Hi Rana — I’ve built scalable systems at Meta/Tesla/MSFT. What should I highlight to stand out for Nokia’s SWE roles?

    Hello,


    That's impressive! Here's what I'd highlight for Nokia SWE roles:

    • Technical expertise - Your SW development experience, code writing, and experience with testing (like unit tests) and code reviews, are valuable. Nokia values good development practices.
    • Cross-team collaboration - We work across multiple components and teams. Any examples of coordinating between different systems or teams would be valuable.
    • Problem-solving skills - Telecom systems are complex with many interdependencies, similar to the large-scale systems you've worked on.


    Don't worry too much about not knowing telecom specifics (but if you do, I'm sure it's a plus!) - Nokia provides onboarding training. Focus on showing your strong engineering foundation and willingness to learn the domain.


    Good luck! Would love to hear how it goes - feel free to ping me and Rana once you join #teamNokia!


    Best regards,

    Casey
