If you like solving complex challenges and seeing your work deployed around the world with real impact, Northwood is the place to do it.

As you build deep knowledge of our systems, you'll be positioned to drive scalable, automated monitoring and response systems.

This position is based at our Los Angeles headquarters with frequent opportunities to travel to sites.

Deploy, maintain, and troubleshoot a growing network of antennas distributed across the globe.

Write your own analyses to dig into performance trends and uptime data.
