Job Summary

The Circuit Designer – Transport Backbone Network is responsible for designing, optimizing, and provisioning high-capacity transport networks for telecom enterprises. This role focuses on Fiber-optic transmission, DWDM/OTN, MPLS, and Ethernet-based backbone networks, ensuring high availability, scalability, and resilience. The designer collaborates with network architects & operations to plan and implement end-to-end transport solutions

Key Responsibilities

• Design and plan transport backbone networks using DWDM, OTN, SDH/SONET, and IP/MPLS technologies.
• Develop circuit layouts, network schematics, and path protection strategies to ensure network redundancy and fault tolerance.
• Design long-haul, metro, and access transport networks supporting enterprise and carrier-grade services.
• Work with Fiber-optic network planning tools to optimize link budgets, latency, and capacity planning.
• Engineer and provision Fiber-optic circuits, leased lines, and backbone links based on capacity requirements.
• Implement Ethernet, MPLS, and optical transport services to support enterprise and wholesale customers.

Skill Requirements

• Expertise in Fiber-optic transport technologies (DWDM, OTN, SDH/SONET, MPLS-TP).
• Strong understanding of IP/MPLS, Carrier Ethernet, VPNs, and QoS.
• Experience with Fiber path design, link budget analysis, and optical power calculations.
• Hands-on knowledge of network management systems (NMS), EMS, and OSS tools.

Strong problem-solving and analytical skills in circuit and network design

Other Requirements

Education: Bachelor’s degree in Telecommunications, Information Technology, or a related field.

Experience: 2-7 years of experience in transport backbone or fixed-line circuit design roles.
