## About the role

We are seeking an OSS & Automation Architect to serve as the technical bridge between AST's internal stakeholders and the AST OSS engineering team. This is a dual-facing role - outward toward internal business stakeholders and teams in Service Assurance, Service Delivery, and Service Enablement; and inward toward the OSS engineering team and other technical teams to translate what those stakeholders need into precise, buildable specifications.

## What they're looking for

- Deep working knowledge of OSS functions - fault management, service provisioning, performance management, service assurance - and how they integrate with downstream enterprise IT landscape
- Hands-on experience with commercial OSS platforms (Ericsson OSSA, Nokia NSP, NetCracker, Amdocs, Rakuten Symphony or other)
- Experience with TM Forum Open APIs and the eTOM/TAM business process and application frameworks
- Background in ITIL-aligned service management processes, particularly service assurance and incident management workflows
- Experience with workflow and BPM tooling (Camunda, Airflow, ServiceNow, or equivalent) from a requirements or design perspective
- Proven ability to elicit, structure, and deliver FRs and NFRs from business stakeholders in a form directly usable by an engineering team
