• Lead or coordinate POCs, friendly user trials, UAT support, and technical validation activities.
• Identify impacts to transport, IP, NOC, field ops, OSS/BSS, care, provisioning, and billing, and drive closure of gaps before launch.
• Support cross-functional working sessions to align engineering, operational, and technical launch requirements.
• Surface risks, dependencies, and tradeoffs early and provide recommendations to leadership.
• Support post-launch analysis, KPI definition, issue triage, and continuous improvement.
• Stay current on technology trends and advise the business on technical applicability and readiness of emerging solutions.

• 5+ years of experience in product engineering, product development, service engineering, technical program delivery, network engineering, or systems integration.
• Experience with technical evaluation, testing, certification, or launch of telecom/technology products.
• Ability to translate business needs into technical requirements and structured implementation plans.
• Strong analytical, documentation, and stakeholder management skills.
