About The Position

At T-Mobile, we invest in YOU! Our Total Rewards Package ensures that employees get the same big love we give our customers. All team members receive a competitive base salary and compensation package - this is Total Rewards. Employees enjoy multiple wealth-building opportunities through our annual stock grant, employee stock purchase plan, 401(k), and access to free, year-round money coaches. That’s how we’re UNSTOPPABLE for our employees! Job Overview This role develops and enhances technical network and service architectures that support T-Mobile’s voice and call routing ecosystem, including IMS and PSTN connectivity. The position focuses on embedding AI-enabled automation directly into production network workflows — improving how changes move from intake through implementation and closure. Responsibilities include designing scalable automation solutions using Python, APIs, data pipelines, and workflow tools (e.g., JIRA, ServiceNow), while ensuring secure, resilient, and reliable network performance. The engineer interprets operational data, system outputs, and testing results to improve automation maturity and reduce manual intervention across the workflow lifecycle. Success is measured by measurable improvements in workflow completion time, system integration, documentation clarity, automation coverage, and overall service reliability.

Requirements

• Bachelor's Degree plus 2 years of related work experience OR combination of education and experience deemed equivalent (Required)
• Acceptable areas of study include Engineering, Computer Science (Preferred)
• 2-4 years Technical engineering experience (Preferred)
• AI & Automation Architecture Ability to design and implement automation solutions that incorporate AI as a practical operational capability. Includes understanding of machine learning fundamentals, prompt-assisted coding, automation frameworks, data pipeline requirements, and governance considerations.
• Workflow Automation & Systems Integration Experience improving end-to-end processes by linking intake, tracking, implementation, and closure systems through automation and APIs.
• Analytical & Problem Solving Ability to evaluate current-state processes, identify automation gaps, and design measurable improvements.
• Technical Expertise Demonstrated depth in scripting, automation, systems integration, or network engineering concepts.
• Communication Ability to clearly document technical processes, explain automation strategies, and collaborate effectively across engineering teams.
• Teamwork Ability and desire to work cooperatively within a long-standing engineering organization supporting critical network infrastructure.
• Customer Focus Understands the downstream customer impact of network changes and automation reliability.
• Adaptability & Initiative Comfortable working in evolving automation environments. Proactively identifies improvement opportunities and brings forward ideas rather than waiting for direction.
