About Us n

n
Our Technology team designs, delivers and maintains the communications infrastructure behind those services across Australia, New Zealand and globally, spanning satellite, mobile and IP networks.
n
We're continuing to evolve our voice and messaging platforms and are looking for an experienced Senior Voice Engineer / Architect to join our Technology team on an initial 6‐month contract, with the possibility to extend.
About the Role n
This is a senior, hands‐on technical role for someone with deep experience across carrier voice architecture, SIP and Ribbon Session Border Controllers (SBCs).
n
You'll take technical ownership across the architecture, design, implementation and ongoing evolution of Pivotel's voice and messaging infrastructure, including carrier‐grade SIP platforms, SBCs and 4G/5G IMS‐based communication services.

We're looking for someone who can come into the environment and contribute quickly – taking ownership of network designs, routing engines, platform migrations and complex technical escalations while helping shape the longer‐term architecture and roadmap.
n
This role combines architecture with genuine hands‐on engineering. You won't simply be designing solutions from a distance – you'll be involved in configuring and optimising platforms, troubleshooting complex issues,



leading migrations and improving the resilience and scalability of our voice environment.

Work with technologies including Redis, SQL, DNS and REST APIs
n
Ensure voice architecture aligns with telecommunications regulatory and security requirements
n
Work closely with carriers, interconnect partners, vendors and internal technical teams
n
Develop clear architectural documentation, standards and technical designs
n
Provide technical guidance and mentorship across the broader Technology team
n
What You'll Bring to This Role n
This is a specialist senior position, so we're looking for someone with significant hands‐on carrier voice experience who can operate with a high degree of technical independence.
n
Ideally, you'll bring:
n
n
Extensive hands‐on experience designing, configuring, deploying and troubleshooting Ribbon Session Border Controllers
n

n
Deep knowledge of SIP, RTP/RTCP, SIP trunking,

n
Proven experience designing resilient, highly available telecommunications architectures

Experience with SMSCs, SMPP and messaging routing environments

Experience planning and delivering complex platform migrations
