I korthet

We are seeking a Staff Firmware Engineer for our Modem Firmware team in Hod HaSharon. This role involves designing and developing critical, timing-critical real-time firmware for cellular modems, focusing on performance, stability, and power efficiency, with a strong emphasis on 5G/6G technologies. As a senior technical leader, you will also guide a small engineering team through hands-on development, architecture, and problem-solving.

Ansvarsområden

Design and implement cellular modem firmware, including control flows, scheduling, RF control, and state machines.
Translate system and 3GPP requirements into robust firmware architecture, design, and implementation.
Develop modem features for SDR, 5G NR, LTE, multi-RAT operation, and emerging 6G technologies.
Design and optimize latency-sensitive firmware under strict real-time timing, memory, performance, and power constraints.
Work closely with modem systems, PHY, RF, and hardware teams to define and integrate end-to-end solutions.
Lead and coordinate the technical work of a small group of engineers, including task planning, technical guidance, mentoring, and execution follow-up.
Drive technical decisions and ensure alignment across engineers and partner teams.
Debug and perform root-cause analysis of complex cross-layer issues involving firmware, hardware, RF, and system interactions.
Drive features through architecture, implementation, bring-up, integration, validation, and commercialization on new modem platforms.
Provide technical leadership through architecture and design reviews, code reviews, mentoring, and complex technical problem-solving.
Take ownership of feature execution and delivery, ensuring high-quality solutions are delivered according to project requirements and schedules.

Krav

B.Sc. in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent.
Strong programming skills in C.
5+ years of experience in embedded systems or firmware development.
Strong understanding of real-time embedded systems, including interrupts, concurrency, synchronization, memory and cache behavior, and low-level control logic.
Proven debugging and root-cause analysis skills across complex hardware/software systems.
Ability to translate system-level requirements into firmware architecture, design, and implementation.
Demonstrated ability to technically lead, mentor, and guide engineers while remaining hands-on in design, implementation, integration, and debugging.
Self-starter with demonstrated initiative, ownership, and technical leadership.
Demonstrated commitment to delivering high-quality solutions in a fast-paced engineering environment.
Excellent collaboration and interpersonal skills, with the ability to work effectively across multiple engineering disciplines.
Strong verbal and written English communication skills.
Minimum Qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field and 5+ years of Software Engineering, Hardware Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related work experience.
OR Master's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field and 4+ years of Software Engineering, Hardware Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related work experience.
