Job Description

DISH is a Fortune 200 company with more than $15 billion in annual revenue that continues to redefine the communications industry. Our legacy is innovation and a willingness to challenge the status quo, including reinventing ourselves. We disrupted the pay-TV industry in the mid-90s with the launch of the DISH satellite TV service, taking on some of the largest U.S. corporations in the process, and grew to be the fourth-largest pay-TV provider. We are doing it again with the first live, internet-delivered TV service – Sling TV – that bucks traditional pay-TV norms and gives consumers a truly new way to access and watch television.

Now we have our sights set on upending the wireless industry and unseating the entrenched incumbent carriers.

We are driven by curiosity, pride, adventure, and a desire to win – it’s in our DNA. We’re looking for people with boundless energy, intelligence, and an overwhelming need to achieve to join our team as we embark on the next chapter of our story.

Opportunity is here. We are DISH.

 

DISH Business has experienced significant growth in the commercial market over the past few years and expects to continue growing, particularly with networking-related technologies in the form of Dish Fiber and OnStream.  While exciting as we push new networking technologies, this adds complexity and challenges to our business.  As a Business Operations Analyst, you'll be a key member of the DISH Business Technical Support Team focused on supporting a variety of new and legacy video and networking-related technologies.  You do not need to be a video or networking expert to join this growing team.  Rather, we’re looking for someone who is familiar with basic networking and technical concepts and has the drive to learn more.  If you like figuring out how products work in a fast paced environment, and then leveraging that knowledge to provide support to our DISH partners, then this role is for you!
