  • Strong programming skills in Java, C, C++, or Objective‑C, with solid grounding in software engineering fundamentals (OO design, debugging, system‑level architecture).
  • Familiarity with radio standards such as 802.11 and Bluetooth, and an understanding of related protocol stacks.
  • Experience collaborating across hardware, OS, QA, and cross‑functional engineering teams.
  • Ability to work independently, drive technical tasks to closure, and clearly communicate root‑cause findings to senior leadership and partners.
  • Preferred Skills

  • Deep understanding of 802.11 standards, WLAN MAC / PHY operation, RF concepts, and enterprise Wi‑Fi architectures (controller‑based or cloud‑managed).
  • Proficiency in C / C++ and embedded systems programming for performance‑critical wireless features.
  • Experience working directly with wireless chipset vendors to optimize connectivity performance and resolve interoperability issues.
  • Comfort working across diverse platforms including Linux, Windows, embedded systems, cloud‑managed networks, and mobile OS stacks.
  • Expertise in Wi‑Fi performance analysis using tools such as Wireshark, spectrum / RF analyzers, logging frameworks, and low‑level tracing.
  • Strong understanding of peer‑to‑peer technologies (Wi‑Fi Direct, Wi‑Fi Aware), including device discovery, group formation, and data transport mechanisms.
