At its core, our Networks organization plays a pivotal role in driving thought leadership and delivering exceptional value in a fast-changing, increasingly data-driven environment, where business realities vary across diverse markets and countries.

We are looking for a Network Build & NSI (Network Solution Introduction) Solution Architect for Customer Unit SEE (South Europe and Eurasia), with primary focus on delivery execution within the RAN Life Cycle Services (LCS) portfolio and additionally support in rollout integration activities.

The role serves as the technical authority for NSI activities, driving the integration, validation and introduction of new RAN solutions, software releases and functionalities into live customer networks while ensuring delivery excellence and operational stability.

The scope also extends to the practical implementation context surrounding solution introduction, including site and infrastructure readiness, special coverage and mission-critical deployment scenarios, and the interaction between radio, energy, transport and IP connectivity.

What you will do:

• Deliver Network Solution Introduction activities under the RAN Life Cycle Services portfolio, with primary accountability for delivery quality, technical readiness and repeatable execution.
• Drive RAN software onboarding through controlled and increasingly automated processes covering software supply, validation, deployment readiness and lifecycle continuity.
• Deliver, validate and deploy newly introduced technology and solutions for customers, tailored to their specific needs and environment.
• Coordinate validation in lab, first-node implementation, pilot or golden-cluster activities, hardware introduction and continuous software-upgrade readiness, ensuring a controlled handover to industrialized rollout.
• Prepare and maintain delivery methods, technical procedures, checklists, acceptance criteria, reusable templates and troubleshooting guidance to secure first-time-right execution
• Provide expert support for configuration, scripting, node troubleshooting, observability, investigation, CSR opening and technical recommendations for deployment teams.
• Support rollout integration activities
• Lead the technical development of RAN and network infrastructure solutions for customer opportunities and delivery projects
• Support implementation partners and ASPs through technical guidance, mentoring, training and operational best practices.
• Uphold high standards of Ethics, Compliance, Integrity, information security, quality and EHS in all delivery activities.
