  • Support and optimize secure access technologies, including VPN, SASE/SSE, SD-WAN, and Zero Trust networking architectures.
  • Collaborate with Information Security teams to implement network security controls, segmentation strategies, firewall policies, and compliance requirements.
  • Evaluate network technologies and provide technical recommendations aligned with established business, architecture, and technology requirements.
  • Perform capacity planning, performance analysis, and infrastructure scalability assessments; recommend improvements based on findings.
  • Serve as a technical resource and mentor to less experienced network engineers, promoting knowledge sharing and engineering best practices.
  • Develop and support automation solutions using scripting and infrastructure-as-code methodologies to improve network operations.
  • Participate in architecture reviews, change management processes, technical governance activities, and implementation planning.
  • Work with vendors, managed service providers, and technology partners to support operational needs and assigned initiatives.
  • Support cloud networking architectures across Azure, AWS, and hybrid environment deployments.
  • Participate in on-call support and major incident response activities as required.


What you bring
  • Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or equivalent experience.
  • 7+ years of progressive experience in network engineering, network operations, network architecture, or infrastructure engineering roles.
  • Strong knowledge and hands-on experience with enterprise routing and switching technologies.
  • Strong experience with Cisco networking platforms including Catalyst, Nexus, and related management tools.
  • Experience supporting enterprise firewall and security solutions, preferably Palo Alto Networks.
  • Strong experience designing, implementing, maintaining, and troubleshooting protocols, including BGP and OSPF, along with knowledge of EIGRP, MPLS, SD-WAN, DNS, NTP, DHCP, IPAM, and network segmentation principles.
