• Contributor to support N&T Sub-System Radio deployment activities (Installation, Test & Commissioning)

What are my responsibilities?

• Accountable to reach QCD commitments for N&T sub-system Design and to manage trade-offs between work packages while seeking for QCD performance in the frame of N&T sub-system in accordance with contractual requirements of Wi-Fi and LTE (e.g. Make/Buy proposals, Re-Design to improve variable costs)
• Elaborate N&T sub-system Design specifications (Preliminary Design & Detailed Design) in line with N&T Engineering rules and relying on best practices inherited from previous projects (cross reviews with installation teams, cybersecurity teams, power experts…)
• Elaborate N&T sub-system BoQ and support installation manager in the scope of N&T sub-system
• Maintain close follow-up on technical gaps implementation
• Check that external interfaces are consistent with N&T sub-system
• Supervise and participate in the System deliveries (requirements, System documentation, Performance)
• Support the functional validation phase of the sub-system
• Responsible to manage the iteration of the Sub-System configuration all along project life cycle till end of warranty period,
• Actively support installation and commissioning teams in their respective Metier activities, in the frame of N&T sub-system (golden samples, technical investigations, return of experience…)
