OBJECTIVE
My five years of RF engineering experience should be of interest to a rapidly growing company like yours.
In various capacities in RF engineering with the telecom companies in Afghanistan and Utah, leading to my
present assignment as wireless engineer II, I have acquired skills in most phases of RF engineering including
Radio Frequency planning, Equipment evaluation for better performance both point to point and point to
multipoint, Firmware features test, antennas evaluation for selecting better antenna, decongesting the sites by
applying RF techniques, technical documentations on various technical parts, evaluation of different technology
(OFDM, FSK and LTE), routers test for better wireless performance, mapping the company foot print, upgrade
plans, installation, new site plan, KPI review and etc.
I am sure I can contribute to your growth and profit. I would appreciate the opportunity to show you how I can
help your company meet its goals.
