Build and test complex network topologies in lab environments (switches, access devices, tunnels, forwarding modes, QoS features).
Generate, measure, and analyze gigabit-scale traffic to evaluate protocol performance, latency and priority handling; identify bugs and assess feature behavior.
Develop automated tests and test suites in Python/Robot Framework; contribute to test framework, CI pipelines, and debugging tooling to improve testing efficiency.
Hands-on lab/networking experience with switches/routers and access networks.
Strong scripting/testing automation (Python; Robot Framework).
Experience with virtualization and lab-scale network deployments; understanding of QoS, routing protocols, and forwarding concepts.

In Nokia's Network Infrastructure division, we "make" the internet. Every aspect of hardware & software that provides worldwide internet access across the globe is part of our portefolio. Here in Antwerp, our group is focusing on Fixed Broadband Access, more specifically Fiber-to-the-spot deployments : either homes, institutions, factories, datacenters,... We create the electronics & SW solution to provide a fiber connection anywhere.
Our SW R&D group works on the core of the system: the actual switch/router capabilities that route internet traffic, provide quality-of-service, support different networking protocols. We work on all layers, from very embedded code on our own processor-architecture, all the way up to linux application development. Our dev & test engineers work with virtualization, on real hardware from a single "blade" to full deployments of an access network in our lab. We are looking for talented test & quality assurance engineers that like to be working in the lab, building networks, configuring switches, access network devices in complex topologies & then test out the different switch, router & quality of service features that our product offers. Setting up differnt types of forwarding modes, tunnels or protocol flows. Then sending gigabits of traffic, analyzing network behavior such as protocol performance, latency, priority-handling,... and understand how a system should behave, find (and fix) bugs as well as help defining features to improve our product. You would be working hands on in labs as well as develop complex automated tests in python & robot-framework, combined with automation tooling (test-framework, CI server automation, debug-tooling development) needed to test a network to its fullest in the most efficient way.
