We are seeking an Optical Systems Software Architect to define the software architecture and control strategy for next-generation DWDM optical transport this role you will translate complex photonic system behavior into scalable software-driven architectures. You will work across systems software and hardware teams to ensure robust high-performance control of optical line systems in carrier-grade networks.
What youll do
- Define software architecture for Layer 0 control and management of optical transport systems (DWDM ROADMs line systems)
- Translate optical system requirements into software specifications control models and algorithms
- Define system behavior for optical power control wavelength stability and signal integrity
- Architect software-driven control loops for managing photonic components (lasers VOAs amplifiers modulators)
- Collaborate with optical design teams to model and abstract physical-layer behavior into software systems
- Work closely with embedded/software teams to guide implementation and ensure architectural alignment
- Define interfaces for system control and observability (telemetry alarms performance monitoring)
- Contribute to fault performance and configuration management at Layer 0
- Support definition of protection and restoration strategies from a system behavior perspective
- Evaluate trade-offs between performance scalability cost and operational complexity
- Drive alignment with industry standards (ITU-T OpenROADM OpenConfig GMPLS)
