  • Strong understanding of GSM/WCDMA/LTE/VoLTE and associated 3GPP standards.
  • Proven experience in packet core configuration, protocol trace analysis and KPI troubleshooting with measurable outcomes.
  • Familiarity with SS7, GTP, Diameter and SIP signaling.
  • Practical knowledge of OSPF, IP pool configuration, APN setup, PCRF/OCS/DRA integration, CSFB, SRVCC, TAI management.
