You will be collaborating with an international team in charge of Automatizing Transmission Network for Orange affiliates with technoilogies such as Microwave, Optical, WDM and IP Technologies

About the Team:

Microwave technology enables wireless point-to-point transmission between two sites, offering optimized costs and time-to-market. In Orange's mobile networks, 4 out of 5 sites are served with at least microwave links.

The Microwave Department consists of 6 team members.

In addition, there are activities related to anticipation and R&D, with active participation in international standardization organizations and spectrum regulation (obtaining licenses from national regulators), as well as research projects on AI.

For Orange subsidiaries, we handle link design, define architectural evolution, and establish engineering rules to optimize investments. We also integrate activities from the Skill Center, including validation, sourcing, and deployment follow-up.

Our industrial suppliers include Aviat, Ericsson, Huawei, Nokia, and ZTE.

We closely monitor carbon impacts and seek to optimize energy consumption through more efficient hardware and activation of software functionalities.

Finally, the automation leader drives microwave network automation through the Andiamo program (Automation & Data Integration with AI enablers for Microwave, IP, and Optical networks).

Development: Lead automation activities within the Andiamo program, translating needs into technical components, supporting deployment, and ensuring standards compliance.
