A NOC engineer is someone who monitors the operation and performance of a large IT network. They monitor and manage a technology’s system performance and make sure that the network is operating as it should, noting and reporting unusual events, troubleshooting problems and incidents, communicating with technicians or other responsible parties to fix issues, and tracking repairs to completion.
The core duties of a NOC engineer involve ensuring that the network is kept in good operating order. They’re also called upon to build out and deploy physical IT networks. 

Other key duties include reviewing log reports and alerts, monitoring server backups, and making sure that disaster recovery protocols are followed. NOC engineers oversee email hosting, managing internal and external tickets, and configuring hardware. Most NOCs hire multiple engineers with different levels of experience. Entry-level NOC engineers are typically responsible for straightforward and easily accomplished duties as they gain experience. In contrast, senior NOC engineers oversee more complex or sensitive operations and may also take on managerial duties. NOC engineers work in teams to keep watch over a network. They’re assigned levels of responsibility, with a Level 1 NOC engineer considered entry level and Level 3 and above considered experienced. Each level of responsibility has duties that include responding to senior staff and monitoring the work of junior engineers. The overall duty of a NOC engineer is to make sure that the core network is stable at all times.
