• Work with customers to gather requirements and collaborate with MNO network planning and RF engineering teams, neutral host operators, and local service integrators
• Partner with the Airgain design engineers to meet customer requirements
• Deliver technical presentations and training to internal and external customers
• Troubleshoot and document field issues
• Support QBRs, contribute to sales and marketing strategic planning and execution
• Develop and deliver compelling TCO and deployment-speed comparisons against traditional DAS systems to support the sales process
• Maintain deep credibility with senior RF engineers, network architects, and technical buyers at Tier 1 and Tier 2 carriers

• Strong understanding of user devices, Radio Networks, and Core Networks
• Working knowledge of 5G NR fundamentals — including mmWave, Sub-6 GHz, FR1/FR2, SA/NSA architectures, and their implications across indoor, outdoor, and hybrid coverage scenarios
• Understanding of commonly used communication protocols (TCP, UDP, ICMP, etc.)
• Able to travel 40%+ of the time throughout the US — carrier and enterprise relationships are built in person
• Excellent problem-solving, communication skills and collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively in a team environment.
• Attention to detail and a commitment to delivering high-quality results.
• Proficiency in Microsoft tools required
• Excellent written, verbal and presentation skills
• Excellent organizational and time-management skills, with the ability to prioritize multiple tasks while meeting strict deadlines

• Prior experience in a carrier-facing technical sales or engineering role at a DAS, small cell, or wireless infrastructure vendor (e.g., CommScope, Boingo, ExteNet, JMA Wireless, Galtronics, SOLiD) or within an MNO’s network engineering or deployment team
• Demonstrated ability to navigate MNO evaluation and procurement cycles — including lab qualifications, field trials, and multi-stakeholder technical reviews
• Proficient at using high speed data communication test equipment
• Debugging cell coverage, APNs, SIMs, terminal programs, and power supplies
• Advanced customer interaction and relationship management skills (engineering and senior executive levels)
