Lead Technical Staff

Role Overview

• Lead the functional specification, design, development and maintenance of scalable cloud and network infrastructure orchestration services for 5G production network.
• Lead the development of Telco Cloud portal based on Software Defined Network (SDN) application and vendor agnostic Yang model in the AT&T to enable zero touch network provisioning and life cycle management in AT&T orchestration environment for generating the network configuration of different devices like terminal server, network and compute rack switch & routers and for multiple vendors such as Cisco, Juniper, Arista.
• Automate the complex network changes with zero down time by generating differential router configuration at any specified time based on the configurations present on the router and the configuration generated based on the data present in the data models.
• Interface and implement process flow to query SQL and NoSQL databases to retrieve the configuration parameters for building the network configuration for router & switches.
• Lead the architecture design, implementation and testing of the automation and management of virtual machines and virtual network functions in AT&T orchestration environment for KVM and ESXI hypervisor builds.
• Understand the requirements from various AT&T stakeholders and translate it to functional and technical specifications and establish end-to-end process flow.
• Design CI/CD pipeline to manage the deployment of applications in Integration testing and production environment using Jenkins.
• Prepare the project estimate and schedule and ensure that the project implementation is as per the technical specification and ensure code quality through code reviews.
• Conduct lab testing to validate the deployment scenario and ensure Unit, Integration and System testing of features.
• Work with NETCONF, RESTCONF protocols and RPC communication to apply router configuration on the devices using zero touch automation.
• Work with JSON, XML schema and XSLT for managing and creating vendor specific templates which will use the vendor agnostic AT&T yang models to generate the network configurations.
