Senior Technical Lead —Platform (End-to-End) at Parallel Wireless (Kfar Saba, Israel)Senior Technical Lead —Platform (End-to-End)

Parallel Wireless is reimagining mobile networks with innovative, energy-efficient Open RAN solutions. Join us as we lead the future of telecommunications, driving innovation through green and sustainable networks. Learn more about our mission, vision and values.

What You'll Do:

- Own the architecture and reliability of a distributed, real-time system spanning C, C++, and Go, where control decisions must complete end-to-end in well under one second.

- Work across the full stack of the platform: RAN-facing protocol termination (SCTP, ASN.1 PER-encoded E2AP), a custom high-throughput messaging layer, stateful in-memory data services (Redis), and the microservices built on top of them.

- Lead cross-cutting technical initiatives — protocol upgrades, major library and version migrations, and platform-wide reliability and performance work — across a system of 50+ interdependent services.

- Set architectural direction and technical standards for a fast-moving, multi-team codebase, and act as the escalation point when an issue crosses service boundaries.

• Review and guide design for the platform's most latency- and safety-critical components: message routing, subscription and state management, and RAN protocol handling.
• Mentor engineers across the stack, from systems-level C/C++ engineers to Go service developers.

What We're Looking For:

- 8+ years of professional software engineering experience, with deep, hands-on proficiency in C/C++ and Go.

- Real experience with low-latency, high-throughput distributed systems — message routing/queuing, stateful services, and correctness under concurrency at scale.

- Comfort working close to the metal: sockets, protocol encoding/decoding, performance profiling, and Linux systems-level debugging.

- Experience designing or operating systems built from dozens of independent, interacting microservices.

- A track record of leading complex, multi-team technical initiatives from design through production rollout.

Nice to Have:

- Experience with telecom or networking protocols (SCTP, ASN.1, or similar binary/wire protocols); O-RAN, 5G, or 4G RAN experience is a strong plus.

- Experience with Kubernetes-based deployment of network functions, and with Redis, Kafka, or comparable stateful/streaming infrastructure.

- Experience building or maintaining custom messaging or routing layers.

What We Offer:

- Ownership of one of the most technically diverse systems in telecom — sub-second real-time control, ML-driven automation, and everything in between.

- Direct influence over the architecture of a growing, open-standards-based platform.
