A day in the life
An NDE is responsible for ensuring all network fabrics and devices are operating as expected. An NDE will utilise their networking skills along with available tools and services to troubleshoot and resolve any issues that have not been remediated through automation and to identify the root cause. They are expected to invent, refine and develop new automation and tools to reduce manual operations and fulfil the requirements of the business and customers.
