The Mobile and Wireless Internet (MWI) group at i2CAT is looking for an Engineer / Researcher to work on different projects in collaboration with the public sector's innovation area of the organization. This collaboration involves the design, integration, and technical execution of innovative use cases.

One remarkable project where we execute use cases is the project "TDA 5G Rural", where we are currently implementing a series of 5G technology-related use cases in rural environments. Some of the tests are conducted in the 5G laboratory in Mora la Nova (Catalonia), where the 5G drone pilot of the European XGain project will also be executed.

Among some of our recent works we could highlight the integration of cellular communication (4G/5G) and satellite (Starlink) aggregation equipment used for applications such as a mobile citizen service office or a mobile Primary Care Center (CAP). We have also evaluated public 5G connectivity in the Ebre teritory and explored the use of millimeter-wave technologies for point-to-point connections in rural environments.

To strengthen our capacity in these projects and use cases, we are looking to incorporate a new member with experience in the integration, configuration, and management of wireless technologies. Key responsibilities of this position will include:

1. Integration and configuration of Radio Components: Working with cellular modems/CPEs (4G, 5G), Wi-Fi modems/NICs, IoT devices (LoRA, NB-IoT, etc.), and other emerging technologies.
2. Practical Test Execution: Deploying, measuring, validating, and demonstrating use cases, ensuring their effectiveness and efficiency.
3. Evaluation and Results Analysis: Analyzing and interpreting results for informed decision-making and continuous improvement of use cases and projects.

The Mobile and Wireless Internet (MWI) group at i2CAT is looking for an Engineer/Researcher to work on energy optimization topics within the framework of the SNS BeGREEN project https://www.sns-begreen.com/.

BeGREEN project will take a holistic view to propose evolving radio networks that not only accommodate increasing traffic and services but also consider power consumption as a factor.

The Engineer/Researcher will carry out experimental research evaluating the power saving mechanisms available in compute platforms used to instantiate 5G network functions (e.g. management of CPU states). The successful candidate will also work on the development of algorithms that can best exploit the available power saving mechanisms to minimize power consumption without affecting traffic performance.

The successful candidate will be part of the O-RAN team within MWI-SDWN directly contributing to BeGreen WP4, attending meetings and contributing to the project deliverables and publications. The successful candidate will report to a senior researcher of the theam and collaborate with other junior and senior researchers at MWI that focus on 5G and Open RAN topics and are also contributing to the BeGreen project.

The candidates responsabilities include:

• Develop a testbed for evaluating energy consumption of 5G network functions on existent compute platform
• Carry out performance evaluation to understand impact of compute power saving mechanisms on energy consumption and traffic performance
• Propose and evaluate algorithms that exploit platform power saving mechanisms to reduce energy consumption
• Contribute to deliverables and publications

Besides contributing to the BeGreen project, the expected outcome of the work carried out is to develop a mechanism that adjusts CPU power states to reduce energy consumption in virtualized UPF systems. The designed system should be portable to any x86 or ARM compute platforms.

At i2CAT we already have an established ‘work-from-home’ policy for some time. You can work from home or from the office, whichever suits you best. We expect that you attend the office two days per week: one to stay connected with your team and another one to engage with other colleagues

If you decide to come to the office, we are located in Zona Universitària, next to the Campus Nord of the UPC, within a multidisciplinary and multicultural environment. It is a very well-connected area (metro, tram, bus) with bars and restaurants around.

Our offices are designed with an open-office concept where everything is light and transparency. We have a variety of workspaces so that you don't have to be at the same table all day.

i2CAT is an organization committed to equal opportunities. That is why we seek to increase the number of women in those areas where they are underrepresented, and therefore explicitly encourage female candidates to apply.

i2CAT Foundation (Barcelona) is opening a position to advance in the research and innovation field of real-time distributed video services, involving immersive media formats like volumetric video.

The candidate will join the Media & Internet Area (MIA) of i2CAT, which is composed of over 14 experienced researchers and engineers in the fields of distributed and interactive multimedia systems and media processing, and is involved in relevant R&I projects with the European and national ecosystems, in close collaboration with key players from academia and industry.

This area is seeking a highly motivated and talented computer graphics engineer to join our development team. The ideal candidate should not only have a strong background in computer graphics development but also skills in other programming languages, such as C++/C# and Python. The candidate will be in charge of maintaining and improving the Holoconference Unity SDK called HoloMIT, implementing new features, integrating in-house new Holographic pipelines and optimizations.

Moreover, the candidate will be involved in cutting-edge research, innovation and development tasks. All this R&I&D will shape the future of HoloMIT, collaborating hand-to-hand with experts in the media and networks domains under the umbrella of competitive national and international projects (Horizon Europe, European Smart Networks and Services Joint Undertaking, SNS JU), including the collaboration with highly relevant international partners from academia and industry.

The results from the planned research and development activities are expected to lead to high-impact scientific publications, technology/knowledge transfer (e.g., open-source software, patents, contributions to standards), resulting cutting-edge software and services (e.g., Volumetric Video Compression and Neural Radiance Fields), and career development opportunities (self and of supervised of highly skilled personnel).
