Senior LTE Engineer

Network Engineer 5-10 Years Exp
Job Location: Brisbane, Queensland

A major industrial operator is replacing a legacy OT Wi-Fi network with a site-wide LTE infrastructure. This isn’t a maintenance job. It’s a ground-up rollout where one engineer becomes the technical cornerstone of a new capability.

If you want ownership, influence, and the chance to shape how LTE is deployed in a live production environment, this is the platform.

The Project

The organisation is redesigning its network stack to support autonomous equipment and next-generation operational systems.

You will lead the LTE layer of the rollout:

Replace existing OT Wi-Fi with LTE infrastructure
Integrate LTE into active operational systems
Advise on architecture and deployment strategy
Establish the internal LTE capability the business will scale around

You are not joining an LTE team. You are helping create it.

The Role

A hybrid of:

LTE deployment specialist
Operations engineer
Embedded technical advisor

The early phase is rollout-heavy and project driven. Once stabilised, the role transitions into long-term operational ownership.

You will be relied on for judgement and experience. This is a high-impact individual contributor role where your decisions matter.

Environment

Brisbane-based role
3–4 days in office, 1–2 days WFH
Minimal site travel
Embedded full-time with the end client

The team culture is collaborative, direct, and hands-on. Engineers share responsibility, step in to help, and focus on delivery rather than politics.

Ideal Background

Strong signals include:
Real LTE network deployment experience
OT / industrial networking environments
Experience integrating wireless infrastructure into existing systems
Comfortable advising on rollout decisions
Able to act as a technical reference point
Independent and pragmatic problem solver

Industry background is flexible. Depth of LTE experience is the key requirement.

Why This Role Matters

Most LTE roles are incremental upgrades to existing systems. This is foundational work. You are creating capability, not inheriting it.

That level of ownership is rare and career-defining.

If you want a role where your technical decisions shape long-term infrastructure, reach out for a confidential discussion.
