Wireless microwave transport systems for 5G, rural broadband, and private networks
Aviat Networks manufactures IP microwave transmission systems serving telecom operators, government, and utility networks across 170 countries. The company runs a classic hardware-centric stack (Oracle EBS, Salesforce, C/C++, Linux) with active hiring concentrated in engineering and finance—a ratio that reflects both manufacturing complexity and the operational overhead of managing supply-chain disruption. Current projects span product introduction (digital point-to-point microwave systems), configurator tooling, and e-commerce platform work, while pain points cluster around yield, lead times, component shortages, and revenue targets—typical friction points for hardware vendors in constrained markets.
