Senior Engineer

Join our Team

About this opportunity
Ericsson Orchestrator Lifecycle Manager (EO LM) is the latest solution in EO's line-up, which is our answer to the ever changing landscape of orchestration of networking solutions, now streamlined for Kubernetes and the GitOps approach.

EO LM's goal is to provide an orchestration solution which would manage CNF (Container Network Function) based networks, which would be deployed into Kubernetes and would be lifecycle managed by GitOps solutions, where the single source of truth is the Git repository and the lifecycle management is automatically handled by a dedicated microservice without any manual intervention from the user.

EO LM not just provides better end user experience, but utilises the latest approaches and solutions, to create the orchestrator of the next gen networks.
We are seeking a highly motivated, collaborative and experienced Cloud Native Software Development Engineer to join our team.
