Starry is looking for tech-savvy, intellectually curious individuals who want to help us redefine the way that end users access the internet. If you feel that the cable internet industry is long overdue for a technology disruption and you own more IoT devices than you know what to do with, you’re probably one of us.As a Starry Expert in the field, you’ll be the face of Starry Internet to customers. On a regular appointment, you’ll set them up for success with their new Starry Station router, provide “white glove service” to connect all their devices, and explain in human terms how our wireless broadband internet service works.You’ll need to have strong time management, a knack for troubleshooting, and the ability to juggle multiple projects at once. In addition to being punctual, you are an engaging, approachable, and empathetic person. Our ideal candidate not only enjoys teaching someone how to use something new, but they’re energized by sharing their passion for groundbreaking technology. You should be versatile; able to interact with a range of personalities from building owners to tenants. This isn’t an office job, so we want someone who enjoys being on the move and interacting with people, not keyboards.What you'll do:
  • Be the point person for installation and activation of Starry Internet services for new customers
  • Connect a customer to the Starry Internet infrastructure using coax, phone lines, or ethernet
  • Investigate and resolve device and network specific issues at point of installation: Think everything from helping get a wireless printer connected to making sure there’s no interruptions when streaming or gaming
  • Act as a valued source of “on the ground” feedback from customers and be asked to report back and present your findings in order to improve our service and technology
  • Log customer feedback and concerns to ensure the accurate tracking of satisfaction metrics
  • Educate customers on how to operate the equipment after setup and installation to ensure their long-term success with the service
Experience and skills required:
  • 1–3+ years of proven IT and/or field experience
  • Experience wiring 66 and 110 punch blocks
  • Experience terminating coax, RJ11, and RJ45 cables
  • Ability to work independently and proactively
  • Must be able to lift up to 40 lbs regularly, respond quickly to avoid or mitigate potentially dangerous situations, move safely over uneven terrain, safely climb ladders while carrying up to 40 lbs, work in extreme weather, and wear personal protective gear correctly
  • Must be able to adhere to OSHA safety guidelines and wear personal protective gear correctly
  • Must be able to bustle about, bend, squat, or stand for prolonged periods of time
Extra credit:
  • Past experience at an ISP or telecommunications company and paired with a constant desire to tear all the systems you used apart and build something better
  • A+ Certification
  • Tool sheds feel more like toy stores and you know your way around wiring and cabling
  • You love new technology, Internet of Things, and have a veritable library of gizmos around your home
We work hard, so we take care of each other and try to enjoy ourselves along the way. We have:
  • Generous employer contribution for you and your dependents on low deductible health plan, dental plan, vision plan, AD&D, and life insurance and access to our 401(k) retirement plan
  • 12 weeks of 100% paid parental leave for all new parents after six months of continuous employment
