PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE:

Confidential, Linthicum Heights, MD

RF / Network Engineer

• Performed CW Testing with BVS equipment on DAS candidate poles and processed composite results in Mapinfo.
• Performed capacity analysis in Mapinfo using small cell CW drives, ATP of candidates to baseline them with Head-end DAS path and shakedown at node location to verify Cell ID and stationary Uplink/Downlink throughput.
• I was working in Confidential and had a customer asking repeatedly for handing over the spare parts. I checked the contractual BoQ and there were no spare parts. I informed the customer and he realized that he was asking unnecessary because he had not checked the contractual BoQ.
• One time project manager assigned the task to go the newly deployed tower site along with sub-con team to figure out the signal throughput issue as peer engineers were not able to figure out the problem. I checked the installation step by step and climb the tower along with rigger to check the antenna installation and noticed that antenna connector was loose and sub-standard weatherproofing tape was used. Peer engineers were not checking the antenna installation and riggers ignored the connector tightness. Ultimatelty signal throughput issure was resolved
• Configure, maintain, and troubleshoot network infrastructure at corporate headquarters, and branch offices including switches, routers, firewalls, VPN, and content filters.
• Upgrades network infrastructure by conferring with vendors; developing, testing, evaluating, and installing enhancements
