3What this role really is

A Telecoms Engineer keeps networks running, fixing faults and handling the day-to-day work that keeps systems online.

4What you'd actually use

The tools this job runs on, and how well you'd need to know each one.

SolarWinds NPM / Zabbix Intermediate

Navigating dashboards, acknowledging alerts, pulling basic performance reports (CPU, memory, interface utilisation), and beginning to build custom views for specific network segments.

Wireshark Intermediate

Performing basic packet captures, applying complex display filters (e.g., by IP address, protocol, or port), following TCP streams, and identifying common issues like TCP retransmissions or application response delays.

Cisco IOS / Juniper Junos CLI Intermediate

Comfortable with `show` commands, basic interface configuration, password changes, saving/backing up configs, and performing guided changes. You'll also be able to implement complex configurations (e.g., BGP neighbours, OSPF areas, QoS policies) with some supervision.

Ansible / Python (Netmiko) Basic

Running pre-written playbooks or scripts to perform bulk changes (e.g., updating NTP servers on 100 switches). You'll understand the basic logic of these scripts and be able to make minor modifications under guidance.

Visio / Lucidchart / Confluence Intermediate

Reading and making minor updates to existing network diagrams and documentation pages. You'll also be able to create simple Layer 2/3 diagrams from scratch for new deployments or changes.

Splunk / ELK Stack Intermediate

Running basic and complex searches to find events related to a specific device, IP address, or error message during a troubleshooting session. You'll be able to identify patterns in log data to diagnose issues.

5What you get to decide, and how that grows

Power in a job isn't your title. It's what you're allowed to decide. Here's how it grows as you move up.

The choice	Coming in	Where you are now	The step above
Troubleshooting Approach for Tier 2 Incident	Follow prescribed runbooks; escalate if runbook fails or issue is novel.	Independently choose troubleshooting methodology; consult senior for novel or high-impact issues.	Define troubleshooting methodology for complex issues; guide junior engineers.
Network Configuration Changes (Standard)	Perform changes under direct supervision; all configurations reviewed.	Independently implement standard changes following change management; peer review recommended.	Approve standard changes for junior engineers; implement complex changes independently.
Purchase of Network Equipment/Software	No authority; identify needs and propose to supervisor.	Propose equipment/software up to £1,000; requires Senior Engineer approval.	Approve purchases up to £5,000; recommend larger investments to management.
On-Call Incident Resolution	Resolve basic issues with clear runbooks; escalate complex issues to on-call senior.	Resolve most Tier 2 on-call incidents independently; escalate only for major outages or novel problems.	Lead resolution of major on-call incidents; act as escalation point for junior engineers.

6How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, and what is not on it. The hard targets, how often each is actually looked at, and the quiet signals that never reach a dashboard.

Mean Time to Resolution (MTTR) for Tier 2 Incidents

The average time it takes you to resolve network incidents that have been escalated from Tier 1.

Target · Reduce average resolution time by 15% quarter-over-quarter.

If your average MTTR was 4 hours last quarter, we'd expect it to be around 3 hours 24 minutes this quarter for your assigned tickets. That means getting to the bottom of things faster.

Change Success Rate

The percentage of network changes you implement that are completed without causing an incident or requiring a rollback.

Target · Maintain a 99%+ success rate for all network changes you implement.

If you implement 50 changes in a month, no more than one should cause an issue. That's about precision and following the process.

Monitoring Alert Reduction (False Positives)

The number of alerts generated by our network monitoring systems that turn out to be non-issues or 'noise' after your investigation.

Target · Reduce your contribution to false positive alerts by 10% over six months.

If you're investigating 20 false alerts a month, we'd like to see that drop to 18. It means you're getting better at spotting the real issues and tuning out the noise.

Documentation Updates & Accuracy

The completeness and accuracy of network diagrams and configuration documentation for systems you manage or troubleshoot.

Target · Ensure 95% of your assigned documentation updates are completed and accurate within project timelines.

After configuring a new VLAN, you'll update the relevant Visio diagram and Confluence page within 24 hours, making sure it reflects the actual setup. No one likes outdated docs.

Troubleshooting Efficacy

Your ability to systematically diagnose complex network problems, moving beyond simple fixes to identify root causes.

You're not just restarting devices
you're using Wireshark to analyse packets, checking logs in Splunk, and methodically ruling out possibilities. Your incident reports clearly detail the steps taken and the logical reasoning behind them. Senior engineers trust your initial analysis.

Proactive Issue Identification

How often you spot potential network problems (e.g., unusual traffic patterns, device health warnings) before they become critical incidents.

You're regularly checking monitoring dashboards and log files, not just waiting for an alert. You bring potential issues to your senior's attention with a suggested course of action. You might even spot a 'flapping port' before it causes a wider outage.

