Network Engineer

Underground Mining Network Specialist

Our underground mining products are growing quickly and our team does not have the capacity to learn the network requirements of the underground product. I need someone to learn this space, someone with strong enterprise network skills and a willingness to engage/apply that to a mining environment is the goal. I have a strong team of wireless engineers that can teach the outdoor/industrial requirements, but this person should have strong network analysis skillset.

Responsibilities:

Begin understanding our underground mining products and the network requirements to support them, how to troubleshoot customer networks if/when problems arise.

Daily interaction with other Site Comms (wireless network) engineers, as well as other client engineers. Occasional travel to customer sites, so communication/interpersonal skills are very important.

Daily would be at Mossville test tracks, but some travel to underground mine sites. Client will provide all PPE besides steel-toed boots which are partially reimbursable to client.

Technical skills required:

• Network support/troubleshooting
• Cisco route/switch
• Wireshark and network traffic analysis
• 8+ yrs network support, we focus on outdoor wireless but that can be learned

Desired skills:

Outdoor wireless (wifi)

Soft skills required:

Communication both oral and written (will be interacting with client customers) so this is critical.

Education & experience required:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Management Information Systems, Electrical Engineering degree preferred.

Disqualifiers:

This job tends to be attractive to cellular drive test engineers and this is not what they're looking for. This is more enterprise networking/Wi-Fi experience.
