Telecommunications Engineer
Telecommunications engineers are responsible for the continuous and rapid development of the science and methods of telecommunications; for the general and basic planning of future expansion; for the design and planning of automatic exchanges, carrier systems, telex systems, coaxial cable systems, microwave radio systems; fiber optic systems and videotext systems.
Telecommunications engineers participate in the planning, design, commissioning and supervision of complex telecommunications networks and associated transmission equipment. Many telecommunications design engineers work for major transportation companies, as well as for telecommunications and information technology service providers.
Telecommunications engineering can cover any of the following fields: long distance, microwave and coaxial cable carrier systems, foreign radio communications, electronic, automatic and manual exchange switching, overhead and underground line equipment networks, and telex, telegram and data transmission systems.
Telecommunications engineers use a variety of intricate telecommunications test equipment associated with their particular discipline and computers. They work mainly in offices with trips to the workplace, for example, telephone exchanges, carrier rooms, microwave radio rooms, etc.
