Technical Routing Analyst (Product Operations)

The Technical Routing & Quality team is focused on three key objectives: reducing technical debt, automating core business processes, and investing in growth areas such as Network APIs, RCS, and US direct connectivity. Operating through a follow-the-sun model, the team works closely with Carrier Partnerships, Product, and Engineering to deliver best-in-class routing services. Every OTP SMS, enterprise marketing message, and API-triggered communication relies on routing groups owned and maintained by this team. As a Technical Routing Analyst, you will be responsible for the day-to-day quality and cost performance of global SMS and voice routing, ensuring traffic is delivered reliably and efficiently while optimising margins.
