• Ensure compliance with FCC, CBRS SAS (Spectrum Access System), and local regulatory requirements
• Evaluate and recommend wireless hardware, software, and infrastructure vendors
• Document network topology, configurations, and standard operating procedures
• Provide support and training to field personnel and IT teams
Required Qualifications:
