Job Description:

Overview:Half the world still doesn't have stable Internet - want to play a critical role in changing that? Beamlink helps carriers, ISPs, and local governments expand cell service with a new network architecture of lunchbox-sized cell towers. These cell sites, called Bentocells, address the historic bottleneck preventing carriers from expanding beyond cities. Our dynamic and trailblazing engineering team designs these in-house and the firmware, software, and network architectures that make them shine.
