RDK-B Networking Engineer specializing in RDK-B automation, diagnostics, and broadband firmware reliability.
What I'm looking for
I’m an RDK-B Networking Engineer with 3+ years building, debugging, and automating diagnostics for broadband gateway firmware in large-scale EU ISP deployments. I work deeply across the RDK-B stack and CCSP architecture, using TR-181/TR-069 and WebPA remote management frameworks alongside a full TCP/IP networking stack (DHCP, DNS, NAT, IPv4/IPv6).
I’ve consistently resolved production-critical defects in Embedded Linux environments by combining GDB, Wireshark, tcpdump, and Root Cause Analysis. In RDK-B based broadband gateway firmware, I debugged and fixed Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) connectivity issues across 3+ EU ISP deployments serving 500K+ endpoints, reducing MTTR by 40% through automated diagnostic tooling.
I also use cross-layer evidence to unblock high-stakes milestones fast—isolating root cause of mesh networking stack instability in CPE gateways and delivering fix specifications to firmware vendors within 48 hours. My approach includes Python/Shell automation that classifies failure patterns from raw kernel logs and packet captures, replacing manual triage across LAN/WAN deployments and preventing post-release regressions (zero critical defects in a 90-day post-launch window).
Strong C/C++ systems foundations and embedded build experience (Yocto/OpenWRT, Linux kernel internals, device drivers, BSP, and process/IPC concepts) keep my debugging grounded in real platform behavior. I thrive in cross-functional, cross-vendor environments—designing validation gates, authoring 15+ technical runbooks, and driving reliability improvements under production pressure.

RDK-B Networking Engineer
Deutsche Telekom Digital Labs
Apr 2025 - Present (1 year 2 months)
Debugged and resolved Wi‑Fi 6 (802.11ax) connectivity defects in RDK‑B gateway firmware across 3+ EU ISP deployments, reducing MTTR by 40%. Isolated mesh networking instability to unblock a $2.1M NATCO production milestone and built Python/Shell diagnostic automation to automate failure classification.
Networking & Production Engineer
T-Systems ICT India Pvt. Ltd.
Jun 2023 - Apr 2025 (1 year 10 months)
Closed 100% of Class 1/2 blocker defects within SLA for TCP/IP, DHCP, PPPoE, and IPv4/IPv6 stacks, supporting NATCO production-readiness sign-off for 2 carrier gateway deployments. Reduced repeat defects by 25% with log-parsing automation and prevented a 72-hour service outage for 120K+ subscribers via packet-level RCA and cross-vendor coordination.
