This is a highly technical, delivery-focused role requiring a unique blend of deep, hands-on engineering knowledge and exceptional stakeholder management skills.

✔️Act as a hands-on technical lead when required during critical situations, leveraging deep routing, switching, and wireless protocols to resolve high-priority architecture bottlenecks.

✔️Drive release readiness and interoperability testing, translating complex customer requirements into clear, scannable technical designs and execution frameworks.
