  • Strong understanding of SIP protocol, call flows, codecs, RTP/RTCP.
  • Solid experience with dial plans, AGI/ARI, queues, IVR, and call routing.
  • Familiarity with Linux administration (Debian/Ubuntu/CentOS).
  • Experience integrating telephony with external systems using APIs or middleware.
  • Understanding of VoIP networking (VLANs, QoS, NAT, firewalls, SBCs).
  • Knowledge of call center operations, KPIs, reporting, and call handling strategy.
Nice to have
  • Experience with Kamailio/OpenSIPS for SIP proxying.
  • Experience with WebRTC and SIP over WebSocket.
  • Familiarity with cloud telephony platforms (AWS Chime, Twilio).
  • Experience with hybrid Ciscoโ€“Asterisk environments.
Key Responsibilities
  • Configure, manage, and troubleshoot Asterisk PBX systems (SIP, PJSIP, DAHDI, AMI/ARI).
  • Implement routing logic, dial plans, call queues, call forwarding, and failover scenarios.
  • Maintain SIP trunks and providers (TCP/UDP/TLS/SRTP).
  • Ensure system uptime, performance tuning, call quality monitoring (QoS, jitter, latency, MOS).
Cisco Telephony / Call Center Systems
  • Configure and maintain Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM), Cisco CUBE, Cisco SIP Gateways, and Cisco Contact Center (UCCX/UCCE) components.
  • Troubleshoot interoperability issues between Cisco and Asterisk, including SIP normalization, dial plan alignment, codecs, and media routing.
  • Manage Cisco voice routing, SIP trunks, SRST, and redundancy configurations.
  • Apply Cisco best practices for VoIP security, QoS, VLAN segmentation, and failover.
Call Center Systems Integration
  • Integrate Asterisk and Cisco telephony systems with CRM/Helpdesk/Call Center platforms (e.g., Cisco CCX, Genesys, Zendesk, Avaya, custom CRM).
  • Develop and maintain API-based integrations (REST, Webhooks, AMI/ARI events).
  • Work with call center reporting/analytics tools (CDR, queue logs, call recordings).
  • Configure SIP proxies, SBCs, NAT traversal (STUN/TURN/ICE), and SIP security.
  • Manage RTP flows, media servers, and transcoding (G.711, G.729, Opus, GSM).
  • Configure and troubleshoot Cisco SBC/CUBE, SIP normalization profiles, and dialโ€‘peer routing.
  • Implement high availability, redundancy, and loadโ€‘balancing for telephony services.
Monitoring & Security
  • Maintain logging/monitoring tools (Grafana, Prometheus, Asterisk logs, sngrep, Homer/HEP).
  • Ensure VoIP security: SIP authentication, firewall rules, intrusion prevention, and antiโ€‘fraud.
  • Maintain backup/restore processes for configurations, prompts, and call recordings.
