United StatesOn-site
Responsibilities
- Capacity Management: Design wavelength allocation maps and manage the growth of C-band and L-band spectrum to meet increasing data demands.
- Architecture Design: Develop resilient network topologies, including ring protection (SNCP), mesh restoration, and ROADM (Reconfigurable Optical Add-Drop Multiplexer) configurations.
Requirements
- We are seeking a highly skilled Certified DWDM Engineer to join our optical transport team.
- As a "Certified" specialist, you are expected to bring verified expertise in industry-leading platforms (such as Ciena, Nokia, or Cisco) to ensure our fiber-optic backbone operates with maximum spectral efficiency and 99.999% reliability. Key Responsibilities
- Advanced Diagnostics: Utilize OTDR (Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer), OSA (Optical Spectrum Analyzer), and BERT (Bit Error Rate Test) equipment to localize fiber faults and signal degradation.
- Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Telecommunications, or a related technical field.
- Deep understanding of ITU-T G.709 (OTN) standards, WDM physics, and fiber types (G.652, G.655).
- Proficiency with Network Management Systems (NMS) and SDN controllers for optical automation. •
- Experience using optical modeling software (e.g., Ciena OnePlanner, Nokia 1830 EPT, or VPIphotonics).
- Professional Certifications (Preferred)
- Nokia: Certified Optical Network Professional (ONP).
- Cisco: CCNP Optical or specialized Cisco Transport certificates.
- You understand that a single fiber break can impact terabits of data, and you possess the meticulous attention to detail required to manage the invisible infrastructure that powers the modern internet.
- experience in 400ZR/ZR+ pluggable optics and SDN-based optical grooming.
Benefits
- Optical Path Engineering: Conduct link budget analysis, OSNR (Optical Signal-to-Noise Ratio) calculations, and chromatic dispersion compensation planning.
- experience and $7B+ in client engagements. We help fast-growing companies scale through smart talent strategies, automation, and technology-driven solutions.
