Our Underground Mining products are growing quickly and our team does not have the capacity to learn the network requirements of the underground product. I need someone to learn this space, someone with strong enterprise network skills and a willingness to engage/apply that to a mining environment is the goal. I have a strong team of wireless engineers
that can teach the outdoor/industrial requirements, but this person should have strong network analysis skillset.
Reason/motivation for request:
Addition
Why this Role?
Learning Caterpillar’s autonomy technology.
They will be exposed to CAT engineering and technology side of it which is the leading edge of the heavy equipment autonomation industry.
Typical Day or Week in the Role
Typical task breakdown:
Begin understanding our Underground Mining products and the network requirements to support them, how to troubleshoot customer networks if/when problems arise.
Interaction with team:
Daily interaction with other Site Comms (wireless network) engineers, as well as other Cat engineers.
Occasional travel to customer sites, so communication/interpersonal skills are very important.
Work environment:
Daily would be at Mossville test tracks, but some travel to underground mine sites. CAT will provide all PPE besides steel-toed boots which are partially reimbursable to CAT.
Candidate Requirements
Education & Experience Required:
Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science, Management Information Systems, Electrical Engineering Degree preferred.
8+ yrs network support, we focus on outdoor wireless but that can be learned
Technical Skills
(Required)
Network support/troubleshooting
Cisco route/switch
Wireshark and network traffic analysis
(Desired)
Outdoor wireless (wifi)
Soft Skills
(Required)
Communication both oral and written (will be interacting with Cat customers) so this is critical
Disqualifiers/Red Flags:
This job tends to be attractive to cellular drive test engineers and this is not what they’re looking for.
This is Enterprise networking/Wi-Fi experience.
