Telecommunications Engineer
Company: TEKsystems
Location: Kennett Square
Posted on: October 26, 2024
Job Description:
Description:
- TEKsystems is looking for a Telecommunications Engineer to
support our client for various Telecommunications initiatives.
- These initiatives can vary, but some are BAU (Business as
Usual) work/upgrades, and others are project based such as
delivering fiber to all of the tower gateway base stations,
substations, or even getting fiber into distribution Substations
for ADMS technologies (Advanced Distribution Management
Systems).
- Basically there is a Multi Opco programs going on to install
and replace aged DC power plant as it pertains to Telecomm systems
within substations and Microwave/Wireless Shelters.
- This position will be on the "Operations" not "Engineering"
side, so the "Program/Projects" that are going on would be
supporting them after they are complete, but also providing
guidance/insight during the various phases of deployments.
- This Telecomm Engineer will be a "Jack of all trades" when it
comes to the specific Telecomm Projects they are supporting but are
expected to be the technical SME for overseeing the Battery support
across their various projects.
- This would include, but not limited to Troubleshooting Alarms,
Troubleshooting Batteries/Rectifiers, Performing Site
Walks/Surveys, Evaluating current designs, updating current
designs, updating standards and SOP (Standard operating procedures)
for Telecomm DC Power (All of this would be a team effort),
Coordinating with vendors across the build (Design Vendors, OEM's,
Construction Vendors, etc), also coordinating across internal cross
functional teams (UCOMM Engineering, Power Engineers, Electrical
Distribution teams, Project Managers, etc), owning documentation
within various databases, collecting and updating As-Builts,
etc.
- Everyday can be different depending on where the current
support is needed. This could be responding to various alarms,
working with Engineering teams on project based work,
overseeing/QCing builds from their general contractors, helping
create SOP's, performing training, etc. This will be a hybrid
environment (Laid out in additional info below).
- Need to be able to communicate across various levels of the
organization, comfortable in the field.
- Voltages vary, but should be familiar with 48 Volt DC, 120
Volt, or 20X AC to power to DC systems. Again, all of this is
powering telecom systems. Skills: ac power, dc power systems,
telecommunications systems, wireless equipment, wireless
telecommunications, dwdm, fiber optic network, batteries,
rectifiers, design analysis, troubleshooting Additional Skills &
Qualifications:
- This position is a mixture of in office, field, and remote.
Current expectation is that resource is in field/office 3 days/week
and right now are typically Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday with
Monday and Friday being remote (Could be in field more but no
expectation to go into the office more. Going to sites in the field
counts as going into office).
- For all site visits and field work the resource will be using
their own vehicle but receive mileage reimbursement. Right now,
this work is associated to numerous OPCO's and they are very
flexible on what office the resource sits out of. Again, majority
is going to be for the PA Market (very little alignment to MD &
DE). The resource will receive adequate training which will be
given by current engineers who support the other markets.
- Again, this resource really needs to have solid communication
skills and the ability to build relationships with all types of
vendors.
- Does not need to have specific Telco experience within Utility,
it can come from Communications customers as well.
- Bulk of work is the understanding of battery sizing in
accordance with IEEE standards.
- Need to have solid knowledge of Batteries/Rectifiers,
understanding of the AC requirements that go into that. Very rarely
is DC to DC converters, and different voltages for different
products. About TEKsystems: We're partners in transformation. We
