What are some common challenges faced by Remote Nokia RAN Engineers, and how can they be addressed?

Remote Nokia RAN Engineers often encounter challenges like troubleshooting network issues without on-site access, managing multiple remote sites, and staying up-to-date with evolving Nokia technologies. These challenges can be addressed by leveraging advanced remote access tools, maintaining strong documentation, and participating in continuous professional development and training on Nokia RAN solutions. Effective communication with on-site teams and other remote engineers is also crucial to ensure smooth operations and quick problem resolution.

What is a Remote Nokia RAN Engineer?

A Remote Nokia RAN (Radio Access Network) Engineer is a telecommunications professional who specializes in configuring, optimizing, and maintaining Nokia's RAN equipment and software from a remote location. Their primary responsibilities include monitoring network performance, troubleshooting issues, implementing upgrades, and ensuring seamless connectivity for mobile networks. These engineers work with Nokia-specific technologies such as LTE, 5G, and associated network management tools. By working remotely, they support mobile operators and service providers in maintaining high network reliability and performance without being onsite.

What is the difference between Remote Nokia Ran Engineer vs Remote 5G Network Engineer?

AspectRemote Nokia Ran EngineerRemote 5G Network Engineer
Certifications Nokia certifications, CCNA, Cisco certificationsFCC, Cisco, Nokia certifications, 5G-specific training
Work Environment Telecom sites, network operation centers, remote troubleshooting 5G infrastructure, telecom sites, remote network design
Industry Usage Telecom operators, network service providers Telecom, mobile network providers, 5G technology firms

Remote Nokia Ran Engineers focus on LTE and 4G network deployment and maintenance, while Remote 5G Network Engineers specialize in 5G infrastructure and technology. Both roles require telecom certifications and involve remote troubleshooting, but 5G roles emphasize newer technology and higher bandwidth networks.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Remote Nokia RAN Engineer, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Nokia RAN Engineer, you need expertise in radio access network (RAN) technologies, a solid understanding of cellular communication (2G/3G/4G/5G), and typically an engineering degree in telecommunications or a related field. Familiarity with Nokia RAN equipment, network management tools like NetAct, and relevant certifications such as Nokia NRS I/II are often required. Strong analytical skills, effective communication, and the ability to resolve technical issues remotely are critical soft skills. These skills ensure efficient network performance, minimize downtime, and support seamless connectivity for service providers and users.

Job description

Point Broadband and Clearwave Fiber are affiliated companies operating as part of a combined organization. This opportunity is a Point Broadband position, and candidates selected for hire will be employed by Point Broadband under Point Broadband's benefit plans, payroll, and employment policies.
Network Reliability Engineer
Remote - Successful candidate must live in a state in which Point Broadband operates (AL, FL, GA, MD, MI, NY, OH, TN, TX, or VA) #LI-remote
Summary:
Point Broadband is seeking a Network Reliability Engineer to help ensure the stability, scalability, and operational excellence of our production network. This role focuses on the reliability and operational ownership of core routing and switching platforms across our multi-market environment, including market core/edge and backbone connectivity where applicable.
The engineer in this position serves as a senior escalation point for complex routing and switching incidents affecting production services. Operating within a Network Reliability Engineering (NRE) model, this role emphasizes strong troubleshooting, operational discipline, and continuous improvement across a network built through both organic growth and acquisitions.
In addition to resolving critical issues, this engineer helps drive operational maturity through Operational Readiness Reviews (ORRs), root cause analysis (RCA), and ongoing improvements to monitoring, documentation, and operational runbooks.
Note: This is a production reliability role focused on operational ownership and incident response (not purely an architecture or deployment role).
Duties and Responsibilities:
Essential duties and responsibilities include but are not limited to:
  • Act as a senior escalation point for complex routing and switching issues impacting production services, lead triage and restoration during critical incidents.
  • Operate and support core routing/switching environments across market cores/edges and backbone connectivity; validate stability, redundancy, and performance.
  • Participate in on-call rotation and provide after-hours escalation support for critical network events.
  • Lead or contribute to RCAs for major incidents and recurring issues; drive corrective actions that prevent repeat outages.
  • Improve observability and operational standards through better monitoring, logging/telemetry use, and alert quality.
  • Partner with the NOC to improve operational outcomes through knowledge transfer, runbooks, and troubleshooting standards that reduce escalations.
  • Participate in ORRs for new systems, capacity upgrades, and major changes to ensure production readiness (monitoring, documentation, rollback plans, and support requirements).
  • Define support requirements for new network technologies and participate in roadmap planning.
  • Document designs, operational standards, and change procedures in a clear, reusable format.
  • Maintain punctual, consistent attendance.
  • Other duties as assigned.

Qualifications:
To perform this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform each essential duty satisfactorily. The requirements listed below are representative of the knowledge, skill, and/or ability required. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions.
Education/Experience:
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field; or equivalent military/industry experience.
  • Experience operating and troubleshooting production ISP/service provider networks or large-scale enterprise networks with comparable complexity.
  • Proven experience in a Tier 3/Tier 4 escalation role supporting complex routing and switching incidents in production.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to collaborate effectively during incident response across engineering, operations, and vendor teams.

Technical Skillset:
  • Hands-on experience implementing and troubleshooting BGP and at least one IGP (OSPF and/or IS-IS). Strong understanding of routing policy, convergence behavior, and failure-domain isolation.
  • Switching: Strong Layer 2/Layer 3 fundamentals including VLAN architecture, trunking, LAG/LACP, MTU, QinQ, and practical troubleshooting of spanning-tree and adjacency issues.
  • Demonstrated ability to diagnose customer-impacting network problems using monitoring/telemetry/logs, device-level tools, and structured troubleshooting methodology; comfortable owning restoration plans during outages.
  • Working familiarity with technologies commonly found in ISP environments such as DHCP, CGN, IPv6, multicast, and QoS (depth can vary by area but must be comfortable supporting production issues).
  • Experience configuring and troubleshooting Juniper and/or Arista routing/switching platforms in production.
  • Experience supporting legacy or multi-vendor environments including Nokia 7750, Ciena 5164, Ericsson 6675, and/or MikroTik CCR platforms preferred.
  • Familiarity with automation/scripting (Python, Ansible, etc.) used to improve reliability or operational efficiency preferred.
  • Certifications such as CCNP/CCIE, JNCIP/JNCIE, or equivalent practical experience preferred.

Example Engineering Challenges:
Engineers in this role regularly work on problems such as:
  • Diagnosing routing convergence issues impacting multiple sites/markets.
  • Investigating intermittent packet loss, latency, or microbursts across core paths.
  • Troubleshooting asymmetric routing, policy issues, or traffic engineering anomalies.
  • Stabilizing legacy designs inherited through acquisitions while driving standardization.
  • Supporting capacity expansions and routing policy changes at market cores/edges.
  • Improving monitoring, alert quality, and runbooks to reduce NOC escalations.
  • Completing RCAs after major incidents and driving actions that prevent repeats.
