· $2,500 sign-on bonus for eligible experienced hires with qualifying professional tower-climbing experience. Eligibility and payment terms will be explained during the hiring process.

· Company vehicle.

· Health Reimbursement Arrangement.

· 401(k) retirement plan.

· Paid vacation.

· Paid holidays.

· Company-paid training and certification opportunities.

· Career development may progress from tower technician to microwave and wireless technician, lead technician, field supervisor, or project manager.

What You Will Do

You will begin by applying your existing tower-climbing and telecommunications installation experience. Company-paid training will be provided in microwave, fixed wireless, millimeter-wave, fiber, networking, and related communications technologies. As you complete training and demonstrate proficiency, your responsibilities will expand accordingly.

· Perform professional tower climbing using required fall-protection systems and safe climbing practices.

· Install antennas, mounts, RF cabling, fiber, Ethernet cabling, grounding, surge protection, cabinets, and network equipment.

· Install, align, commission, test, troubleshoot and maintain point-to-point and point-to-multipoint wireless networks.

· Install and support licensed microwave, fixed wireless broadband, millimeter-wave, SCADA, LoRaWAN and related communications systems.

· Perform antenna alignment, RF optimization, wireless-performance testing, and field validation.

· Troubleshoot microwave radios, wireless communications equipment, fiber-optic systems, Ethernet infrastructure, and related connectivity issues.

· Maintain high standards for safety, workmanship, job-site organization, and customer communication.

Required Qualifications

· At least 3 years of professional experience climbing telecommunications towers.

· Ability to work safely from towers, rooftops, aerial lifts, ladders, and elevated work platforms and identify unsafe climbing conditions.

· Familiarity with personal fall-arrest systems.

· Experience installing antennas, RF and Ethernet cabling and grounding.

· Ability to read installation drawings, equipment documentation, and project instructions.

· Valid driver’s license and an acceptable driving record.
