Senior Network Engineer

 

Description:

We're looking for a Senior Network Engineer to own and evolve our enterprise network across multi-site and cloud environments. You'll be a key technical voice shaping infrastructure strategy, driving security posture through zero-trust principles, and ensuring high availability for business-critical systems — all while working remotely on a collaborative, senior-level team.

Key Responsibilities

Design & Architecture

  • Architect scalable, resilient network solutions including routing/switching, SD-WAN, firewalls, VPN, QoS, and zero-trust segmentation.
  • Define requirements, evaluate technologies, and lead infrastructure changes from design through implementation.
  • Develop and maintain business continuity and disaster recovery plans for all network components.

Operations & Maintenance

  • Perform proactive maintenance — patching, upgrades, tuning, and health monitoring across the networking estate.
  • Manage vulnerability findings and vendor security advisories for network equipment and systems.
  • Maintain accurate network documentation, configuration baselines, and topology diagrams.
  • Own and resolve network-related incidents and service requests, driving issues to resolution.

Collaboration & Strategy

  • Partner with security, infrastructure, and application teams to support firm-wide initiatives.
  • Evaluate emerging technologies and translate their impact into actionable recommendations.
  • Serve as a technical mentor and backup resource across the Network Engineering team.
  • Communicate clearly with technical and non-technical stakeholders at all levels.

Qualifications

  • 10+ years of hands-on network engineering experience across multi-site enterprise environments
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field — or equivalent professional experience.
  • Palo Alto Firewalls - Production deployment, policy management, and troubleshooting of Palo Alto NGFW (Panorama experience a strong plus).
  • Cisco ACI - Hands-on experience with Nexus 9300/9000 series in ACI mode — fabric design, EPG/contract configuration, and troubleshooting.
  • Proven ability to architect, implement, and troubleshoot complex, multi-vendor network infrastructure.
  • Strong documentation habits — you leave networks better documented than you found them.
  • Ability to translate ambiguous business requirements into clear, implementable technical designs.
