RAN Engineer

Our Company

Established in 2011 by a group of technology professionals, Tellence is a leading provider of high - tech
outsourcing services. The company is focused on R&D, and its Engineering Solution Center handles
software development and quality assurance. Tellence operates in a broad range of industries:
telecommunications, media, banking, online gaming, mobile applications, internet applications,
semiconductors, automotive, security and B2B applications.

Our Customer

Is aiming at optimizing mobile networks, making them accessible to any stakeholder in the organization.
They develop and deliver innovative SON solutions across vendors and wireless technologies. Their
elastic SON transforms rigid, physical networks into adaptive and responsive “organisms” that
continuously match capacity, coverage and quality with evolving usage patterns. Elastic-SON®
complimented with SON-as-a-Service built on top of our open radio-access-network platform realizes
its promise with multiple MNOs across North America, Europe, APAC and LATAM. Elastic self-
organized networks become responsive and efficient calling for a shift from network productivity gains
to user value maximization. They call it Value –Driven SON.
Looking into the future with 5G networks planned to be deployed and automation becoming a must have
for any modern operator, they are also looking into the next generation of network automation with
concepts of open platform integrated with big data and AI.
Responsibilities

• Radio trials study, execution and analysis;

• Vendor Upgrade support;
The engineer should be responsible for supporting vendor upgrades and define the
changes required in the code to support the changes to assure smooth support of the
new version.
• Analysing system outputs based on the table below and provide technical description of the changes
in the new version;
• Analysis of the changes should be focused on the MOs (Managed Objects), parameters, counters
and KPIs that are relevant for SON;
• Analysis should include:
➢ CM - Changes in the format, structure, naming convention, keys and contents of the parameters
(For example: Moving from CSV to XML format, Changes in neighbour identification keys,
Support new cell types – as LTE TDD, NBIoT or MTC cells, Changes parameters range of
values etc);
➢ CM - Detection of new features that may affect existing modules (For example – new
parameter on neighbour level that SON’s ANR module may need to optimize too);
➢ PM changes - Changes in counters that are involved in optimization;
➢ PM changes - Changes in counters and KPIs that are used for performance analysis (Not
affecting SON’s optimization modules);
➢ Analyse the effect on the provisioning – Changes in the syntax of provisioning;
➢ The engineer should learn deeply the current functionality of SON product –main modules,
including the relevant parameters that are imported and changed by SON and the counters that
are used by each module;
➢ The engineer should get introduced with the databases used by SON to store the network
configuration and statistical data used for optimization (MySQL, Mongo, Vertica);
➢ In some cases, the engineer will need to analyse the operator’s design document of parameters
in the new version to detect changes in policy and changed, new or excluded parameters that
should be considered by SON.

Inputs:
• (Must) Samples of CM data from customer lab’s or the commercial network;
• (Must) Samples of PM data from customer lab’s or the commercial network;
• Vendor’s documentation (Ericsson – ALEX, Huawei – Hedex document, Nokia–Info browser)
– vendor’s document will not be always available – in some cases reverse engineering maybe
required!
• Operator’s design document (Usually Excel spreadsheet that covers all the parameters
supported by the new version).

Outputs:
• Provides design document defining all the changes above for the R&D teams using existing
templates under product team supervision;
• Define changes in interfaces with vendor platform for CM and PM collection;
• Define the changes in provisioning methodology, provisioning plan syntax and interfaces for
SON platform in the vendor’s specific environment;
• Define test strategy for QA team (Help on building testing environment using physical data
and CM & PM data, define testing scenarios, help QA engineer to:

Follow the process with R&D and the customer:

• Bi-weekly or monthly meeting with customer to get updated on upgrade plans;
• Planning and effort estimation with R&D on the upcoming upgrades;
• Manage design review with R&D on the product’s design document;
• Participate in R&D’s design review, test planning, code review and pre-release demo;
• Prepare release notes on the new version once it is supported;
• Help local team on deployment of the new version (Lab testing and FOA).
Requirements

• Knowledge of the radio parameters and optimization methods for the main vendors (At least 2 or
the 3) – Ericsson, Nokia, Huawei (At least 3G & 4G – 2G & 5G advantage);

• Analysis of binary and text inputs using scripts (Perl, Python), Excel or tools as 010 editor,
Textpad, Notepad, XVI32, XML marker, beyond compare etc;
• Develop tools and methodologies for fast analysis of the inputs and detection of changes, new and
missing data;
• At least 5 years of experience on radio optimization and cell planning in 2G 3G 4G;

Our Offer
