01Key Responsibilities
Support OSS and SMO modules for provisioning, configuration, and lifecycle management of RAN nodes.Develop and execute RAN auto-commissioning workflows using Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP).Integrate RAN nodes (eNodeB/gNodeB) into OSS using Netconf/YANG, REST APIs, or vendor-specific protocols.Onboard and support RIC (Near-RT and Non-RT) for intelligent RAN optimization and control.Deploy and manage xApps/rApps on RIC for use cases such as tra ic steering and anomaly detection.Automate routine network operations via scripting (Python, Shell) and orchestration tools (Ansible, others).Work closely with vendors and internal teams to support OSS/RIC integration and performance optimization.
Key Skills:
Knowledge of OSS/BSS systems and 4G/5G RAN architectureFamiliarity with SMO and O-RAN components including RIC architecture (Near-RT and Non-RT)Interfaces & protocols: Netconf, YANG, REST APIs, A1, E2, O1Tools: OSS-RC, NetAct, ENM, or equivalent SMO solutionsScripting: Python, Shell, and working with XML/JSON data structuresUnderstanding of containerized environments (Docker/Kubernetes) is a plus
Educational Qualification:
B.E./B.Tech in Electronics & Communication, Computer Science, or a relevant technical discipline.
Nice to Have:
Exposure to open-source RIC platforms (e.g., O-RAN SC, Open RIC, ONAP)Hands-on experience with xApp/rApp development or deploymentCertifications in Telecom Networks, OSS, RAN, or Network Automation .
