Will provide CPE (WiFi Router and Extender) validation engineering Services including but not limited to:
- Perform tasks pertaining to CPE validation & automation
- Handson and create new test cases for chamberbased WiFi testing like Candela Octoscope and/or Veriwave
- Write TR069 related scripts
- Customize scripts per vendor including ports wifi radios SSID packets etc.
- Generate TPut KPI and other performance metrics for the devices being tested
- Write shell scripts to validate CPE (i.e. TR069 routers) on the network
Scope / Timeline / Sample tasklist
- The candidate will work with professional lab test equipment (e.g. Candela Octoscope and/or Veriwave WiFi equipment spectrum analyzers network analyzers).
- Write detailed test plans test cases methodically document the test steps and results
- The candidate will primarily work on testing and debugging WiFi mesh networking equipment including router (Residential Gateway) and mesh extenders in a lab setting as well as in reallife environments.
- The candidate will validate WiFi connectivity: Test peak and average throughput maximum connectivity airtime fairness latency ratevsrange mesh roaming MUMIMO performance spatial consistency collect RSSI and SINR from routers and WiFi clients to measure coverage.
- The candidate will work with multiple vendor equipment: Validation qualification vendor comparison.
- The candidate will write TR069 related shell scripts to control WiFi devices orchestrate test scenarios and collect KPIs. Scripts need to be modified to handle differences between vendors (e.g. number ethernet ports wifi radios and supported number of SSIDs).
