A permanent, full-time ISP / WISP Installation Technician role in Meyerton is open for a hands-on field technician who enjoys working outdoors, solving connectivity problems and leaving customers with a neat, working connection.

About the company and the work
The employer is Quyn International. The work covers wireless internet installations, network configuration, fibre and structured cabling, maintenance and fault-finding, and customer service and documentation.

Duties include installing and configuring wireless CPE devices and outdoor antennas, installing and aligning point-to-point and point-to-multipoint wireless links, performing line-of-sight assessments and site surveys, testing signal strength, signal-to-noise ratio, CCQ and link performance, and ensuring proper cable routing, waterproofing, grounding and surge protection. The role also covers configuring customer routers and wireless access points, setting up PPPoE, DHCP, static IP addresses and NAT, troubleshooting LAN, WAN and DNS issues, installing and terminating CAT5e and CAT6 cables, installing ONTs and routers for fibre connections, responding to connectivity faults, replacing faulty equipment, completing installation checklists and job cards, and updating ticketing and job management systems.
Requirements
- Grade 12 / Matric.
- Minimum one to three years of experience in ISP, WISP, telecommunications or network installations is preferred, with practical wireless installation experience.
- Working knowledge of TCP/IP, DHCP, DNS, NAT, PPPoE, LAN and WAN networking, wireless networking, MikroTik RouterOS and Ubiquiti airMAX / UISP equipment, Ethernet cabling and PoE, and basic network security.
- A valid South African driver’s licence.
- Willingness and ability to work at heights, on roofs, ladders and elevated structures, to travel between customer sites, and to be available for occasional after-hours and weekend callouts.
- Strong problem-solving, communication, time management and attention-to-detail skills, with a commitment to occupational health and safety procedures.
Relevant IT, telecommunications or networking qualifications, CompTIA Network+, Cisco CCNA, MikroTik MTCNA and Ubiquiti training or certification are advantageous, as is working-at-heights training. The salary is stated as market-related, based on qualifications, technical skills and experience.
