About this opportunity
The Ericsson Network Engineering Services organisation delivers world-class lab environment end-to-end including lab facility infrastructure, lab network, lab IT, hardware and lab test bed installation services to Ericsson Research and Development (R&D) organizations worldwide.
Our lab operations work ensures that IT and telecommunications hardware is correctly installed, connected to the appropriate infrastructure, and accessible to remote R&D users for monitoring, configuration, and testing.
Are you interested in working in an R&D lab and data-centre environment using advanced IT and telecommunications technologies?
As a lab operations support engineer / developer, you will gain insight into—and contribute to—the integration and operation of lab hardware and infrastructure in a complex IT and telecom environment. The Lund R&D labs and data centres include hundreds of interconnected nodes and systems that must operate reliably together.
The role has a broad scope, with a particular focus on lab infrastructure, the lab IT environment, and the planning and implementation of test-bed installations for R&D users in Lund.
What you will do
Together with your colleagues in the lab operations team, you will be responsible for:
- Planning and executing lab installations, including capacity planning and documenting test-bed installations in the global Hydra tool.
- Operating and supporting lab synchronization systems, including 10 MHz and GPS-based synchronization.
- Managing RF calibration, signal levels, and radio-frequency planning.
- Operating and maintaining the lab IT infrastructure, including virtualization environments supporting lab clients.
- Supporting lab network operations and the migration of legacy labs to the modernized NW2.0 network environment.
- Contributing to IT security and vulnerability management activities.
- Developing and improving team processes, tools, and ways of working.
- Collaborating with R&D users and other stakeholders to plan and deliver reliable lab environments.
