Next-generation fixed wireless access platform for residential and enterprise broadband
Tarana builds wireless access infrastructure that replaces traditional fiber for last-mile broadband delivery. The tech stack—Python, Kubernetes, Kafka, gRPC, Terraform, and dual-cloud (AWS + Azure + GCP)—reflects a platform engineered for carrier-scale operations and high-volume device management. Active projects span ASIC emulation, base-station firmware, and cloud provisioning frameworks, with hiring concentrated heavily in engineering (16 of 19 roles), suggesting ongoing investment in performance optimization and production scaling rather than go-to-market expansion.
Tarana develops ngFWA, a fixed wireless access platform designed to deliver fiber-class broadband without digging. The company was founded in 2009 and has spent over a decade on core technology development before commercialization. The platform is deployed by more than 300 operators across 24 countries and 47 US states for residential, enterprise, and backhaul use cases. Engineering and R&D operations span two primary centers: Milpitas, California headquarters and a substantial R&D facility in Pune, India. Current headcount sits at 201–500 employees, with the organization tilted toward engineering-driven product development and production operations.
Tarana's stack includes Python, Kubernetes, Kafka, gRPC, Terraform, Elasticsearch, and PostgreSQL. Infrastructure runs on AWS, Azure, and GCP. Hardware layer includes FPGAs, SerDes, and PCIe components for next-gen base stations and ASIC platforms.
Headquarters is in Milpitas, California. The company also operates a substantial R&D center in Pune, India.
