This is a genuinely hands-on opportunity spanning enterprise networking, security, cloud and data-centre infrastructure. You'll have exposure to Cisco ACI, Fortinet and Azure while working closely with Cyber Security, infrastructure specialists and project teams.
The role combines BAU engineering and complex troubleshooting with project delivery and continuous improvement, making it particularly suited to an engineer who wants technical breadth without moving away from hands-on networking.

- Configure and manage Fortinet network-security technologies.
- Support Azure networking including VNets, NSGs and VPN gateways.
- Troubleshoot complex network incidents as a technical escalation point.
- Support Firewalls, VPN, IDS/IPS, NAC and network segmentation.
- Work alongside Cyber Security on vulnerabilities and security improvements.
- Monitor and improve network availability, performance and resilience.
- Deliver network changes and projects alongside internal teams and external partners.
- Identify opportunities for network automation and operational improvement.
What You'll Bring:
- Strong Cisco routing and switching experience.
- Hands-on Cisco ACI experience.
- Strong knowledge of Fortinet/FortiGate technologies.
- Good knowledge of BGP, TCP/IP, VLANs, STP, DNS, DHCP and VPN.
- Hands-on Firewall and network-security experience.
- Exposure to Azure networking such as VNets, NSGs and VPN gateways.
- Strong troubleshooting skills in complex enterprise environments.
- Confidence working with technical stakeholders and third-party suppliers.
Why You Should Apply:
- Broad exposure across networking, cloud and cyber security.
- Hands-on ownership of technically interesting infrastructure.
- Opportunity to work with Cisco ACI, Fortinet and Azure.
- Mix of operational engineering and project/change work.
- Opportunity to influence network reliability, security and automation.
