Job DescriptionWould you like an opportunity to explore how artificial intelligence can be applied to advanced cellular communication systems?

We are excited to offer an excellent opportunity for a talented student who is passionate about exploring the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and wireless communication systems. This internship will provide hands-on experience in the design, modeling, and verification of advanced cellular communication systems, with a focus on leveraging AI and machine learning (ML) techniques to optimize their performance.

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. You will explore how machine learning and artificial intelligence can be leveraged to further improve the performance of the user device. This is also a great opportunity to develop your programming/scripting proficiency and apply these skills to the development of complex simulation environments.

You will…

•Be a great problem solver/ creative thinker with strong analytical skills

•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

•Possess good written and verbal communication skills

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

•Be familiar with artificial intelligence and machine learning concepts
RequirementIn addition, one or more of the below would be brilliant (but not essential).

•Good mathematical skills.

•Familiarity with any wireless communication system.

•Familiarity with machine learning frameworks such as Tensor Flow, PyTorch, or scikit-learn.

•Experience with data analysis and visualization tools

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 placement will begin in 2025 and we can be flexible about the start date. 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.

Rural-Remote AI Jobs: A Breath of Fresh Air in the UK Tech Scene

A New Horizon for AI Professionals For years, conversations around tech careers in the UK have hinged on a central theme: to succeed in artificial intelligence (AI), you must be in or around London (or other big metropolitan areas like Manchester, Bristol, or Edinburgh). But times are changing. Technological leaps and the rise of flexible working are paving the way for AI professionals to live and work well beyond the capital. From the rugged coastlines of Cornwall and Pembrokeshire to the rolling hills of the Yorkshire Dales, we’re witnessing an exciting trend of AI remote countryside roles that allow you to work at the forefront of tech innovation—all while enjoying the tranquillity of rural or seaside living. At ArtificialIntelligenceJobs.co.uk, we’re seeing a marked increase in job postings and applications for these sorts of positions. A growing segment of job seekers is actively searching for “tech jobs by the sea” or “AI remote countryside,” driven by a desire for better work-life balance, lower living costs, and a healthier lifestyle. And it’s not just employees who stand to benefit; employers eager to attract top-tier AI talent are discovering that offering remote or flexible roles widens their candidate pool and enhances diversity. If you’re enticed by the idea of logging off from a day of coding neural networks and taking a stroll along a coastal path—or stepping outside your converted barn in Northumberland to soak in some fresh country air—this article is for you. Below, we’ll explore the benefits and challenges of rural-remote AI jobs, the specific roles best suited for remote work, and how to position yourself for success in this rapidly evolving sector.

When Qubits Fuel Neural Networks: The Emerging Frontier of Quantum-Enhanced AI

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has soared to unimaginable heights over the last few years, revolutionising sectors ranging from healthcare and finance to logistics and entertainment. But while deep learning models have grown more sophisticated and powerful, they remain tied to the limitations of classical computing systems. Enter quantum computing, a burgeoning field that leverages qubits—quantum bits—to achieve processing speeds that could leave even today’s most advanced supercomputers in the dust. What if we combined these two forces? Quantum-enhanced AI aims to integrate quantum hardware and algorithms into AI workflows, potentially unlocking efficiencies and capabilities that are currently out of reach. Although this domain is still in its infancy, experts predict it could reshape entire industries in the not-so-distant future. For professionals in AI, this is more than just an interesting development; it’s a pivotal shift that could spawn new roles, research areas, and opportunities. In this thought-leadership piece, we will: Outline the basics of quantum computing and why it matters to AI. Examine how quantum resources might supercharge neural networks. Highlight the career paths at the intersection of quantum and machine learning. Discuss the long-term outlook and what it means for AI professionals looking to stay ahead. Whether you’re already immersed in AI or just beginning to explore its potential, strap in—this new frontier promises a radical transformation.
