  • Experience with log analysis tools (QXDM, QPST, XCAL, Shannon DM, or similar)
  • Ability to capture GPS/device logs and report testing results
  • Comfortable working with Microsoft Office for reporting

  • Travel up to 5% for project needs
  • May require extended hours or weekend testing for test cycles
  • Hands-on work with mobile devices, GPS receivers, and test equipment
