What You Will Do
- Lead value-based solution positioning and proposal development to secure strategic OSS transformation programs and ensure deliverability
- Act as design authority for major transformation engagements, ensuring inventory solutions align with customer needs and Ericsson's architectural principles
- Own the technical architecture end-to-end: define, scope, and drive design solutions across the Inventory domain, with major focus on EAI. Design end-to-end inventory solutions for:
- Physical, logical, and virtual network resource inventory
- Service inventory aligned with catalog-driven architectures (service/resource modeling)
- Multi-domain topology and connectivity management (RAN, Core, Transport, Cloud)
- Integration with orchestration (ESOA), assurance, and mediation layers
- Lead data migration and data cleansing strategies as part of inventory transformation engagements, ensuring quality, completeness, and consistency of inventory data onboarded from legacy OSS systems
- Contribute to reusable assets (inventory models, integration blueprints, migration patterns) and support standardization and industrialization of delivery approaches to enable faster delivery through reuse and best practices
- Share knowledge, contribute to internal communities, and foster a culture of re-use and continuous learning
You Will Bring
Must-Haves:
- 10+ years in telecom/OSS domain
- HLD/LLD design & customer-facing experience
- Hands-on experience with network inventory platforms (EAI)
- Deep understanding of network and service resource modeling (physical, logical, virtual layers)
- Experience with data migration from legacy OSS/inventory systems, including data cleansing, reconciliation, and onboarding strategies
- Familiarity with TM Forum Open APIs for inventory (TMF639, TMF640, TMF642, TMF648)
- Good understanding of orchestration (SOM/COM concepts), Order Management, and Assurance integration touchpoints
- Knowledge of multi-technology network domains: RAN, Core, Transport, Cloud/NFV
Can Be Learned on the Job:
- Ericsson-specific tooling & internal processes
- Deep EAI product-specific configuration and administration
- AIOps and closed-loop automation integration specifics
