- Own configuration standards, templates, and governance to ensure consistency across Gateway sites constraints and deployment workflow requirements
- Coordinate and validate BOMs with Engineering, Supply Chain, and vendors for completeness and accuracy
- Establish technical validation criteria and acceptance standards for RAN network at Gateway location
- Ensure CIQs, configuration guides, port mappings, and as-built documentation are complete and deployment-ready
- Coordinate technical requirements gathering sessions with engineering stakeholders, site development teams, and operations personnel
- Ensure technical specifications support scalable satellite-gateway location development across diverse geographical environments
- Enable smooth technical handover to Service Acceptance and Operations, ensuring documentation completeness and traceability
- Support change control by ensuring updates reflected across HLDs, BOMs, configurations, and documentation
Site Feasibility & Validation Management
- Lead technical site feasibility assessments including RF propagation analysis, interference studies, and infrastructure capability evaluations for RAN network deployment
- Validate site feasibility against established technical criteria, and operational deployment standards
- Coordinate multi-disciplinary feasibility studies involving RF engineering, utilities assessment, and regulatory compliance teams
- Manage technical risk assessments and mitigation strategies for site acquisition projects
- Establish standardized feasibility validation processes and documentation frameworks
Cross-Functional Engineering Coordination
- Coordinate engineering inputs from RF engineering, satellite systems, network operations, and infra
