Network Hardware Validation Engineer - Kolkata

Proziod Analytics is seeking an experienced Network Hardware Validation Engineer with 8+ years of experience to provide on-site support for network validation, testing, and qualification. This role requires expertise in networking hardware, including switches, routers, and optical transceivers, with the ability to configure and troubleshoot in test environments. The successful candidate will perform on-premises support for network validation testbeds, handling protocol troubleshooting, Layer 1 troubleshooting, cabling, and optics management. Responsibilities also include attending and coordinating team and project meetings, adhering to security and safety best practices, and potentially developing and executing automation scripts. The role involves designing and maintaining custom tests for networking validation and supporting hardware inventory management (shipping, receiving, tracking, distribution).

Key deliverables include the timely completion of Jira ticket assignments, meeting or exceeding exit criteria with 100% execution (aiming for 1 ticket per month for NOS upgrades and Optics Qualifications), and maintaining 95% accuracy on validation test results. Documentation and runbooks must be delivered to satisfaction. Performance will be reviewed quarterly.

The position is based in Santa Clara, California, requiring attendance at the lab facility 5 days per week or on an as-needed basis. While the original posting lists Kolkata as the location, the job description explicitly mentions on-site support in Santa Clara facilities.
