Quick answer: NTT Off Campus Drive 2026 is open for four entry-level L1 seats at NTT DATA: MS Engineer L1 in Bangalore (R119561), MS Service Engineer L1 in Mumbai (R124042), Security Managed Services Engineer L1 in Mumbai (R-121888) and MS Engineer – Security in Chennai (R-120063).

Job Summary
NTT Off Campus Drive 2026 – full job details
NTT DATA, the IT services company of Japan’s NTT group, is filling four first-line engineering seats under the NTT Off Campus Drive 2026. All four sit in its managed services business, where L1 engineers keep client networks, firewalls and data-centre gear running and hand tougher problems to L2 teams.
Two openings are networking L1 roles (Bangalore R119561 and Mumbai R124042). The other two lean towards security: a Security Managed Services Engineer L1 in Mumbai (R-121888) and an MS Engineer – Security seat in Chennai (R-120063). The security requisitions were first listed in late 2024 and are still taking applications, so treat them as rolling pools rather than a one-day drive.
Check the Chennai role: it carries a Security title, but most of the job description is network operations work – routing, switching, firewalls and VPN. Expect a NOC-style L1 job.
CCNA expectations differ: Chennai lists CCNA or an equivalent certification under qualifications, while the Mumbai Security L1 only calls CCNA good to have. Without CCNA, the Mumbai seat is the more realistic target.
What you will do in the NTT Off Campus Drive 2026 role
Daily work across the four NTT Off Campus Drive 2026 seats is similar – ticket-driven first-line support with clear escalation paths:
- Watch client infrastructure and raise faults before users notice them
- Take standard, low-complexity incidents and service requests, find the likely cause, then fix or escalate within SLA
- Carry out approved changes such as patching and configuration updates
- Keep client firewall policies and VPN access healthy (security seats)
- Write a clean shift handover and update knowledge articles
NTT DATA Security Engineer L1 roles in Mumbai and Chennai
Within the NTT Off Campus Drive 2026, the Mumbai Security L1 seat at ONE BKC centres on client firewall infrastructure: monitoring, first-line incident handling with root-cause notes, service requests, patching and config changes, and shift handover. NTT DATA wants working knowledge of ITIL processes and calls CCNA good to have.
The Chennai seat at The Oval reads like a networking L1 job with a security label. The JD names Palo Alto, Fortinet and Juniper firewalls, Pulse Secure VPN, Cisco Nexus, ASR, ISR, ISE and Meraki gear, BGP, OSPF and EIGRP routing, plus NAT, MPLS and DIA links.
