Role Overview
NTT Data is seeking a Lead Network Engineer / Consultant with deep Alcatel‐Lucent Enterprise (ALE) expertise to design and guide the delivery of a large, highly complex campus network operating in a mission‐critical, zero‐downtime environment.
This is a design‐led role, not a configuration‐only position. You will take ownership of end‐to‐end campus network architecture, act as the primary Alcatel SME, and provide technical leadership across internal engineers, delivery partners, and senior stakeholders. The environment is comparable to Campus‐level complexity, with strict requirements around availability, segmentation, compliance, and legacy integration.
