Job description

Duration: 12+ Months

Overview

• We are looking for a seasoned telecom systems contractor to support the Network Facilities Optimization & Decommission (NFOD) program.
• This role is focused on applying deep operational knowledge of Telcordia-based inventory and provisioning systems to help scale automation, improve data quality, and accelerate systems development in support of client's facility decommission.
• You will work closely with internal engineering and analytics teams to translate network domain expertise into actionable workflows and automated solutions — and serve as a go-to resource for cross-functional teams navigating complex circuit and facility data.

Core Responsibilities

• Serve as subject matter expert on Telcordia systems (TIRKS, LFACS, Switch OS, SOAC) and their data models, workflows, and interdependencies
• Support automation development by translating complex network inventory and provisioning processes into structured business and system requirements
• Leverage IVAPP and Nautilus (IEN) knowledge to validate circuit data, identify gaps, and improve cross-system reconciliation
• Apply OSP/IOF expertise to support facility-level decommission analysis — copper, fiber, interoffice routes, and associated circuit inventory
• Utilize NAR data to support circuit utilization tracking, decom modeling, and facility exit planning
• Partner with analytics and development teams to design scalable workflows that reduce manual effort across inventory, billing, and decommission processes
• Support legacy transport migration planning and circuit hierarchy analysis across optical and TDM networks
• Build and maintain working relationships across cross-functional teams; clearly communicate complex network concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Review and validate data outputs from automated systems against known network configurations and operational norms
• Document system-to-system data flows, provisioning workflows, and decommission decision logic

Required Skills

• Telcordia systems (expert): TIRKS, LFACS, Switch OS, SOAC — deep familiarity with data models, record structures, and operational workflows
• NAR: circuit utilization, data mining, and decom modeling
• IVAPP: provisioning and service profile data, circuit-to-facility relationships
• Nautilus / IEN: trail-level network data, interoffice facility and circuit relationships
• OSP/IOF (extensive): outside plant and interoffice facility design, assignment, and retirement workflows
• Business/systems analysis: ability to document complex processes, write requirements, and bridge network operations and technical development teams
• Communication: superior written and verbal skills; able to translate complex network data into plain language for stakeholders and leadership
• Data fluency: comfortable working with large structured datasets, validating records, and identifying anomalies without needing to write code

Nice to Have

• Experience supporting network decommission or consolidation programs
• Legacy transport migration planning experience
• Familiarity with AI tools (Claude, Gemini, or similar) for automation and efficiency
• Experience with Smartsheet or Canvas for project tracking and reporting
• Familiarity with Python or SQL for data validation and ad-hoc queries
• Familiarity with BPMN or structured process notation

Education & Certifications

• Bachelor's degree or four or more years of relevant work experience
• Six or more years of relevant telecom industry experience
• Advanced degree or certification in Telecommunications, Network Engineering, or Project Management a plus
