The role requires you to deploy and retrieve loggers (small metal listening devices) within a DMA (district metered area) for water companies. The day to day duties include deploying loggers on the clients' furniture, most likely on fire hydrants and valves, and normally 80-100 loggers deployed per day. The loggers will need to be retrieved 24 hours later and downloaded to see what results have been captured and the process repeated (the loggers capture constant leakage noise between optical times of 2 am and the noise is given in Decibels).
