About us

You'll work in a global team with colleagues in APAC, EMEA, and the Americas, handle scheduled after-hours maintenance windows, and take part in the on-call rotation from time to time.

The role is located in Europe.

Tasks

  • Own customer support tickets from first response to closure, through Jira Service Management, email, phone, and chat.
  • Troubleshoot L1/L2 issues across Linux, IMS, SIP, Diameter, Kubernetes, and networking, using logs, traces, packet captures, and monitoring data.
  • Keep customers updated clearly and regularly, with written updates their technical teams can act on.
  • Escalate to senior engineers, Engineering, or Cloud with enough evidence (traces, logs, timeline, impact, steps already taken) that they can act without asking again.
  • Join major incidents: run investigation tasks, gather data, and report findings to the incident lead.
  • Plan and run software upgrades and maintenance windows for customer deployments, including pre-checks, execution, validation, and rollback readiness.
  • Monitor selected customer environments, respond to alerts, and flag risks before they become incidents.
  • Provide input for RCAs and write up findings from resolved issues.
  • Improve runbooks, SOPs, knowledge base articles, and monitoring and alerting.
  • Hand over reliably across regions: open tickets, ongoing incidents, maintenance, and customer commitments.
  • Keep ticket quality, SLA compliance, and follow-up high across the queue.

Requirements

  • Hands-on Linux administration and troubleshooting experience.
  • Solid networking knowledge: routing, switching, firewalls, NAT, DNS, and load balancing.
  • Working knowledge of SIP and Diameter, including reading call flows and signaling traces.
  • Experience with IMS or VoIP/telecom core environments.
  • Packet-level troubleshooting with Wireshark and tcpdump.
  • Experience supporting technical customers (operator or enterprise engineering teams) in a ticket-driven, SLA-based environment.
  • Clear written and spoken communication, and the ability to stay calm and structured under pressure.
  • Willingness to work scheduled after-hours maintenance windows and take part in the on-call rotation from time to time.
  • Fluent English.

Nice to have:

  • Kubernetes operations, ideally on AWS (EKS) or another public cloud.
  • Helm and container networking (Multus, Longhorn, or similar).
  • Prometheus, Grafana, Alertmanager, Loki, or similar observability tools.
  • Hands-on experience with IMS components (P-CSCF, S-CSCF, I-CSCF, DRA, HSS, PCRF/PCF, MMTEL).
  • Experience with VoLTE, VoWiFi, EPC, or 5G.
  • Experience running upgrades or maintenance on production telecom systems.
  • Jira Service Management and Confluence.

Benefits

  • Work on live IMS and cloud-native telecom networks across multiple continents.
  • Build real depth in voice core, Kubernetes, and cloud operations in the same job.
  • Learn from senior engineers through real investigations, with a clear path to senior and lead roles.
  • Flexible, hybrid remote culture: we care about ownership and results, not where you sit.
  • We value experience and knowledge over formal degrees.
  • A diverse team in a traditionally not very diverse industry.
  • Mobility, fitness, language class, and wellness benefits, plus a home-office budget (for full-time employees).
