Pivotal Commware is the inventor of Holographic Beam Forming® (HBF), a patented breakthrough in electromagnetic physics that enables its Software Defined Antennas to harness, shape and direct radio waves so mobile carriers can maximize capacity, coverage and throughput on demand. HBF offers order-of-magnitude advantages over legacy beamforming systems in Cost, Size, Weight and Power consumption (C-SWaP) and is recognized as an essential element in the 5G ecosystem. 5G leadership is pivotal to the US economy, and 5G is Pivotal.

We are seeking a Backend Software Engineer, IoT/Cloud who will be responsible for designing, developing and implementing part of the software optimizing the configuration and performance of our antennas (Intelligent Beam Management System or IBMS). This will include developing the framework for handling the antennas as part of an IoT network and applying intelligent methods (e.g. machine learning) to leverage this new technology. Our ideal candidate will work on multiple projects in a fast-paced environment, working closely with the other parts of the business including the Embedded software team and the RF R&D team. This position will report to the Director of IBMS.

As a Backend Software Engineer, IoT/Cloud at Pivotal Commware, you will:

● Develop the handling of antennas as intelligent things of the IoT network, in a cloud (e.g. Azure, AWS, GCP or equivalent) using serverless functions

● Translates the Reference Software Architecture into a product

● Design, develop, code, test and debug the software product

● Ensure secure interfaces between the devices (antennas), the hosting cloud and the devices used for management

● Support demonstrations of the software to potential clients

● Support the field trials through remote control and possible on-site presence

● Maintain and Improve the deployed releases

● Analyze and estimate the development efforts for customer requests

● Understand the Business Requirements and Constraints in a fast-paced developing environment

● Uses the latest development in software solutions

● Drive the software development from the platform implementation, managed services, and algorithm implementation
