Technical Operations Officers provide high-quality, timely, and professional services and technical support in a wide range of areas: analog, digital, and satellite communications; video and image enhancement; coding and decoding devices; and various aspects of computer technology.
Using specialized equipment, you will train others in equipment use, satisfy field operations requirements, prepare reports, familiarize non-technical people with technical capabilities, and conduct hands-on work while traveling worldwide.
As a member of a multi-discipline team, you will utilize your creative problem-solving skills to find unconventional technical solutions to challenging on-going operational requirements in non-traditional environments.
