Roles in Telecommunications
3 roles
Backend Engineer
You build the invisible engines that power the world. You handle the logic, the database, the security, and the speed. While frontend is about what users see, backend is about making sure it actually works—reliably, securely, and fast.
View Role
DevOps Engineer
You bridge the gap between code and deployment. You don't just write software; you build the automated factory that tests, packages, and ships it to the cloud. You ensure the site never goes down, even when millions of users hit it at once.
View Role
Data Analyst
You turn raw, messy data into clear insights. Companies are drowning in data but starving for wisdom—you bridge that gap. You'll use SQL to find the data, Python/R to analyze it, and Tableau/PowerBI to visualize it for stakeholders who need to know 'what do we do next?'
