Lte Packet Core Engineer information

What does an LTE Packet Core Engineer do?

An LTE Packet Core Engineer is responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining the core network elements that handle data traffic in LTE (Long Term Evolution) mobile networks. They work with technologies like EPC (Evolved Packet Core), which includes components such as MME, SGW, and PGW to support data, voice, and signaling services. Their role involves configuring network elements, troubleshooting connectivity issues, optimizing network performance, and ensuring seamless communication between different parts of the mobile network.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an LTE Packet Core Engineer?

To thrive as an LTE Packet Core Engineer, you need a deep understanding of mobile network architecture, IP networking, and protocols such as GTP, Diameter, and S1 interfaces, typically supported by a degree in telecommunications or a related field. Proficiency with tools like Wireshark, network simulators, and core network elements (MME, SGW, PGW), as well as certifications like CCNA or vendor-specific credentials, is highly valued. Strong analytical thinking, problem-solving skills, and effective communication help engineers collaborate and resolve network issues efficiently. These competencies are vital for ensuring robust network performance, seamless connectivity, and rapid troubleshooting in dynamic telecom environments.

What are the typical challenges faced by an LTE Packet Core Engineer when integrating new network elements?

LTE Packet Core Engineers often encounter challenges such as ensuring interoperability between new and existing network components, managing network downtime during upgrades, and troubleshooting unforeseen connectivity or signaling issues. Integration requires close collaboration with vendors, operations teams, and sometimes external partners to meet performance and security standards. Effective communication and thorough testing are essential to minimize service interruptions and maintain high network reliability.

Job description

Zealot is deploying AI systems at the center of western cyber operations , backed by tier-1 US VCs and industry leaders. Our team includes alumni of Anthropic, xAI, and Anduril. Soon live with close U.S. allies abroad.

APPLIED AI RE VR ERICSSON HUAWEI NOKIA ZTE

Compensation 100K-195K + skin in the game equity

Location New York, NY On Site

Stage Early-stage startup backed by tier 1 investors. Small, growing team with exceptionally high ownership.

  • + Build AI systems that find and exploit vulnerabilities in carrier-grade telecom and ISP infrastructure: core routers, BRAS/BNG, GPON/EPON, DSLAM, CMTS, and mobile packet core.
  • + Reverse engineer firmware and management planes on equipment from Nokia, Ericsson, Huawei, ZTE, Calix, and similar vendors to train models that generalize across platforms.
  • + Target subscriber-edge infrastructure (BRAS, BNG, AAA systems, and RADIUS/DIAMETER stacks) where authentication, session control, and policy enforcement converge.
  • + Develop AI-driven tooling that discovers attack paths through SS7, GTP, DIAMETER, and carrier routing infrastructure at scale.
  • + Turn deep telecom domain knowledge into the systems and data that let machines operate at the backbone level.
  • + Strong experience with telecom or ISP infrastructure security: core networks, access networks, or carrier routing.
  • + Familiarity with carrier-grade platforms: Cisco IOS-XR, Juniper Junos, Nokia SR OS, Huawei VRP, or similar.
  • + Understanding of telecom protocols: SS7/SIGTRAN, GTP, DIAMETER, RADIUS, MPLS, BGP at carrier scale, GPON/EPON.
  • + Experience reverse engineering network equipment firmware or proprietary network operating systems.
  • + Strong C/C++ or Python skills for tooling and exploit development.
Nice to Have
  • + Experience with mobile core network elements (MME, SGW, PGW, HSS, or 5G equivalents).
  • + Familiarity with BRAS/BNG, DSLAM, CMTS, OLT, or other access and subscriber-edge network equipment.
  • + Published CVEs or advisories against telecom or ISP equipment vendors.
  • + Experience with TR-069/CWMP, NETCONF/YANG, RADIUS/DIAMETER AAA, or carrier management protocols.
  • + Experience building with LLMs and AI agents.
  • + Background in CNO, SIGINT, or government telecom operations.
  • + Clearly interested in stepping away from purely manual research and moving toward the development of AI systems.
  • + Building something massive matters more to you than comfort, titles, or predictability.
  • + You want to be early at a company that will change an industry, and you're ready to do what that actually takes.

Note to recruiting firms: Telecom or ISP infrastructure security experience is the core requirement. Carrier-grade routing, mobile core, or access network experience is essential. Candidates from telco vendor security teams, CNO backgrounds, or ISP engineering are ideal.
