Diversity & Inclusion

Responsibilities

Help design and prototype AI-driven inference mechanisms for next-generation radio access networks (RAN)

Classifying diverse AI/RAN workloads (e.g., CSI/beamforming models, traffic prediction, anomaly detection, RAN policy/LLM agents)

Defining multi-dimensional SLA requirements for each, and exploring how these workloads can be dynamically placed, migrated, or optimized across heterogeneous compute tiers including DU/CU, edge, and cloud GPU nodes

Telemetry extraction from RAN and compute layers, workload-specific SLA modeling, and building small-scale simulations or testbeds that demonstrate intelligent inference routing and performance adaptation under real-world constraints such as latency, jitter, accuracy, and compute saturation
