Description

Telecom Data Engineer | OSS/BSS Expert | 19+ Years

I help telecom operators design, build, and optimize their data pipelines, mediation systems, and OSS/BSS integrations — from architecture to delivery.

With 19+ years working across Tier-1 operators in EMEA (STC, Mobily, Vodafone, Ooredoo, Telenet), I bring hands-on expertise at every layer of the telecom data stack: from high-volume CDR mediation (2.2 billion records/day) and real-time streaming with Kafka, to network inventory, service fulfilment, and TM Forum-aligned order management.

What I can do for you:

Design and implement ETL pipelines and mediation streams for high-volume telecom data

Build and integrate OSS/BSS systems (provisioning, activation, inventory, order management)

Architect real-time data processing solutions using Kafka, Couchbase, and Spring Boot

Deliver TM Forum-compliant solutions (eTOM, TMF640/641) for service and product ordering

Integrate network elements and NMS systems (Nokia, Ciena, Infinera, Alcatel-Lucent) via ONF-TAPI and REST/SOAP

Develop Camunda workflows for service orchestration

Reverse-engineer and modernize legacy BSS/OSS systems toward decoupled, API-first architectures

Technologies: Java/J2EE, Python, Kafka, Couchbase, Hadoop, Oracle/PostgreSQL, Spring Boot, Camunda, REST/SOAP, Shell scripting, Azure, PL/SQL, XML

Domains: Network Inventory · Service Fulfilment · Order Management · Online Charging (Diameter) · Mediation · Provisioning & Activation · Network Element Integration · Data Migration

Industries served: Fixed & Mobile Telecoms, Tier-1 EMEA Operators
