They help cable, ‘service provider’, and video operator customers to deliver a seamless, secure content experience for consumers.

Systems Debugging, Network Tracing, Log File Analysis, Telco/Network Architecture.
IP Networking and Concepts
UNIX (ideally both Solaris and LINUX) and Windows Systems

Strong communication skills and a very dark sense of humour is a must
‘Get the job done without having to ask’ attitude is also essential.
Fluency in Mandarin, Cantonese, Japanese, Thai etc would be nice to have but not essential (We know we are pushing it here, but if you speak Japanese)
The role will be based from Singapore and will pay up to $80,000 plus benefits. People based outside of SG are most welcome to apply, but don’t expect relocation assistance or any circa-1995 expat perks.
