Job Summary
We are seeking a highly motivated and detail-oriented RF Engineer III to join a dedicated RF Design support team covering the Big East region. This mid-to-senior level role is responsible for executing a variety of project-based tasks, including site modifications and small cell projects.
As an RF Engineer III, you will own tasks spanning the entire project lifecycle from initial site review and design, through regulatory and cell build technical documentation, up to the final in-service phase. You will work in close collaboration with Real Estate, Construction, Project Management (PM) teams, and other RF engineers to ensure successful, timely, and compliant project execution.

Key Responsibilities & Job Duties
  • End-to-End Project Execution: Manage and support various project-based tasks for RF Design, focusing on modification and small cells projects.
  • Network Design & Optimization: Lead the design and optimization of 5GHR (Tanglewood) networks, including performance analysis and troubleshooting.
  • Performance Analysis: Monitor and analyze 5G mmW and C-Band network KPIs and key parameters to ensure high network reliability and capacity.
  • Model Tuning: Perform RF propagation model tuning to improve simulation accuracy across the target markets.
  • Data & Tool Management: Utilize advanced data tools, including SQL scripting, VB Scripting, and Google Suite (including advanced Apps Script automation and sheet manipulation) to automate reporting and analyze network data.
  • Documentation & Compliance: Review, interpret, and maintain critical regulatory and technical cell build documentation (including ZD/CDs).
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Act as a core engineering partner working alongside Real Estate, Construction, PMs, and regional RF engineering teams to drive projects across the finish line.
  • Field & Remote Assessments: Perform the vast majority of site reviews remotely, while remaining flexible to travel for on-site field visits when necessary.
