[Hiring] Broadband Network Strategy & GIS Analyst @TEKsystems

Role Description

A leading broadband organization is seeking a Broadband Network Strategy & GIS Analyst to help determine where the company should expand its network next. This role sits at the intersection of:

• Broadband network strategy
• GIS/geospatial analysis
• Market expansion
• Competitive intelligence
• Data analytics

The individual will analyze existing network footprints, potential serviceable locations, competitive providers, demographics, broadband availability, market density, geospatial data, and financial considerations to identify and prioritize potential network expansion opportunities.

The goal is straightforward: Where should we expand the broadband network next, and why does the opportunity make sense?

This is not a traditional GIS Analyst position or a network engineering role. GIS is an important part of the position, but the successful candidate will use geospatial information as part of a much broader broadband expansion and investment strategy.

Qualifications

• 3+ years of experience within the broadband, cable, fiber, telecommunications, or Internet service provider industry
• Experience supporting broadband network strategy, network expansion, market planning, market expansion, network planning, or similar initiatives
• Understanding of how broadband providers evaluate new markets and network growth opportunities
• Experience working with GIS or geospatial data
• Experience using geographic information as part of network, market, or business analysis
• Understanding of broadband network infrastructure, including fiber and/or HFC environments
• Experience performing market, competitive, strategic, or network analysis
• Experience working with large datasets to support business decisions
• Ability to evaluate opportunities using geographic, network, competitive, demographic, customer, and financial information
• Ability to translate complex analysis into clear business recommendations
• Strong communication and presentation skills
• Python and/or SQL experience is preferred

• Identify, evaluate, and prioritize potential broadband expansion markets
• Analyze opportunities for fiber expansion, greenfield builds, network edge-outs, and competitive overbuilds
• Evaluate how potential expansion opportunities align with the existing network footprint

• Support broadband market planning and network investment decisions
• Build recommendations around where the organization should expand next
• Help determine which opportunities should move forward for deeper engineering and financial evaluation
• Support business cases for new broadband markets and network expansion initiatives
• Use GIS and geospatial data to understand existing network footprints and potential expansion areas
• Analyze the geographic relationship between existing infrastructure and potential customers or serviceable locations
• Map and evaluate broadband availability, competitive footprints, market density, and network proximity
• Combine geospatial information with customer, demographic, competitive, market, and network data
• Identify geographic areas that may represent attractive network expansion opportunities
• Develop maps and visualizations that help leadership understand potential broadband markets
• Work with network planning and engineering teams to help evaluate expansion feasibility
• Identify the broadband providers currently serving potential expansion markets
• Evaluate cable, fiber, telecommunications, fixed wireless, and other broadband competition
• Analyze broadband availability, technologies, speeds, coverage, and competitive footprints
• Identify underserved, underpenetrated, or strategically attractive markets
• Analyze incumbent provider presence and potential competitive risk
• Combine internal network information with external market intelligence
• Develop market profiles that clearly communicate the opportunity, competitive landscape, and potential challenges
• Analyze large broadband, network, customer, demographic, competitive, and geospatial datasets
• Use Python and/or SQL to manipulate data, perform analysis, automate processes, or support analytical modeling
• Combine multiple datasets to develop a complete picture of potential broadband opportunities
• Build repeatable analytical processes for identifying and evaluating new markets
• Create dashboards, maps, models, reports, and presentations that support strategic decisions
• Translate complex datasets into clear recommendations for business and technical leadership
• Support market feasibility and broadband network investment analysis
• Evaluate potential homes passed and serviceable locations
• Analyze potential subscriber and penetration opportunities
• Support cost-per-passing and market-level ROI analysis
• Compare investment opportunities across different geographic markets
• Help leadership understand the opportunity, competitive risk, network fit, and strategic value associated with potential expansions
