What this job asks for AI summary

This role supports and enhances enterprise network infrastructure management, monitoring, and automation platforms in large-scale environments such as telecommunications, utilities, or operational technology networks. Day-to-day work spans system administration across Linux/UNIX/Windows, scripting and automation, network management protocol support (SNMP, TL1, NETCONF), and application integration — operating and maintaining the tooling that manages complex network infrastructure rather than building new software products.

Why we read it this way (6)

The role title includes both 'Engineer' and 'Analyst', and the work spans network management platform operations, system administration, and scripting/automation. It primarily involves operating and maintaining existing infrastructure management tooling rather than building new software, which points to 15-1244; however, the scripting/automation and integration development duties create some ambiguity with 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) or even 15-1252.

The Required Qualifications list Python, Ansible, Shell scripting, Perl, and Expect together under 'scripting or automation technologies such as' — the 'such as' qualifier means the specific tools are interchangeable, but the scripting/automation capability itself is a hard gate. Each named tool is captured as required accordingly.

Preferred network management platforms (Micro Focus/OpenText Network Automation, MegaSys Telenium, Ciena Navigator, Nokia NSP/NFM-P, Adtran AOE/MCP) are listed under Preferred Qualifications and are not required.

AI-enabled operations and analytics appear only under Preferred Qualifications as a familiarity item; captured as preferred.

No compensation, degree requirement, employment type, or security clearance is stated in the posting.

Ignored 2 non-technology phrase(s) as skills (responsibilities/concepts, not named tools): Micro Focus Network Automation, AI/ML operations.
