How much do full time ran optimization engineer jobs pay per hour?
What is the difference between Full Time Ran Optimization Engineer vs Network Optimization Engineer?
| Aspect | Full Time Ran Optimization Engineer | Network Optimization Engineer |
|---|---|---|
| Credentials | Relevant certifications (e.g., Nokia, Ericsson), technical degrees | Similar certifications, technical degrees often required |
| Work Environment | Telecom networks, field sites, network labs | Telecom networks, data centers, field sites |
| Industry Usage | Primarily in mobile network operators, telecom providers | Used across telecom, internet service providers, and network vendors |
Full Time Ran Optimization Engineers focus specifically on optimizing radio access network parameters for mobile networks, while Network Optimization Engineers have a broader scope, including overall network performance and infrastructure. Both roles require similar skills and certifications but differ in their specific focus areas within telecom networks.

Job description
TeleWorld Solutions is seeking a RAN Wireless SME to lead technical solutioning, product requirements, and performance analysis across next-generation 4G/5G wireless networks. This role serves as a critical bridge between engineering, product, and customer team-driving innovation, resolving complex technical challenges, and enabling successful deployment of advanced RAN technologies including virtualized and cloud-native networks.
Who We Are: The Architects of What Connects Us
You find the signal in the noise of data. We build the signal itself.
We are TeleWorld Solutions, and we are the strategic backbone for the world's most ambitious wireless networks. We're not just consultants; we're the engineers, designers, and problem-solvers that operators, OEMs, and tower giants trust to bring their boldest visions to life.
Our playground is the invisible architecture of connection-from vast macro networks to the hyper-precise world of DAS, Small Cells, and Wi-Fi. With a legacy of hundreds of thousands of successful implementations, we help our clients navigate the entire lifecycle of their network: from the first line of a design to the final optimization, and every critical decision about performance and value in between.
Why does this matter to you?
The complex data you will master-the CDRs, network KPIs, and customer signals-flows from the very infrastructure we design and optimize. You won't just be analyzing abstract numbers; you'll be interpreting the digital heartbeat of networks that we helped bring to life. Your insights will directly influence the next generation of those networks.
Here, your work as a data storyteller is powered by deep, tangible engineering excellence. You provide the "what" and "why." We provide the "how" on a global scale.
Welcome to the engine room of connection. Let's build what's next
