Scope of Position:
Corning is a market leader in Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) for indoor wireless coverage and capacity enhancement. With the explosive growth in wireless bandwidth demand (up to 100% CAGR) and shift to indoor usage ( 80%), there is a strong need for solutions that deliver flexible and scalable wireless services to the enterprise and carrier marketplace. DAS continues to be the dominant method of delivering coverage and capacity inside of buildings but small cells, which can include all types of distributed radio sources, are emerging as important tools in the delivery of network capacity. We believe that the lines are blurring between all of these technologies and they will each be an important part of future networks. We are seeking a digital DAS, C-RAN, small cell industry veteran, with both business development and network technology credentials, to help develop and execute our technology strategy. The role reports to the VP, Commercial Technology.

Don't Be Fooled

The fraudster will send a check to the victim who has accepted a job. The check can be for multiple reasons such as signing bonus, supplies, etc. The victim will be instructed to deposit the check and use the money for any of these reasons and then instructed to send the remaining funds to the fraudster. The check will bounce and the victim is left responsible.
