Role & responsibilities

Responsible for IP-MPLS service planning, NMS operations, network provisioning, node integration, service migration, site shifting, and capacity expansion activities across multi-vendor IP/MPLS networks. The role involves coordination with NOC/SNOC, field, transmission, implementation, and OEM teams to ensure smooth and error-free network changes.

1. New Node Insertion & Integration

- Plan and execute new IP/MPLS node insertion as per approved network design and project requirements.
- Perform new node upload/on boarding on NMS/EMS platforms.
- Validate node reachability, management connectivity, topology, and synchronization.
- Verify routing, interfaces, VLAN/VRF, loopback, and management parameters.
- Coordinate with field and transmission teams for end-to-end connectivity validation.
- Perform pre-check and post-check activities after node integration.

2. IP-MPLS Service Provisioning & Migration

- Plan and execute IP-MPLS service migration between existing and new nodes.
- Support L2VPN/L3VPN, Internet, enterprise, and other IP/MPLS service migrations.
- Prepare migration plans, implementation steps, rollback procedures, and service-impact assessments.
- Validate services before and after migration.
- Monitor network and services during migration windows and ensure successful restoration.

3. Site Shifting

- Plan and coordinate IP/MPLS site shifting activities.
- Prepare existing vs. new-site configuration and connectivity requirements.
- Coordinate node migration, IP addressing, routing, NMS on boarding, and service restoration.
- Perform post-shift validation of all connected services and network paths.

4. Card Addition & Capacity Expansion

- Plan and execute card addition and hardware capacity expansion activities.
- Validate required slots, cards, interfaces, optics, and configuration requirements.
- Coordinate with field/OEM teams for hardware installation and commissioning.
- Perform configuration, service mapping,



and post-implementation testing.
- Update network inventory and NMS records after capacity expansion.

5. NMS Operations

- Perform node on boarding, node upload, deletion, modification, and inventory updates in NMS/EMS.
- Monitor node status, alarms, connectivity, performance, and service availability.
- Ensure accurate synchronization between network elements and NMS.
- Troubleshoot NMS-related communication, discovery, topology, and alarm issues.
- Maintain updated network topology, node inventory, service inventory, and configuration records.

6. Multi-Vendor Network Support

Hands-on knowledge/coordination experience with multi-vendor IP/MPLS equipment, including:

- Cisco
- Nokia
- Huawei
- Ciena
- ADVA
- ZTE
- Ericsson
- Tejas Networks

Responsibilities include vendor-specific node provisioning, NMS on boarding, configuration validation, service migration, troubleshooting, and implementation support.

Planning & Documentation

- Prepare MOP/SOP, implementation plans, HLD/LLD inputs, and rollback plans.
- Prepare node insertion, service migration, site shifting, and card addition plans.
- Maintain IP plans, topology diagrams, port/interface mapping, and service details.
- Update network inventory and as-built documentation after implementation.
- Prepare daily/weekly activity and implementation status reports.

Coordination & Operations

- Coordinate with NOC/SNOC, transmission, field engineers, planning, implementation, and OEM teams.
- Participate in change-management activities and planned maintenance windows.




- Raise and track change requests/tickets through HPSM/Service Now or equivalent platforms.
- Ensure activities are completed within agreed timelines and operational procedures.
- Provide technical support during critical implementation and migration activities.

Technical Skills

- Strong understanding of IP, MPLS, IP-MPLS, L2VPN, L3VPN, VRF and QoS.
- Knowledge of BGP, OSPF, IS-IS and static routing.
- Understanding of VLAN, Ethernet, trunk/access interfaces, loopback and management connectivity.
- Knowledge of network topology, IP addressing and service provisioning.
- NMS/EMS monitoring, node on boarding and alarm management.
- Good troubleshooting and change-management skills.
- Understanding of telecom transmission interfaces and optical connectivity is an advantage.
