- Distill insights from strategic customers and partners to define, prioritize and complete product roadmaps

- Outstanding communication and project management skills-very organized with the ability to multitask and prioritize in a fast-paced environment

- Detailed insights into how RAN building (CU, DU and RU) blocks interact across different splits (7.2x / CAT-A / CAT-B, ULPI and fronthaul (eCPRI/CPRI)).
- TCO analysis of telco deployments, with functional tradeoffs between baseband (CU+DU) and Radio (RU)
- Direct development experience with NVIDIA software (Aerial), hardware (GPU, CPU, NIC, DPU) and SDKs