Collaboration & Communication

Your effectiveness in working with other IT teams (e.g., server, applications) during troubleshooting and project work, and clearly communicating technical issues to non-technical staff.

Other teams actively seek your input during cross-functional issues. You can explain a complex routing problem to a project manager without using jargon. You don't engage in the 'it's always the network' blame game, but rather work to solve the problem together.

Learning & Development Application

How well you apply new knowledge and skills gained from training or self-study to your daily tasks and projects.

You're experimenting with new commands or automation scripts you've learned. You're asking insightful questions that show you've been digging into topics. You might even share a new troubleshooting technique you picked up with the team.

7Would you like it

Both sides. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy

Solving Complex Puzzles

You get a genuine kick out of diagnosing an intermittent network issue that's been baffling everyone. You love the 'aha!' moment when you finally pinpoint the root cause after hours of methodical investigation. It's like being a detective for data.

Spending an afternoon using Wireshark to figure out why a specific application's traffic is 'hairpinning' through a firewall when it shouldn't be, and then fixing it.

Keeping Things Running (Operational Stability)

You feel a real sense of responsibility for the network's uptime. The idea of a critical system going down because of something you missed bothers you. You're motivated by the direct impact of your work on the business's ability to operate.

Proactively identifying an overloaded link on a monitoring dashboard and taking steps to re-route traffic before it becomes a customer-facing issue.

Continuous Learning & Mastery

You're always keen to learn about new network technologies, protocols, or troubleshooting techniques. You enjoy diving deep into technical documentation or experimenting in a lab environment. You want to master your craft.

Spending some personal time to understand how a new routing protocol works, then applying that knowledge to improve a segment of our test network.

What frustrates people

Being the default scapegoat for every slow application, forcing you to spend hours proving network innocence with packet captures.
Vendor finger-pointing, where the ISP, hardware vendor, and software provider all blame each other during a multi-vendor outage.
Spending days troubleshooting an intermittent issue that mysteriously disappears the moment you start actively monitoring it.
Relying on outdated documentation from three years ago to troubleshoot a critical outage, only to find it's dangerously inaccurate.
The reality that most significant network changes must be performed in the dead of night or on a weekend to minimise business impact, wrecking your sleep schedule.
Scope creep in projects, where a simple request to add a new VLAN snowballs into a full network segment redesign without any adjustment to the deadline.
Being forced to support ancient, out-of-warranty hardware that lacks modern features and is a ticking time bomb for failure.

What this role does not give you

A 9-to-5, no-on-call, predictable work schedule (expect some out-of-hours work and on-call rotation).
A role where you only work on greenfield projects (you'll spend a lot of time maintaining and fixing existing infrastructure).
A completely blame-free environment (the network often gets the first blame, fair or not).
A role with zero administrative tasks (documentation, ticketing, and compliance checks are part of the job).

8Who you work with

This role directly impacts the operational stability and performance of our entire network infrastructure. Your ability to quickly diagnose and fix issues means less downtime for our staff and customers, which directly protects our revenue and reputation. You're a key part of ensuring our digital services are always available, which, let's be honest, is pretty fundamental to everything we do.

Inside the business

Senior Telecoms Engineers (for guidance and escalation)
IT Service Desk (for incident handover and updates)
Server and Applications Teams (for cross-functional troubleshooting)
Project Managers (for small network project delivery)
Security Operations Team (for network security incidents)

Outside the business

Internet Service Providers (ISPs)
Hardware Vendors (Cisco, Juniper, etc.)
Software Vendors (monitoring tools, automation platforms)

9What you need before you start

Not a wish list. The things you would be expected to already have.

At least 2 years of hands-on experience in a network support or engineering role, where you've actually touched network devices and dealt with real-world issues.
A solid understanding of core networking concepts: IP addressing, subnetting, VLANs, and basic routing principles (e.g., static routes, default gateways).
Experience with command-line interfaces (CLI) for network devices, particularly Cisco IOS or Juniper Junos. You should be comfortable with `show` commands and basic configuration changes.
Familiarity with network monitoring tools and the ability to interpret alerts and performance data.
Proven ability to troubleshoot network connectivity and performance issues systematically, not just by guessing.
Experience following change management processes and producing clear documentation.

10What to practise next

Where the job is going, and what to do about it starting this week.

Advanced Network Troubleshooting & Diagnostics

As networks become more complex (hybrid cloud, SD-WAN), isolating problems becomes harder. You'll need to move beyond basic `ping` and `traceroute` to deep-dive analysis across multiple domains, often involving application and server teams.

