DESCRIPTION
The Technical Services Engineer is responsible for the implementation and
provisioning of all equipment and facilities required for CALEA / Electronic
Surveillance. This may require the use of probes in the network to capture ISP

certain that there are no technical issues after inception and take down the
intercepts after the current order has expired. There will be constant
communication between the Technical Services Engineer and the Law Enforcement
agency both before an intercept is activated and during the “active”
period. In many instances the law enforcement collection facilities are not
capable of receiving the transmitted data and therefore development work will
have to be done with the manufacturer to bring the equipment into compliance.
