This role sits at the center of a global enterprise network, covering design, implementation, and escalation support across multiple sites. It's a strong fit for someone who wants ownership and technical depth rather than a narrow lane on a large team.
What You'll Do
- Install, configure, and administer a global enterprise network and data center environment
- Own design and implementation work across LAN, WLAN, WAN, and SD-WAN
- Provide 2nd and 3rd line support for complex incidents and changes

- Partner with IT leadership and a global network competence lead
- Travel up to 25% as needed
What We're Looking For
- Significant hands-on experience in a Cisco infrastructure environment
- Expertise across DNS, LAN, WAN, WLAN, VPN, TLS, SD-WAN, and subnetting
- Experience with enterprise and global network architectures and topologies
- Data center experience, both wired and wireless
- Cisco DNA and Cisco ISE experience is a plus
- Exposure to Microsoft 365, Azure, SQL, VMware, servers, and VoIP is a plus
- CCNA or higher preferred
- Technical degree, bachelor's, or equivalent hands-on experience
- Humble, collaborative approach. This is a lean team where everyone contributes
- Comfortable with hands-on work, including occasional lifting up to 50 lbs
Why You'll Like It
- Real ownership of a global network rather than a narrow slice of one
- Design and build work, not just maintenance
- Direct visibility with IT leadership on a small team
- A path to a permanent role through contract-to-hire
- Strong benefits package including 401k match and annual bonus
