About the role
- Every MNO onboarding ends at a technical test gate.
Responsibilities
- Own the IREG Testing Strategy: Define the roadmap for MNO onboarding-including clear pass/fail criteria, evidence requirements, and sign-off processes-so we can scale our roaming partnerships faster and more reliably.
- Drive Testing Innovation: Look beyond manual execution to build a long-term automation strategy that makes our roaming validation smarter, faster, and eventually hands-free.
- Build the Testing Lab: Design, scale, and maintain an automation harness capable of reliably running both standard GSMA and custom NB-IoT NTN scenarios.
- Ensure End-to-End Interoperability: Validate the entire roaming journey (Registration, S6a/S6d, SGd, IP, NIDD), ensuring smooth handoffs across satellite and cellular networks.
- Translate Complex Tech into Test Cases: Build comprehensive test scenarios by combining GSMA standards, partner network configurations, and our unique NB-IoT NTN traffic profiles.
- Own the Defect Lifecycle: Don't just log bugs-track them down to the root cause, partner with engineering on the fix, and see them through to complete closure.
- Keep Leadership Informed: Build and share clear dashboards covering test cycle times, defect rates, and overall readiness so the business always knows where MNO onboarding stands.
