including neural channel estimation, learned link adaptation or scheduling policies, and ML-based PHY or channel surrogates; assess accuracy, robustness, generalization, latency, and compute cost.
