About The Position
The Circuit Engineer II is responsible for circuit engineering on major telecommunications projects and may serve as the primary engineer on projects of moderate complexity. The role applies telecommunications network engineering principles to circuit design, facility assignments, equipment modeling, and provisioning. The engineer partners with Order Management, Network Design, Project Management, and Engineering teams to ensure accurate circuit designs, appropriate resource allocation, equipment procurement, and timely service delivery. This mid-level role works under general supervision and supports the use of available facilities, accurate equipment modeling, designs for provisioning, and the design or approval of equipment specifications within MetaSolv. The position is fully remote and works typical Alaska business hours, Monday through Friday. It is listed as contract to hire and based out of Denver, Colorado.
Requirements
- At least 4 years of experience in telecommunications, circuit service delivery, facility assignments, circuit engineering/design, or related telecommunications engineering disciplines.
- Working knowledge of telecommunications engineering principles and practices, analog and digital circuit design, network design methodologies, and engineering tools.
- Working knowledge of IP Telephony, MPLS, fiber optic and microwave transmission systems, radio networks, satellite communications, copper transport facilities, multiplexing and compression technologies, echo cancellation systems, and Digital Cross-Connect Systems (DCS).
- Knowledge of network topology, circuit visualization and design, telecommunications provisioning environments, and circuit database management and engineering record systems.
