C2 - OSS consultant - Solution Architect – Blue Planet MDSO Orchestration
Location – USA – Remote with 20% travel to client

Role Overview
We are seeking a Solution Architect to lead the design and implementation of Blue Planet MDSO-based orchestration solutions within a Tier 1 telecommunications environment. This role is responsible for defining the target-state service orchestration architecture, aligning business and product models to executable service models, and ensuring scalable, maintainable integration across OSS/BSS systems.
The ideal candidate brings deep expertise in model-driven orchestration, including YANG-based service modeling, service decomposition (CFS/RFS), and API-driven integration architectures. This individual will act as the technical authority across modeling, orchestration, and integration, ensuring alignment between current-state systems and the target-state architecture.

Key Responsibilities
Architecture & Solution Design
  • Define end-to-end Blue Planet MDSO orchestration architecture across fulfillment and service lifecycle domains
  • Translate business and product requirements into service models, orchestration workflows, and integration patterns
  • Establish architectural standards for model-driven orchestration, service decomposition, and lifecycle management
  • Ensure alignment between target-state architecture and existing OSS/BSS systems
Service Modeling & Decomposition Strategy
  • Define and govern YANG-based service and resource models
  • Lead service decomposition strategy across:
    • Customer-Facing Services (CFS)
    • Resource-Facing Services (RFS)
  • Map product models and commercial constructs to executable service definitions
  • Establish reusable modeling patterns and standards for scalability
Orchestration & Workflow Architecture
  • Define orchestration design patterns using MDSO workflows and JavaScript-based logic
  • Establish standards for:
    • Service decomposition logic
    • Conditional workflow execution
    • Data transformation and orchestration control flows
  • Ensure orchestration design supports automation, scalability, and operational efficiency
Integration Architecture
  • Define API-driven integration strategy across OSS/BSS systems using REST/JSON and TMF APIs
  • Align orchestration with integration layers including middleware and API gateways
  • Ensure clean separation between orchestration logic and external system dependencies
  • Support integration with:
    • Inventory and assurance platforms
    • Network management systems
    • ITSM platforms
Cross-Functional Leadership
  • Act as the primary technical interface across:
    • Program leadership and stakeholders
    • Engineering and development teams
    • Integration and API teams
    • Vendor and partner organizations
  • Provide architectural guidance and oversight across multiple concurrent workstreams
Governance & Standards
  • Establish and enforce architectural governance, design reviews, and standards
  • Define modeling, orchestration, and integration best practices
  • Ensure consistency across service models, workflows, and APIs
  • Support documentation of architecture, design decisions, and standards
Delivery & Transformation Support
  • Support transition from legacy fulfillment and orchestration models to modern, API-driven architectures
  • Guide development teams in implementing architecture-aligned solutions
  • Identify risks, gaps, and optimization opportunities across the solution landscape
  • Ensure architecture supports long-term scalability and operational resilience

Required Qualifications
  • 10+ years of experience in telecommunications architecture, OSS/BSS, or network systems
  • Proven experience designing service orchestration solutions using Blue Planet MDSO
  • Deep expertise in:
    • YANG-based service modeling
    • Service decomposition (CFS/RFS)
    • Model-driven orchestration architectures
  • Strong understanding of:
    • OSS/BSS systems and service lifecycle management
    • API-driven integration and REST architectures
  • Experience operating within Tier 1 service provider environments

Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience with additional Blue Planet components:
    • BPI (Business Process Integration)
    • UAA (User Access and Administration)
  • Familiarity with TM Forum frameworks and APIs (e.g., TMF 633, 638, 641, 688)
  • Experience with API-led integration approaches (e.g., MuleSoft or similar)
  • Exposure to network domains including WAN, SD-WAN, and enterprise services
  • Experience with ITSM platforms and operational integration patterns

Leadership Profile
  • Strong architectural leader with the ability to define and enforce standards
  • Operates effectively in complex, multi-team, and multi-vendor environments
  • Able to translate business strategy into executable technical architecture
  • Drives alignment across competing priorities and evolving requirements
  • Balances strategic vision with practical implementation guidance

Success Measures
  • Delivery of a scalable, standardized MDSO orchestration architecture aligned to business objectives
  • Successful alignment of product models to service models and orchestration workflows
  • Seamless integration across OSS/BSS systems with minimal technical debt
  • Adoption of consistent modeling and orchestration standards across teams
  • Enablement of automation and operational efficiency through effective architecture design
