What You’ll Do

As a radio spectrum engineering technical leader, you will be a key member of the team responsible for promoting a healthy ecosystem for Cisco’s wireless products by supporting global harmonization of spectrum policy with a particular focus on the South American market. 

You will be responsible for developing and presenting technical inputs to regulatory forums and to the regulatory advisory groups within standard bodies, (e.g. IEEE 802.18, ETSI BRAN, ECC SE 45, Inter-America Telecommunication Commission (CITEL), various study groups and working parties of the ITU-R SG5 WPs) as well as engaging directly with regulators. The successful candidate will also be expected, when necessary, to represent Cisco at various industry bodies, forums, and conferences (e.g. Wi-Fi Alliance, Wireless Broadband Alliance, Dynamic Spectrum Alliance, etc.)  

This position requires an industry veteran with deep knowledge of both international spectrum regulation and wireless standards as well as previous experience in dealing with regulators, regulatory issues, and their associated national processes in North and South America.

Who You’ll Work With

You’ll be working in the wireless CTO’s team and will work closely with colleagues from all over the company including product engineering, compliance, government affairs, standards, as well as our customer and partner organization.   

Who You Are

Ideally you-

 

·       understand radio compatibility “sharing studies” and the tools used to generate related technical proofs.

·       are familiar with the mechanics of regulatory and compliance texts such as the ITU Radio Regulations, the working procedures, publications, and structure of CITEL, and title 47 of the Code of Federal Regulations in the US.

·       understand the differing spectrum licensing regimes and spectrum access systems.

·       have some prior knowledge of the operational characteristics of other radio services including radar, fixed terrestrial, and space.

·       have a broad knowledge of propagation physics and the current generation of radio electronics behind Wi-Fi and 5G.

·       can construct and defend technical arguments in the face of political, non-technical opposition.

·       Fluent Spanish speaker

·       Familiar with regulatory processes and actors in key LATAM markets

 
Message to applicants applying to work in the U.S. and/or Canada:

When available, the salary range posted for this position reflects the projected hiring range for new hire, full-time salaries in U.S. and/or Canada locations, not including equity or benefits. For non-sales roles the hiring ranges reflect base salary only; employees are also eligible to receive annual bonuses. Hiring ranges for sales positions include base and incentive compensation target. Individual pay is determined by the candidate's hiring location and additional factors, including but not limited to skillset, experience, and relevant education, certifications, or training. Applicants may not be eligible for the full salary range based on their U.S. or Canada hiring location. The recruiter can share more details about compensation for the role in your location during the hiring process.

U.S. employees have access to quality medical, dental and vision insurance, a 401(k) plan with a Cisco matching contribution, short and long-term disability coverage, basic life insurance and numerous wellbeing offerings. Employees receive up to twelve paid holidays per calendar year, which includes one floating holiday, plus a day off for their birthday. Employees accrue up to 20 days of Paid Time Off (PTO) each year and have access to paid time away to deal with critical or emergency issues without tapping into their PTO. We offer additional paid time to volunteer and give back to the community. Employees are also able to purchase company stock through our Employee Stock Purchase Program.

Employees on sales plans earn performance-based incentive pay on top of their base salary, which is split between quota and non-quota components. For quota-based incentive pay, Cisco typically pays as follows:

.75% of incentive target for each 1% of revenue attainment up to 50% of quota;

1.5% of incentive target for each 1% of attainment between 50% and 75%;

1% of incentive target for each 1% of attainment between 75% and 100%; and once performance exceeds 100% attainment, incentive rates are at or above 1% for each 1% of attainment with no cap on incentive compensation.

For non-quota-based sales performance elements such as strategic sales objectives, Cisco may pay up to 125% of target. Cisco sales plans do not have a minimum threshold of performance for sales incentive compensation to be paid.
