About Us
Wifinity was founded in 2007 to solve a problem—our armed forces were struggling with reliable connectivity. While living in barracks, often in remote locations, ordering a landline and booking in an engineer just wasn’t an option.
And that problem isn’t exclusive to the military, either. Students living in University accommodation, families visiting holiday resorts, or living in shared accommodation and retirement communities.
Conventional home broadband doesn’t always work for them.
Wifinity is different. We offer the same benefits as traditional broadband, such as super-fast speeds, WiFi, and secure and private networks, but none of the downsides. We even offer Pay As You Go and flexible contracts, so customers only pay for what they need without hefty penalties or long contract terms.
We take the complexity out of connectivity.
The Opportunity
As an L3 Network Engineer within our Network Operations Centre (NOC), you will act as the highest technical escalation point for complex network incidents, major outages, and problem management across our estate. You will play a critical role in maintaining the stability, resilience, and performance of our wired, wireless, and WAN infrastructure while supporting the delivery of strategic customer projects.
You will have the opportunity to work with a broad range of enterprise networking technologies while mentoring engineers and influencing the future direction of our network.
This role plays an integral part in ensuring operational excellence, improving customer experience, and supporting the continued growth of the business.
Key Areas of Focus
The team is responsible for providing the highest level of technical support across Network Operations and plays an important role in maintaining the stability, security, and continuous improvement of Wifinity's nationwide network infrastructure.
