In parallel with the initial roll out of 5G networks around the world, the interest in hardware/software disaggregation and virtualization of Radio Access Networks (RAN) and also the use of open, standardized, RAN interfaces is increasing. Ericsson have closely followed this technology evolution over the past years and have now decided to explore a more complete product portfolio in the area of Virtual/Cloud RAN. Formed in 2019, Product Line 5G Exilis is profit & loss responsible for Ericsson's Cloud RAN portfolio.
We are now in the process of building up a team of strategic product managers that will ensure that Ericsson has a world leading Cloud RAN portfolio in the coming years. You will be part of a highly energetic and tech focused team, defining short- and long-term product strategies and be release responsible for a virtualized product offering for 5G NR Central Unit (CU) functionality. Tightly linked, you will also work with cloud infrastructure needed for the Central Unit as well as Radio Intelligent Controller (RIC) functionality as defined in the O-RAN Alliance (
https://www.o-ran.org). The pace of innovation of cloud technologies is super high and we want to be in the forefront - this means that you will also drive Cloud Native principles into the product requirements and need to be on top of the latest trends!
Job description
This is not an easy task we are embarking on. It will for sure be an interesting journey and be certain that you will learn a lot, be able to challenge, take decisions and most important have a lot of fun. The profile we are looking for is a full-fledged mix of RAN business and technical wisdom.
Being part of the Product Line 5G Exilis team you work closely with the development units responsible for Cloud RAN products but also with product lines responsible for 4G and 5G SW, Transport, Radio and RAN compute. On top of internal engagements, you will have the opportunity to travel and interact with regions and customers, give customer presentations and engage in workshops within your areas of responsibility.
While doing the transformation to a fully Cloud native RAN, we also need find new ways-of-working, from early technical studies and customer requirements to product deliveries, maintenance and support.
You will be a key player in this transformation and deep technical understanding will be needed to take the right decisions.
There are many things on our wish list for a candidate to succeed in Product Line Exilis. Let us share some of the basics on what we need - balancing, interacting, securing, driving, initiating, presenting, convincing, following up, coordinating and aligning is what this role is all about.
Balancing short- and long-term product and technology strategies for virtualized Central Unit functionality would be great to get a hand with, and please also include the cost/benefit analysis. Interact with and prioritize based on input from customers, market needs and experts will not be easy. Securing alignment with 3GPP and O-RAN standardization delegates on strategy within the functional area and with device partners. You will initiate and follow up on system studies and implementation work for RAN features, together with scope prioritization also including analyzing field results to take ownership of the expected technical and business outcomes. Driving the implementation of the strategy within development unit networks through requirements and follow-up and finally but maybe most important, collaborate cross and align with other business areas, commercial and technical strategies.
Key Qualifications
You have an academic degree: MSc, MBA or equivalent. Most likely you are experienced in product management, system management and/or research management and of course a deep interest and understanding of 4G and 5G as well as Cloud technologies.
