DSP silicon and software for wireless baseband and media processing
Octasic designs baseband DSP silicon and software for carrier, enterprise, and endpoint communication equipment. The tech stack spans embedded systems (ARM, LLVM, Embedded Linux) paired with classical telecom protocols (CDMA, UMTS, LTE, WCDMA), while the company is now adopting Rust, JavaScript, and TypeScript—a shift toward systems-level reliability and web-based tooling. Heavy hiring in manufacturing and functional test infrastructure signals a scaling of fabrication and validation operations, consistent with their stated pain around testing efficiency, test-bench reliability, and CI/CD automation.

Octasic is a privately held semiconductor and software company founded in 1998, headquartered in Montreal with offices in Cyprus and India. The company manufactures and sells baseband DSP processors and software stacks built on its proprietary Opus asynchronous DSP architecture, targeting wireless basestations, VoIP and video endpoints, and converged carrier equipment. The product roadmap centers on multi-standard wireless (LTE, UMTS, CDMA, WCDMA, Wi-Fi) and HD media codec support. Current operational focus is on moving validation software to production, designing and building test benches, and improving manufacturing yield and test-station efficiency across a growing footprint.
Core languages: C++, C#, Python. Embedded tooling: ARM, LLVM, Embedded Linux, Raspberry Pi. Protocols: LTE, UMTS, CDMA, WCDMA, Wi-Fi, EDGE. CAD/PLM: SolidWorks, Windchill. DevOps: Bitbucket, Artifactory, Jira, TestStand, MES.
Rust, JavaScript, TypeScript, Vue, and React—signaling a move toward systems-level memory safety and modern web-based development and interface tooling alongside legacy C++ embedded work.
