Join Com4 as Mobile Packet Core Engineer

Com4 is a leading global service provider in the Internet of Things (IoT), also known as “Machine to Machine” (M2M).

We offer mobile data subscriptions tailored to our customers' applications in their connected devices and equipment.

This connectivity enables innovative solutions across many sectors, such as energy, security, transport, and welfare technologies.

Com4 is a significant player in the Norwegian telecom market, with a 50% market share in the IoT segment.

Through roaming agreements, we offer IoT communication on 2G/3G/4G/5G across 700 networks globally.

As a Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO), Com4 has its own mobile core network and a portfolio of Business Support Systems (BSS) and Operational Support Systems (OSS).

A central element of our core network is our IP/MPLS network, which connects network elements across our various data centers and forms the interface toward our customers and partners/providers of peering, IP Transit, and IPX/GRX.

We have solutions for several VPN variants adapted for business customers with dedicated APNs and diverse communication needs.

We make extensive use of MPLS in both IP and mobile network elements for efficient service production.

Moving forward, the network is being further developed to support 5G SA mobile services, scale, and increase the degree of automation.