Application Performance Monitoring (APM) integration · Advanced Packet Analysis · Log Correlation and Visualisation · Network Flow Analysis (NetFlow/IPFIX)

This week: Practice advanced Wireshark filtering on captured traffic from a known issue.
This month: Build a Splunk dashboard to visualise a specific network performance metric over time.
Month 2: Shadow a senior engineer during a complex, cross-functional incident to observe their diagnostic process.
Month 3: Take ownership of a recurring 'chasing ghosts' issue and apply advanced diagnostic techniques to finally resolve it.

Quick win: Start using Wireshark's 'Expert Information' feature to quickly identify potential issues in a packet capture. It's a quick way to get more out of your existing tool.

Network Security Hardening & Best Practices

Cyber threats are constantly evolving, and the network is often the first line of defence. You'll need to move beyond just implementing firewall rules to actively hardening devices, understanding common attack vectors, and contributing to a 'Zero Trust' approach.

Secure Configuration Baselines · Threat Intelligence Integration · Network Access Control (NAC) · Zero Trust Network Architecture (ZTNA) principles

This week: Review our current network device hardening standards and identify any gaps.
This month: Research common network attack vectors (e.g., DDoS, port scanning) and how they're mitigated at the network layer.
Month 2: Work with the security team to implement a small security improvement, like strengthening SNMP community strings or disabling unused ports.
Month 3: Take an online course on network security fundamentals or a relevant certification like CompTIA Security+.

Quick win: Perform a basic security audit of a non-production switch, checking for default passwords, unused services, and open ports. It's a simple way to start thinking like an attacker.

11Staying current once you are in

What people here do to keep up

Regularly engage with industry blogs, forums (e.g., Reddit's r/networking), and technical communities to stay current with new technologies and troubleshooting techniques.
Attend webinars and virtual conferences from vendors like Cisco, Juniper, or Fortinet to learn about their latest offerings and best practices.
Set up a home lab (physical or virtual) to experiment with new configurations, protocols, and automation scripts without impacting production systems.
Actively seek out mentorship from senior engineers within our team, asking questions and learning from their experience.
Contribute to internal knowledge bases and documentation, sharing your learnings and helping others.

12The rising capability

What's rising in its place

This is where the work is heading, and the higher pay with it. Get fluent here and the shift stops being a threat and starts being your edge.

Network Automation Scripting (Python & APIs)

Manual configuration of hundreds of network devices is slow, error-prone, and frankly, a waste of your valuable time. Competitors are using automation to deploy changes in minutes that used to take days. Engineers who can script will be far more efficient and valuable.

Python Fundamentals
Netmiko / NAPALM
REST APIs for Network Devices
Version Control (Git)

Cloud Networking Concepts (Advanced)

Our business, like many others, is moving more and more services to the cloud. Understanding how to design, deploy, and troubleshoot networks in AWS, Azure, or GCP isn't just a 'nice to have' anymore; it's becoming fundamental. Traditional on-premise skills won't be enough.

Working with AI on the job

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

Let's be real, a lot of network engineering can be repetitive, time-consuming, and frankly, a bit of a grind. But what if you could offload some of that grunt work to AI? Imagine spending less time sifting through logs and more time on high-impact problem-solving and strategic projects. Our AI productivity hub isn't just theory; it's packed with practical tools and techniques you can use today.

For a Telecoms Engineer, AI isn't here to replace your expertise; it's here to augment it. Think of it as having a hyper-efficient assistant who can crunch data, summarise reports, and even spot patterns you might miss. This means you can focus on the critical thinking, the design, and the complex troubleshooting that really needs your human touch. Here's a glimpse of how AI can transform your day-to-day:

Automated Root Cause Analysis

Use AIOps platforms to ingest logs, metrics, and topology data. The AI correlates events across different network domains to pinpoint the likely root cause of an outage in minutes, not hours of manual log diving. This means faster fixes and less stress during incidents.

Predictive Failure Analysis

AI models analyse long-term performance data – things like interface errors, memory creep, or fan speeds. It can predict when a piece of hardware is likely to fail, letting us proactively replace it during a planned maintenance window. No more unexpected 2 AM 'truck rolls' for hardware failures.

Security Vulnerability Summarisation

Point an AI assistant at a newly announced CVE (Common Vulnerability and Exposure) report for a network OS. It can summarise the threat, identify which specific device models are affected in our environment, and even draft an initial impact assessment and remediation plan. Saves you hours of research time.

Post-Incident Report Generation

After an outage, feed the incident timeline, ticket notes, and key metrics into an AI tool. It can generate a structured, business-friendly Post-Incident Report (PIR) draft, including a summary, timeline, business impact, and root cause. You then refine it, saving you 1-2 hours of tedious documentation work per incident.

Common questions

How do you become a Telecoms Engineer?
