Verizon is one of the world's largest communication technology companies, providing wireless services, fiber-optic internet, TV, phone, and business solutions to millions of customers in the United States and beyond.
Verizon is the second-largest telecommunications company in the world by revenue and the largest wireless carrier in the United States, serving millions of customers across the country and beyond. Formed on June 30, 2000 through the merger of Bell Atlantic Corp. and GTE Corp., the company operates at a scale that few technology firms can match, and the infrastructure it builds carries national consequence.
The engineering agenda spans 5G wireless network technology, fiber-optic broadband, cloud services, cybersecurity, IoT applications, and fleet management technology. Its 5G network has been ranked the most reliable in America by RootMetrics for speed, reliability, and coverage; Fios extends fiber-optic internet, TV, and phone services to consumer households. For businesses of all sizes, government agencies, and public sector organizations, Verizon delivers integrated solutions in cloud, security, IoT, and connected fleets.
Engineers work on problems of unusual magnitude: networks carrying the traffic of a country, and systems on which millions of daily connections depend. Technical ambition is matched by an institutional commitment to digital inclusion through Verizon Innovative Learning, environmental sustainability initiatives, and community development programmes. The company's stated mission is to connect people to what brings them joy - a purpose realised through infrastructure rather than sentiment.
Headquartered in the United States with a global footprint, Verizon offers technologists the rare combination of scale, stability, and frontier problems in wireless and fiber-optic networking.
