Why This Role Will Benefit Your Career

• Exclusive Access to Ericsson Hardware: You will be hands‑on with top‑tier Ericsson DOT solutions and 66 series basebands. Usually, this level of provisioning and configuration access is restricted to Ericsson internal staff. By mastering this equipment here, you become an incredibly rare and valuable specialist in the global market.

Your troubleshooting and provisioning work directly affects how the company’s proprietary switches and cellular hardware interact in the real world.

• Work with the Top 1%: You will be surrounded by hand‑picked engineers from the most prestigious networking and cellular backgrounds. This is a high‑performance culture where excellence is expected and rewarded.

Your Responsibilities

As a key member of the specialist cellular engineering team, you will own the hands‑on deployment and troubleshooting of licensed spectrum products.

• Provision and configure Ericsson cellular hardware and baseband systems, including the 66 series.
• Work directly with Ericsson DOT solutions, including Integrated Radio Units (IRUs).
• Support the entire deployment lifecycle, moving systems from lab environments to live production sites.
• Execute on‑site troubleshooting and RF issue resolution to ensure peak network performance.
• Collaborate closely with the design and product teams to refine deployment processes and documentation.

• Strong hands‑on experience: You must have a background in Ericsson cellular provisioning.
• Technical depth: Proven experience working with Ericsson 66 series basebands and DOT solutions.
• Professional pedigree: You likely come from a background at Ericsson, a major mobile network operator, or a high‑level carrier deployment contractor.
• Independent mindset: You enjoy owning problems end‑to‑end and can manage deployment tasks with minimal oversight.
• Communication skills: The ability to document complex processes and collaborate across remote teams is essential.

In addition to the high base salary and equity, the company is committed to your long‑term professional value. You will receive fully paid certifications to keep your skills at the cutting edge of the cellular industry, alongside premium healthcare coverage and a flexible, remote‑first working model.
