Cellular Communication Systems Modeling Internship 2025

Cellular Communication Systems Modeling Internship 2025

Would you like an opportunity to work with advanced cellular communication systems?

We have an excellent opportunity for a talented student who is interested in learning more about the design, modeling and verification of advanced cellular communication systems.

As MediaTek’s successful placement student, you will work as part of a small (but outstanding) R&D team that is responsible for driving innovation in advanced cellular communication systems, starting from the definition of new communication systems standards up to the design and verification of modem chipsets implementing these new cellular protocols.

This is a fantastic opportunity to gain exposure to new cellular communication standards such as 5G/6G, allowing you to understand how these new communication standards are applied in the design and implementation of the devices used by consumers to exchange information over these wireless links. Using a combination of theoretical analysis, architecture design and software simulations, you will be involved in the modeling of the user device at the system level and the interpretation of key performance indicators. This is also a great opportunity to develop your programming/scripting proficiency and apply these skills to the development of complex simulation environments.

What kind of person we are looking for?

•Be a great problem solver/ creative thinker.

•Be someone who enjoys picking up new skills quickly, through informal learning.

•Be self-motivated and able to work both in a team and autonomously.

•Have programming experience (ideally in Python, C or C++)

In addition, one or more of the below would be brilliant (but not essential):

•Good mathematical skills

•Familiarity with any wireless communication system

•Good system-level design and understanding of dataflow management in communications systems

What we’ll offer you in return

•Convenient location (Cambourne), very close to Cambridge and served by very frequent bus services from Cambridge

•Excellent and varied experience working on real projects in a leading, global, high-tech company

•Opportunity to work with skilled engineers, as well as with other interns

Duration

The length of the internship will need to be between 9 to 12 months long.

Location

This internship will be at our Cambourne, Cambridge shire office, based 9 miles outside Cambridge city Centre (with frequent direct bus services). Cambridge is also conveniently located within one hour from Central London, four main London airports and The Eurostar.
