Job Description: Specification Engineer
The EFS Specification Engineer plays a key role in defining and documenting the internal design of radio products, with a particular focus on Radio Frequency (RF) systems used in 4G and 5G networks. The role involves analyzing high-level system and hardware requirements and translating them into detailed functional, design, and interface specifications. These specifications guide software, hardware, and system development teams throughout the product development lifecycle.
This position is ideal for individuals with strong analytical thinking, attention to detail, and the ability to work collaboratively across multidisciplinary teams. It also requires familiarity with formal specification processes and tools used in the telecom industry.
Key Responsibilities:
- Analyze high-level system and product requirements to define internal RF component behavior and interactions.
- Create and maintain clear, consistent, and detailed specifications that support development, integration, and testing activities.
- Collaborate with architects and cross-functional teams to ensure coherent system-level design.
- Review and refine feature proposals to ensure feasibility and technical soundness.
- Lead technical discussions and drive decisions on design-critical aspects.
- Support implementation teams by clarifying requirements and providing technical guidance throughout the development process.
- Participate in effort estimation and planning activities related to new features or changes.
- Ensure traceability and consistency of requirements across various specification layers. – Facilitate and participate in requirement elicitation workshops and review sessions. – Cooperate with verification teams to ensure that specifications are testable and verifiable. – Identify and proactively manage gaps, conflicts, and risks related to system requirements. – Maintain alignment of specifications with product roadmap and customer expectations.
Skills and Knowledge
- Solid understanding of RF systems, radio access technologies (4G/5G), and related signal processing concepts.
- Experience in writing functional and system-level specifications in a structured and rigorous format.
- Familiarity with embedded systems, especially those used in telecom-grade hardware and software solutions.
- Ability to analyze and break down complex engineering problems into clear technical solutions.
- Strong cooperation and communication skills to work effectively across multidisciplinary teams.
- Basic knowledge of software development processes and tools (e.g., JIRA).
- Ability to work independently, prioritize tasks, and adapt to changing project requirements.
- Fluent English skills, both written and verbal, for specification writing and collaboration. – Proficiency in DO
