Job Description


? Enterprise Network Engineering ? Design, implement, and support highly available network infrastructure across on-prem data centers, private cloud, AWS, and Azure. Engineer resilient Layer 2/Layer 3 architectures including routing, switching, BGP, OSPF, VXLAN/EVPN, and SDN technologies. Support enterprise resiliency and disaster recovery. ? Infrastructure Automation ? Build IaC solutions using Terraform; develop reusable modules and standardized deployment patterns. Automate network provisioning and configuration management. Integrate automation into Git-based CI/CD pipelines. Eliminate manual networking activities through automation-first engineering. ? Scripting & Automation ? Develop automation using Python, PowerShell, Bash, and REST APIs to handle provisioning, validation, compliance verification, drift detection, operational reporting, and health monitoring. ? Network Isolation & Segmentation ? Lead enterprise initiatives for network isolation, secure enclaves, air-gapped environments, Isolated Recovery Environments (IRE), secure management networks, and recovery architectures. Design secure separation between production, non-production, recovery, cyber recovery, and management networks. ? Micro-Segmentation ? Design and implement enterprise micro-segmentation using VMware NSX, Illumio, Cisco Secure Workload, cloud-native security groups, Azure NSGs, AWS Security Groups, and Network ACLs. Manage East-West traffic control, Zero Trust architectures, least-privilege access, dynamic policy enforcement, and application dependency mapping. ? Cloud Networking ? Engineer networking solutions across AWS (VPCs, Transit Gateway, Direct Connect, Route Tables, PrivateLink, Network Firewall) and Azure (VNets, ExpressRoute, Virtual WAN, Azure Firewall, NSGs, Application Gateway, Load Balancer). ? Security Engineering ?
