ACCOUNTABILITIES:

- Responsibility to perform all phases of the above activities to agreed project time scales and quality levels.
- To represent the company in communications with network infravendors.
- To understand competition and tactics needed to meet competitive challenges and use this information to decide when/if any changes to the project are required.

Requirements:

Essential:
- Broad understanding of WCDMA/GSM technologies and the protocol stack
- Demonstrable experience of the software lifecycle
- A background in error management and/or configuration control.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills
- An interest in software testing for communication protocols.
- Good problem solving skills
- Ability to work to tight time scales with changing and sometimes conflicting requirements.
- The ability to anticipate potential problems.
- The ability to understand customer, industry and business issues, and apply this understanding to meet local objectives.
- General software development and/or test experience.
- Degree, HND in Electronic Engineering or Computer Science, or relevant experience.

Desirable:
- Embedded software development and/or testing experience
- Experience and/or knowledge of data communication protocols
- Host and/or target based testing experience
