Opious Overview
Opious is a carrier-agnostic managed connectivity and networking company, delivering Managed Network Services, Cellular Coverage Services, and Rapid Deployment Services to multi-site businesses globally. We're looking for two Technical Support Engineers to install, commission, and then support that infrastructure in the field.
This is a hands-on role covering the full life of a deployment: attending site to install and terminate cabling, mount and weatherproof external infrastructure, configure network and cellular hardware, and prove the solution works before handover — then owning faults on that same site once it's live. Our estate is cellular-heavy and often outdoors on live operational or construction sites, so the work is as much about doing things properly in difficult conditions as it is about technical knowledge. You'll work remotely between site visits, with travel booked in around your installs and support jobs — it suits someone self-sufficient enough to work unsupervised on a client site and leave it clean, documented, and working.
The role includes participation in the on-call rota, with occasional out-of-hours and weekend work for maintenance windows and reactive callouts.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Key Responsibilities
- Install, route, terminate, and test structured cabling — copper and fibre — to a tidy, consistent standard
- Build and install rack and cabinet equipment, including switches, gateways, and UPS units
- Install external infrastructure to a weatherproof standard, including sealed IP-rated enclosures
- Install and align antennas and satellite equipment, including Starlink on non-penetrating roof mounts
- Install and commission cellular routers and antennas, including SIM/eSIM fitting and signal verification
- Install wireless access points and IP CCTV cameras, validating coverage and performance on site
- Configure devices to Opious build standards and adopt them into cloud management platforms
- Prove service before handover through throughput, latency, and failover testing
- Produce as-built records — labelling, photographs, cable schedules, asset capture
- Take ownership of support tickets, diagnosing remotely first and attending site where necessary
- Diagnose WAN, cellular, and LAN-side faults, and manage hardware replacement and RMAs
- Participate in the on-call rota for out-of-hours escalations
