Job description

If Linux is your native language and you can read a SIP trace like a novel, keep going…

You’ll be in the middle of high-impact telecom infrastructure, the kind powering real-world, large-scale platforms. When things break, you’re the one who figures out why.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Live in Linux-troubleshooting complex VoIP environments
  • Break down SIP signaling + RTP flows at the packet level
  • Dive into Wireshark/tcpdump to uncover what others miss
  • Solve production issues in real time (no training wheels)
  • Work alongside engineers who actually know their stuff

What You Bring

  • Strong Linux background (RHEL/CentOS/Ubuntu) - non-negotiable
  • Solid VoIP + SIP experience (telecom mindset matters)
  • Packet analysis skills (Wireshark, tcpdump)
  • Networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, DNS, routing)
  • Comfort in the CLI-no GUI safety nets

Bonus if you’ve touched Asterisk, FreeSWITCH, Kamailio, SBCs, or done any scripting

**U.S. Citizens or Green Card holders only

Why This Role Hits Different You’re not supporting users - you’re supporting infrastructure that can’t fail. You’re not guessing- you’re proving root cause. You’re not coasting - you’re getting sharper every day.

Requirements
