- Domain Expertise: 3+ years of hands-on experience in technical support, commissioning, or field engineering specifically focused on In-Building Wireless, Cellular Coverage, and DAS infrastructure .
- OEM Certifications: Prior certification or deep working knowledge of major DAS vendor equipment (e.g., CommScope ERA/ION-M, Corning ONE, JMA Wireless, Solid, Advanced RF) is highly preferred.
- RF Knowledge: Solid understanding of RF fundamentals, link budgets, fiber optics, and cellular technologies (4G LTE, 5G NR, CBRS).
- Diagnostic Tools: Familiarity with RF test equipment, including spectrum analyzers, cable/antenna analyzers (Anritsu, Viavi), and PIM testers.
- Schedule & Location: Ability to work full-time on-site at our office , with the flexibility to occasionally adjust hours for early or late international project alignments.
- Problem-Solving & Communication: Robust analytical skills with the ability to articulate complex technical solutions to both engineers and non-technical stakeholders.
