Staff Network Performance Engineer

About the role

Skylo is hiring a Staff Network Performance Engineer to own the definition and implementation of network performance KPIs and metrics within our OSS platform, and to validate that those metrics are accurate and trustworthy before they reach production. You will bridge raw network, RAN, and Core counters with the dashboards, alarms, and reports used by Engineering, NetOps, and leadership.

Key responsibilities

• Implement network performance KPIs and metrics (availability, latency, throughput, attach/registration success, paging, and satellite‑link‑specific counters) in the OSS platform.
• Build and configure KPI formulas, counters, and dashboards directly in the OSS platform, collaborating closely with OSS and NetOps engineering.
• Design and run validation test cases in lab and pre‑production environments to confirm KPI accuracy, detect counter drift or double‑counting, and sign off before production rollout.
• Partner with Network Implementation, Network Operations, and Systems Test teams to align KPI definitions with operational and release‑readiness needs.
• Maintain a single source of truth for KPI definitions, thresholds, and data lineage as the network and OSS platform evolve.
• Identify observability gaps, propose new metrics, and retire metrics that no longer reflect network reality.

Required profile

• 8+ years in telecom network performance, OSS/BSS, or network engineering roles with hands‑on KPI ownership.
• Practical experience implementing and validating KPIs on an OSS/EMS platform, including counter and formula configuration.
• Solid understanding of 3GPP counters and KPIs across RAN and Core; experience with NB‑IoT, NTN, or satellite networks is a strong plus.
• Comfortable designing and executing validation test plans in lab and pre‑production environments with rigorous sign‑off procedures.
• Proficiency with SQL and a scripting language (Python preferred) for data validation; familiarity with dashboarding tools such as Grafana.
• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Telecommunications, Computer Science, or a related field.

Required skills

• SQL
• Python
• Grafana (dashboarding/reporting)

What we offer

• Competitive compensation packages, including a stock‑option‑based equity program.
• Comprehensive benefits plans.
• Monthly allowances for wellness and education reimbursement.
• Generous time‑off policy, holidays, and the opportunity to temporarily work abroad.
• Access to a world‑class team across software, hardware, chipsets, telecom, satellite, and network virtualization domains.
• Open, transparent, inclusive culture blending Silicon Valley, Nordic, and South Asia characteristics.
