Responsibilities include contributing to the optical module roadmap, leading module architecture, defining modular design methodologies, managing vendor technical relationships, and supporting optical integration, testing, characterization, and troubleshooting.

As a Senior QA Engineer, you will design test strategies and automation for optical networking solutions, ensuring quality and performance through manual and automated testing, and collaborating with engineering teams.

Manage hardware development projects for coherent optical modules from concept through completion. Create schedules, coordinate cross-functional teams and suppliers, track milestones, manage risks, oversee prototype builds and purchase orders, analyze performance against time and budget goals, and lead post-mortems to improve future execution.

Leads global legal support for Nokia’s intellectual property monetization, including patent transactions, licensing, M&A, and strategic initiatives. Provides specialist legal advice to partnering, licensing, strategy, patenting, and commercial teams; develops governance and compliance processes; mitigates risks; improves operational efficiency; and trains internal stakeholders. The role requires cross-functional coordination, practical IP law expertise, and support for strategic execution.

The role involves software design and implementation for telecom systems, debugging, and collaborating with hardware teams, focusing on high-quality delivery.

Owns quality engineering for carrier-grade optical networking products. Responsibilities include creating test plans, validating system features and customer scenarios, developing manual and automated test scripts, maintaining test frameworks, analyzing failures and defects, and reporting quality assessments. The role requires testing SONET, SDH, OTN, DWDM, ROADM, optical amplifiers, FCAPS, provisioning, configuration, and protection schemes using test equipment and scripting languages.

Lead end-to-end ECAD layouts for advanced optical L1 cards and pluggable products. Assess layout feasibility with mechanical, thermal, signal integrity, and electrical architects; coordinate manufacturing design-for-excellence requirements; mentor ECAD team members; maintain layout processes and checklists; and contribute to process improvements.

Designs and implements secure telecom network architectures, including firewalls, IDS/IPS, VPNs, and network segmentation.
