    Design, development, and optimization of our client's testing procedures/policies for our ongoing test campaign for our telecommunications technology.
    Implement continuous improvements and best practices within the team, and larger organization.
    Operation, maintenance, and calibration of test equipment.

    Required Qualifications:
    A Bachelor's degree (or higher) in Electrical/Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, Computer Science, Telecommunications Engineering, or a related field.

    At least four years of experience integrating and testing cellular communications systems including (GSM / 2G and LTE / 4G).

    Attention to detail and quality orientation.
    Critical thinking and troubleshooting skills.

    Notes from the Head of TA:
    Not website testers
    Instead, cellular protocol (networking team) (Or maybe core network).
    Really would like to find these automation SWEs working on the networking side (not the website side) of Telecommunication, AT&T, etc
    Must know Python and OOP
