A RAN Optimization Engineer is responsible for improving the performance, coverage, and capacity of a mobile network’s Radio Access Network (RAN). They analyze network data, identify issues, and implement solutions to enhance efficiency and user experience. Their work includes parameter tuning, troubleshooting, drive testing, and collaborating with other teams to ensure optimal network performance.
RAN Optimization Engineers typically begin their days by analyzing network performance reports and identifying areas requiring improvement. Daily tasks often include drive test analysis, parameter tuning, troubleshooting network issues, and validating solutions through testing. Collaboration is common with cross-functional teams such as planning, deployment, and operations to implement optimization strategies. This dynamic environment requires flexibility and continuous learning to keep up with technology advancements and evolving network standards.
Excelling as a RAN (Radio Access Network) Optimization Engineer requires a solid background in telecommunications, RF engineering, and cellular network technologies, typically paired with a relevant degree. Familiarity with optimization tools such as TEMS, Atoll, or Actix, and certifications like CCNA or relevant vendor-specific credentials are commonly expected. Strong analytical thinking, communication, and problem-solving skills help professionals collaborate effectively and address network performance challenges. Mastery of these skills ensures networks are efficiently optimized to deliver reliable coverage, capacity, and quality of service for end-users.

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
