- Building and testing lab environments: Build and configure lab environments that replicate production scenarios, performing functional, performance, interoperability, and failover testing across Cisco and Juniper routers and switches, DHCP, DNS, Syslog, and BNG services.
- Optimising solution performance: Identify design gaps and recommend optimisation opportunities, validate resiliency, redundancy, and high-availability scenarios,



and ensure solutions consistently meet performance KPIs and SLAs.
- Maintaining documentation and governance: Prepare Golden MOPs, test plans, validation reports, configuration templates, and design acceptance documentation, while supporting customer sign-off and governance activities.
- Supporting pre-production rollout: Ensure solutions are production-ready with minimal deployment risk, and provide rollout support, troubleshooting guidance, and knowledge transfer to implementation teams.

- Networking fundamentals: A strong understanding of routing, switching, and security architectures, as well as DHCP, DNS, Syslog, and other network services, is key to succeeding in this role.
- Lab validation experience: Proven experience in network lab validation and troubleshooting will help ensure solutions are thoroughly tested before deployment.
- Analytical and collaborative mindset:



A robust analytical and problem-solving approach is valued, along with the ability to work independently, take ownership, and manage stakeholders with confidence.
- Communication skills: Excellent communication and documentation skills are important for producing clear design and validation records and supporting cross-team collaboration.
