About the role;
Initially the work will comprise programming and configuring mobile radios, bench service work, radio, network implementation, frequency planning and design, configuring radio network equipment. Site work is required for new installations, upgrades and repairs and maintenance. A strong understanding of TCP/IP networking as well as configuring DMR Tier III and Tier II networks and mobile radio.
Essential Skills;
- A solid theoretical understanding of RF systems including system level RF analysis and including link budget analysis and RF combining techniques.
- A solid understanding of TCP/IP networking and addressing
In addition:
Highest regard for the health and safety of everyone on site, and the public
Excellent communication skills both written and oral and the ability to build strong working relationships
Strong logic in fault finding and problem-solving ability
Full driver’s license
Enthusiastic ‘can do’ attitude with a strong work ethic
Be healthy and physically fit
Programming and Configuration Customer Equipment;
With the increasingly sophisticated deployment and utilisation of mobile radio plant (for example Tait unify vehicle). The job entails developing a complete understanding of the software features of mobile radio plant and deploying these for clients. Although not essential it would be an advantage to have skills in Node Red, Node.js and MQTT brokerage.
Systems Engineering;
Systems engineering can be broadly divided into: RF passive components, radio and baseband plant, TCP/IP networking plant, and power supply plant. A strong understanding of the four segments is required.
Assist our Senior Radio Technician with the systems engineering process associated with Mount Campbell’s radio networks and systems, including requirements definition, system design, verification and validation and associated documentation products. Particularly in regard to DMR Tier III and DMR Tier II radio networks and intersite radio linking with TCP/IP.
Our network devices are monitored with PRTG and experience in this would be an advantage
Conduct research for prospective network components.
Assist with the engineering change process associated with the deployment of new systems and bringing new systems/components into operational use.
