About the opportunity

If you are currently working under a subcontractor and NOT connected directly with a Prime Contractor, you are leaving money on the table. We have developed a program that allows skilled independent technicians that want to take Broadband to the Home Routes through 1099.careers and receive the rate card that is direct from the Prime. No more middleman.

We are looking for skilled technicians that want to own their own routes and get the support to run like a company.

· Run and terminate coax and/or Ethernet as required; install wall plates, connectors, splitters, grounding/bonding to spec

o Home networking: Ethernet, Wi-Fi standards, basic router configuration, IP/DHCP basics

· Ability to read work orders, follow install standards, and meet quality metrics
