Role you're checking

Network Operations Center Engineer

Technology

NOC (Network Operations Center) Engineers are the 24x7 eyes-on-glass operators who keep enterprise networks, ISP backbones, and managed-service clients running at or above contracted SLA. They monitor dashboards across MPLS circuits, BGP peering sessions, SD-WAN overlays, and cloud-connectivity links; triage and resolve L1/L2 incidents before they breach SLA windows; coordinate escalations to vendor NOCs (Airtel, Jio Business, Tata Communications) and field teams; and maintain the configuration and documentation hygiene that prevents repeat incidents. In India the role is most dense at large ISPs and carriers (Airtel Enterprise, Jio Business, Tata Communications, BSNL Enterprise), MSPs and IT services companies (TCS Network Services, HCL, Wipro Networks, Infosys BPO), and in-house NOC teams at BFSI, pharma, manufacturing, and government entities that run private WAN or co-locate in carrier-neutral DCs. The shift-rotation reality — nights, weekends, and on-call — is the defining constraint of the NOC career; the upside is deep, rapid skill acquisition in routing protocols, ISP operations, and fault-management tooling that is hard to get in daytime corporate IT roles.
