Department: Solutions Engineering / Field Operations

About the Role

We are searching for an elite, hands-on Senior Solutions & Deployment Engineer to serve as both a trusted pre-sales advisor and the operational backbone for Opanga Networks’ cutting-edge RAIN® product line.

This is a deeply technical, systems-level role that bridges the gap between technical capabilities and business needs. You will be physically and remotely interacting with mission-critical Telco infrastructure daily. From white-boarding solutions and delivering engaging product demos to functioning as the primary boots-on-the-ground expert for installation, tuning, and stabilization, you will own the technical customer lifecycle. Success in this role requires a unique blend of business acumen, mastery of Linux systems, IP networking stack manipulation, and rapid troubleshooting in live, carrier-grade production settings.

Core Responsibilities (Action-Oriented & Operational)

This role requires relentless execution, direct hands-on involvement, and exceptional customer-facing skills:

Pre-Sales Architecture & Relationship Building

• Customer Discovery & Design: Deeply understand the customer’s business challenges and design tailored solutions using Opanga’s product suite.

• Technical Presentations: Conduct highly engaging product demonstrations and technical presentations for both engineering teams and executive audiences.

• Sales & Partner Enablement: Support the core sales team with technical insights to close deals, and enable Channel Partners to grow business opportunities via different channels.

• Relationship Management: Build and maintain strong, trusted-advisor relationships with key customer stakeholders throughout the pre-sales and operational phases.

System Deployment & PoC Execution

• PoC Management: Lead the technical execution of trials and Proofs of Concept (PoCs), involving hands-on configuration changes, real-time performance validation, and demonstrating clear ROI to the customer.

• System Deployment & Commissioning: Execute and own the end-to-end installation, hardening, and configuration of the Opanga RAIN platform on bare-metal and virtualized customer systems using standard deployment tools.

• Network Integration & Taps: Configure and validate network interfaces, routes, firewalls, and monitoring taps to ensure seamless integration into customer IP and mobile core networks (e.g., Gi/Sg/S1-U).

Deep-Dive Troubleshooting & Optimization

• Advanced Troubleshooting: Serve as the final technical escalation point. Directly diagnose and resolve complex network, application, and system issues using packet analysis (Wireshark/tcpdump), log analysis, and system tools (strace, lsof).

• Performance Tuning: Proactively monitor, benchmark, and fine-tune Linux OS and application parameters (kernel settings, resource allocation, storage I/O) to ensure RAIN® meets stringent carrier-grade SLAs.

• Risk Management: Proactively identify, troubleshoot, and mitigate potential technical risks that may arise during live trials or production deployments.

Automation & Cross-Functional Alignment

• Automation & Scripting: Develop, test, and deploy scripts (Bash, Python) to automate repetitive operational tasks and improve deployment efficiency.

• Feedback to R&D: Translate hands-on operational challenges and customer requirements directly into actionable technical feedback for internal R&D and Product teams.

• Documentation: Maintain rigorous operational runbooks, detailed configuration records, and system-level diagrams.

Qualifications (The Technical Toolkit)

• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent extensive hands-on practical experience).

• Experience: 10–15 years of demonstrable, operational experience in field engineering, pre-sales/solutions engineering, or systems administration within a Tier 1 Telco or Carrier environment.

• Linux Mastery: Expert-level, command-line mastery of Linux system administration (e.g., RHEL/CentOS, Ubuntu), including native troubleshooting tools, storage management, and security hardening.

• IP Networking: Rock-solid practical understanding and troubleshooting capability with network protocols (e.g., BGP, OSPF, TCP/IP, MPLS, VPNs) and network architecture design.

• Communication Skills: Exceptional presentation skills with the ability to explain complex technical concepts to non-technical audiences and confidently manage customer relationships.

• Autonomous Operation: Proven ability to independently manage self-directed prioritization, resolve high-priority outages, and close complex PoCs.

Preferred Skills (Advanced Capabilities)

• Direct experience with 4G/LTE/5G Mobile Core networks and associated protocols/interfaces (SGi, Gi, S1-U, Diameter).

• Demonstrated capability in scripting and configuration management technologies (e.g., Python, Ansible, Bash).

• Experience with virtualization (KVM, VMware) and containerization technologies (Docker, Kubernetes).

• Familiarity with performance monitoring and visualization tools (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, ELK stack).
