Implementation Engineer

dhost Global Inc, is a leading next-generation neutral host provider for indoor wired (FO) and wireless (cellular & WiFi) telecommunications services. Neutral Host for indoor cellular is a business that invests in designing and building the telecommunication infrastructure, followed by operating and leasing the infrastructure to Mobile Network Operators (MNO) and Internet Service Providers (ISP).

dhost was incorporated in 2017. We set off with rapid acquisitions of indoor Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) projects. We now own a broad portfolio of DAS across many buildings, including shopping malls, universities, hospitals, offices and residential apartments. Our team of high-achieving professionals joined us from across the leading industry and we are projecting high growth financial performance. We continue to expand our project pipelines through acquisition and in bidding on new projects including triple-play for mix development mega superblocks projects across the region.

The Opportunity

A Distributed Antenna System (DAS) Implementation Engineer is responsible for the direct supervision of the DAS deployment, configuration, testing, and optimization of wireless communication systems that enhance network coverage inside vertical infrastructures like commercial and residential buildings, hospitals, hotels, Malls, and etc. This role balances field work with office-based design and troubleshooting.

Responsibilities

• Deployment Of MNO Approved DAS Designs:
  Lead and perform the physical installation of active and passive according to MNO approved design and specifications. Ensures that the DAS is implemented according to the MNO approved plan, on time and budget. Monitors and accounts for the RF materials delivered to the site.
• Site and Pre installation Survey for the Site Equipment room and CME:
  Conduct survey for the equipment room, and all CME requirements of the site. This is done together with an RF engineer who surveys for the DAS antenna layout and feeder routes and riser locations. Assess all feeder cable routes and antenna location, CME works are implementable during the pre-installation survey.
