Core Network Product Technical Engineer
Huawei Technologies Ethiopia PLCAbout This Role
This is a hands-on, technically demanding role that combines deep engineering expertise with customer-facing project delivery. As a Cloud Core Delivery Engineer at Huawei, you will be responsible for the entire lifecycle of core network projects—from design and installation to migration and optimization. It suits experienced telecom engineers who are comfortable working on-site at customer locations and can take ownership of technical risk and solution quality.
What the Requirements Say About This Role
The employer is looking for a mid-level engineer who already has a strong grasp of cloud core network technologies and can independently manage complex delivery tasks. The emphasis on end-to-end delivery, technical leadership, and pre-sales support implies that you should be both a problem-solver and a communicator—someone who can translate technical details into practical solutions for clients. The role expects you to have at least 3-5 years of hands-on experience, not just theoretical knowledge.
How to Approach This Application
In your application, highlight specific projects where you led or contributed to core network deployments, migrations, or upgrades. Emphasise your ability to manage technical risks and your experience working directly with customers—Huawei values engineers who can represent the company professionally on-site. Tailor your CV to show familiarity with cloud core technologies and any vendor certifications (e.g., Huawei, Cisco, or other telecom equipment providers).
Who This Role Suits
This role is ideal for a mid-career telecom engineer who thrives in project-based, customer-facing environments and is ready to take on technical leadership responsibilities. Competition is moderate to high, as Huawei is a major employer in Ethiopia’s telecom sector and attracts strong local talent.
