Full description

  • Job Offer: Technical Support Specialist – IT, Networks and Optical Technologies (M/F)
  • Place of work: Jihlava, Červený Kříž 250

Are you interested in the world of IT, computer networks or optical technologies? Do you have a technical mindset, can you communicate in English, and are you looking for a job where you can continue to develop your professional skills?

We are looking for a new colleague to join OPTOKON’s technical department, who will help us with day-to-day technical operations, communication with customers and partners, and the preparation of the necessary documentation.

You don’t need to be a fully-fledged specialist in optical networks. What matters to us is a technical background, an interest in the field and a willingness to learn new things.

What you can expect

  • Supporting the day-to-day operations of the technical department
  • Collaborating on the fulfilment of production, service and project plans
  • Receiving, processing and responding to technical enquiries
  • Communicating with colleagues, customers and international partners
  • Researching technical information and proposing next steps
  • Preparing, compiling and managing technical and accompanying documentation
  • Working with product data sheets, manuals, specifications and other technical documents
  • Collaborating with production, the sales department, the service department and other specialist teams
  • Gradually familiarising yourself with products in the fields of data networks, fibre optics and telecommunications technologies

Who we’re looking for

  • You have a secondary school or university qualification, ideally in a technical field
  • You have a technical mindset and are able to identify connections
  • You are familiar with the basic principles of IT and computer networks
  • You are interested in networking, telecommunications or optical technologies
  • You can communicate in English both verbally and in writing
  • You are not afraid to make phone calls, attend face-to-face meetings or reply to emails in English
  • You are proficient in using standard office software and electronic documentation
  • You can organise your work, keep track of deadlines and see tasks through to completion
  • You are meticulous, independent and, at the same time, able to work well as part of a team

An advantage will be

  • Education or work experience in the field of IT, electrical engineering, telecommunications or optoelectronics
  • A basic understanding of the principles of LANs, WANs, TCP/IP, active network components or optical networks
  • Experience with technical support, customer enquiries or the preparation of documentation
  • The ability to interpret technical drawings, diagrams and product specifications
  • Knowledge of a second foreign language

The experience listed is an advantage, not a requirement. If you have a good technical foundation and a desire to break into the industry, we will help you acquire the necessary knowledge.

What we can offer you

  • A role in a stable Czech technology company with an international presence
  • Professional training and support from experienced colleagues
  • The opportunity to gain practical knowledge in the fields of IT, data networks and optical technologies
  • Varied work combining technical skills, communication and organisation
  • Contact with international customers and partners
  • Opportunities for career progression and further professional development
  • Competitive remuneration and the company’s employee benefits
