Telecom network quality measurement and embedded systems for operators
NET CHECK builds embedded measurement infrastructure for telecom operators, collecting 144 million data points daily via crowdsourcing. The tech stack (Android, C/C++, LTE/5G, STM32 firmware, JTAG debugging) reveals deep hardware-software integration work—not pure software. Hiring is senior-skewed (5 of 7 open roles) and engineering-only, with velocity decelerating, suggesting a mature product in optimization mode rather than growth mode.
NET CHECK GmbH operates network quality assurance systems for mobile and fixed-line operators across Europe. Founded in 1999 and headquartered in Darmstadt (part of the broader NC GROUP with 180+ employees across five German locations and Serbia), the company combines crowdsourced measurement data collection with network benchmarking and AI-driven fault detection. Core work spans telecom measurement equipment, embedded firmware for microcontroller platforms, and infrastructure optimization—serving infrastructure providers and network operators at scale.
Android, C/C++, LTE/5G, STM32 microcontrollers, JTAG, GDB, Qualcomm/MediaTek chipsets, plus embedded protocols (UART, Ethernet, USB) and PCB design tools (KiCAD, Eagle).
Daily collection of 144 million data points via crowdsourcing platform, covering mobile and fixed networks. Work includes network benchmarking, optimization, and AI-based fault analysis for telecom operators.
