Job Title : : RF Engineer – 4TX to 2TX Conversion (LTE / 5G)
Location : Remote
Job Summary :
We are seeking an experienced RF Engineer with specialized expertise in Ericsson RAN equipment to perform 4TX to 2TX reconfigurations across LTE and 5G networks. The ideal candidate will possess deep technical knowledge of radio transmission paths, RF performance analysis, and network reconfiguration processes. This role involves both hands-on engineering work and collaboration with field teams to ensure seamless transitions and minimal impact on network performance.
Key Responsibilities :
Execute 4TX to 2TX conversions on Ericsson LTE / NR sites, including antenna port reconfigurations and cable routing validations.
Validate RF changes using Ericsson tools such as ENM, OSS, and GPEH logs.
Perform pre- and post-conversion KPI analysis to ensure network performance is maintained or improved.
Conduct CIQ audits, verify gNodeB / eNodeB configurations, and ensure correct antenna-to-radio mappings.
Monitor and resolve alarms related to TX path changes; perform root cause analysis for degraded performance.
Update network management databases and internal documentation to reflect changes in TX configuration.
Coordinate with integration teams, field engineers, and project managers to ensure alignment with deployment schedules.
Provide technical support for site troubleshooting and contribute to continuous network optimization efforts.
Qualifications :
Bachelor's degree in Electronics, Telecommunications, or a related field.
3+ years of experience working with Ericsson LTE / 5G RAN equipment in an RF or field integration capacity.
Hands-on expertise in ENM, OSS, GPEH, and RF health monitoring tools.
Solid understanding of RF KPIs, TX / RX path configurations, and antenna systems.
Experience with CIQ validation, eNodeB / gNodeB integration, and TX path documentation.
Familiarity with Ericsson porting standards, cabinet configurations, and network performance troubleshooting.
Skills :
Prior experience with TX optimization projects, especially 4TX to 2TX reconfigurations.
Strong troubleshooting ability and familiarity with alarm monitoring systems.
Ability to interpret RF designs and antenna layout schematics.
Excellent communication skills for collaboration across engineering and project management teams.
