RESPONSIBILITIES
My client is looking for a self-motivated Networking Research Scientist with a passion for developing solutions for wireless networking problems. You will join a team of 3-5 developers to implement and test solutions in the areas of networking and machine learning for mixed wireless and wired networks, with the goal of CI/CD (continuous integration/continuous development), integration and testing, and with time you will take on lead roles and interface with customers. Your work will involve design and prototyping of software to prove out technical concepts; you should therefore have excellent software development skills and be willing to learn new skills and technologies as needed to develop cutting-edge solutions based on customer needs.

They have several active research and development projects where we design, integrate, and demonstrate solutions for a range of applications, including network discovery, monitoring, control, rapid reconfiguration, and autonomous operations. Their work touches all layers of the communication stack (PHY, link, MAC, routing, transport, and application) and integrates multiple concepts such as coordination protocols, security, robustness, and performance. The company is looking to add expertise to their team to achieve success in all of these areas. The ideal candidate is one who is excited at the opportunity to work on cutting-edge research in an environment where they will continuously learn new concepts and innovate in collaboration with a strong team of individuals with diverse technical backgrounds.
