At

Tarana

, were more than just a fast-growing tech company—we’re a team of bold innovators on a mission to revolutionize broadband. Our groundbreaking Fixed Wireless Access technology is delivering

fiber-class internet speeds worldwide, bridging the digital divide in ways previously thought impossible.
You will be working on the MAC scheduler, the software that decides, thousands of times per second, how spectrum and antenna resources are allocated among users on a sector. Later, we expect you to propose algorithmic changes that directly affect the performance of our deployed network.
Debug problems on real hardware, where the answer is often not in the software
Work with field telemetry from a live network and learn to find signal in it
Build simulations to test whether an idea works before anyone commits to building it
Bachelors or Masters Degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field
Strong fundamentals in algorithms, data structures, and the mathematics underneath them: probability, linear algebra, and enough comfort with proofs to reason about why something works
C++ or C preferred, but if you are strong in another language and have written performance-sensitive code, we will take that seriously
A project you took further than the class required, something you wrote to solve your own problem, a system you built and kept improving
The ability to explain your reasoning clearly, including the parts you are unsure about
Embedded or systems programming, or experience where performance and memory constraints mattered.
