What You’ll Do

  • Install and configure high-availability systems at customer locations, ensuring alignment with technical and regulatory standards.
  • Support integration with network components such as deep packet inspection tools, probes, and mediation systems.
  • Conduct system health assessments, execute acceptance testing, and maintain detailed implementation records.
  • Troubleshoot technical issues in collaboration with senior engineers, escalating bugs and validating fixes.
  • Communicate clearly with customers and internal teams, providing updates and driving support cases to resolution within defined timelines.
  • Gain proficiency in core protocols including TCP/IP, SIP, GTP, HTTP, and Diameter, as well as lawful intercept frameworks like ETSI and CALEA.
  • Work closely with R&D and QA teams to ensure product stability and readiness for field deployment.
  • Adhere to strict security and confidentiality requirements, including compliance with customer-specific policies and information handling standards.
  • Utilize a ticketing system to manage case workflows, prioritize issues (P1–P3), and ensure SLA adherence.

What We’re Looking For

  • Foundational knowledge of IP networking concepts such as routing, firewalls, VLANs, and IP addressing.
  • Experience with Linux or Unix command-line environments.
  • Strong analytical skills and a detail-oriented approach to problem solving.
  • Effective communication abilities for technical and customer-facing interactions.
  • Willingness to travel as needed to support deployments.
  • Eligibility and readiness to obtain a Security Clearance.

Preferred Background

  • Experience with packet analysis tools like Wireshark.
  • Familiarity with virtualization (VMware, KVM) or container platforms (Docker, Kubernetes).
  • Scripting skills in Bash or Python for automation and log analysis.
  • Understanding of mobile core networks (3G/4G/5G) or ISP infrastructure.
  • Knowledge of ETSI or CALEA compliance requirements.
  • Experience using AI-powered tools to streamline workflows, generate technical content, or support troubleshooting.

Work Environment

This is a hybrid role based in Farnborough, Hampshire, requiring three days per week in the office with flexibility for remote work on other days. Occasional travel—up to 25%—may be required for customer site engagements. The environment emphasizes collaboration, technical growth, and adherence to security best practices.
