Core Integration Delivery Lead

Own the integration delivery roadmap for the 5G Core software workstream: maintain the master schedule, track milestones, and surface dependencies across internal engineering teams, back-end platform vendors, and third-party suppliers.

Coordinate across the core software, systems engineering, integration test, and BSS/OSS integration teams to align on interface readiness, integration sequencing, and release gate criteria.

Manage vendor and supplier relationships within the integration workstream — track contractual commitments, hold vendors to delivery schedules, and escalate when timelines or quality are at risk.

Maintain a live view of integration dependencies: identify critical path items, flag risks before they become delays, and own the action log that drives resolution.

Run structured integration planning cadences: weekly sync across teams, milestone readiness reviews, and go/no-go gates at each phase boundary.

Own integration status reporting to senior stakeholders — clear, concise, and actionable; surface what is on track, what is at risk, and what decisions are needed.

Track interface readiness across teams: ensure that API specifications, test harnesses, and acceptance criteria are in place before integration milestones are committed.

Work with the systems engineering and test teams to maintain traceability between requirements, interface specifications, and integration test coverage.

Drive post-milestone retrospectives; capture lessons learned and feed them into the next phase delivery plan.
