Solution Architect - Inventory
About the role
Join our Team
About this Opportunity:
We are excited to present a dynamic opportunity for a Solution Architect – Inventory to join our Core Commerce & Orchestration unit in MEA.
At Ericsson, we are driving the evolution towards autonomous, programmable networks, enabling Communication Service Providers (CSPs) to build a single, trusted source of truth for their network and service data — the foundation for orchestration, assurance, and automation at scale.
This role is focused on working in both Pre-Sales and Delivery, designing and delivering end-to-end inventory solutions, leveraging Ericsson Adaptive Inventory (EAI) as the core engine — enabling unified network and service inventory across physical, logical, and virtual domains.
The architect will play a key role in shaping solutions that enable:
- Unified network inventory across multi-vendor, multi-technology environments
- Service and resource lifecycle management aligned with TM Forum standards
- Foundation layer for orchestration, closed-loop automation, and network assurance
- OSS transformation programs driven by a catalog-driven, API-first inventory architecture
What You Will Do:
- Lead value-based solution positioning and proposal development to secure strategic OSS transformation programs and ensure deliverability
- Act as design authority for major transformation engagements, ensuring inventory solutions align with customer needs and Ericsson's architectural principles
- Own the technical architecture end-to-end: define, scope, and drive design solutions across the Inventory domain, with major focus on EAI. Design end-to-end inventory solutions for:
- Physical, logical, and virtual network resource inventory
- Service inventory aligned with catalog-driven architectures (service/resource modeling)
- Multi-domain topology and connectivity management (RAN, Core, Transport, Cloud)
- Integration with orchestration (ESOA), assurance, and mediation layers
- Lead data migration and data cleansing strategies as part of inventory transformation engagements, ensuring quality, completeness, and consistency of inventory data onboarded from legacy OSS systems
- Contribute to reusable assets (inventory models, integration blueprints, migration patterns) and support standardization and industrialization of delivery approaches to enable faster delivery through reuse and best practices
- Share knowledge, contribute to internal communities, and foster a culture of re-use and continuous learning
You Will Bring:
Must-Haves:
- 10+ years in telecom/OSS domain
- HLD/LLD design & customer-facing experience
- Hands-on experience with network inventory platforms (EAI)
- Deep understanding of network and service resource modeling (physical, logical, virtual layers)
- Experience with data migration from legacy OSS/inventory systems, including data cleansing, reconciliation, and onboarding strategies
- Familiarity with TM Forum Open APIs for inventory (TMF639, TMF640, TMF642, TMF648)
- Good understanding of orchestration (SOM/COM concepts), Order Management, and Assurance integration touchpoints
- Knowledge of multi-technology network domains: RAN, Core, Transport, Cloud/NFV
Can Be Learned on the Job:
- Ericsson-specific tooling & internal processes
- Deep EAI product-specific configuration and administration
- AIOps and closed-loop automation integration specifics
