Connectivity Solutions Architect - Cellular / Multi-Carrier Bonding
Parallel · Los Angeles, CA · 2 days ago
On-siteEngineering$200k/yrFull-time
Key Responsibilities
- Arcitect and deliver multi-carrier network bonding solutions (link aggregation, WAN smoothing, hot failover) for field-deployed assets requiring sustained, high-quality connections.
- Own the full deployment lifecycle of field networking infrastructure: site survey, installation, commissioning, monitoring, and ongoing maintenance.
- Integrate and troubleshoot third-party cellular modems and routers, along with the VPN / WAN-smoothing / tunneling overlays that keep sessions alive across degraded links.
- Manage technical relationships with major US network operators (AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile — including FirstNet, Frontline, and T-Priority programs): device certification, SIM/eSIM provisioning, data-plan structuring, and escalation.
- Diagnose and resolve connectivity failures in challenging RF conditions (remote, mobile, high-density), where signal quality, latency, jitter, and packet loss are the primary adversaries.
- Support cell-connected edge terminals and mobile/fleet vehicles, ensuring connection quality meets application requirements.
Basic Requirements
- Demonstrated hands-on experience with cellular networking (4G/LTE and 5G) and with OEM multi-carrier bonding platforms (e.g., Peplink SpeedFusion, Dejero, LiveU, TVU Networks, Haivision).
- A verifiable track record of establishing reliable cellular connectivity in challenging, connectivity-hostile environments.
- Established working relationships and direct experience with the major US network operators.
- Career experience supporting cell-connected, field-deployed assets - edge terminals, mobile vehicles, or comparable remote units — with high connection-quality requirements.
- Hands-on experience with third-party modems and with VPN / WAN-smoothing technologies (forward error correction, packet duplication, adaptive routing, failover).
- Documented experience deploying and maintaining networking infrastructure in the field - not solely in a lab or data center.
Preferred Requirements
- Experience with live or low-latency video streaming over bonded cellular (adaptive bitrate encoding, H.264/HEVC, SRT/RTMP, contribution workflows).
