Company Description
ihavesignal is a UK specialist in wireless technology, delivering mobile signal boosting, Wi-Fi, private 5G, microwave and other specialist wireless solutions for challenging environments. From a single building to large and complex sites, we survey, design, install and support wireless systems that solve connectivity problems where conventional solutions fall short.
About the Role
If you have recently finished your A-levels or 6th Form and want to start a practical, technical career rather than continuing in full-time classroom education, this role offers direct, hands-on experience in the field.
We are looking for a Trainee Network Engineer based in the Darlington area. Working alongside experienced engineers, you will learn how to install, configure, and maintain traditional network infrastructure and Radio Frequency (RF) / wireless technology.
