About the Role

What You'll Do

Design and advance enterprise network architectures across data centers, campuses, and global backbone infrastructures using scalable, future-ready principles. Lead the development of multi-cloud networking strategies across AWS, Azure, and GCP, ensuring seamless connectivity, routing efficiency, and strong security posture.

Own the architecture of EVPN/VXLAN fabrics, SR-MPLS and SRv6 deployments, and high-speed spine-leaf topologies. Define and implement Zero Trust segmentation using identity-driven policies and micro-segmentation techniques. Build and maintain resilient edge networking solutions, including SD-WAN, SASE frameworks, and secure remote access platforms.

Champion network automation through Terraform, Ansible, Python, and CI/CD integration. Introduce intent-based networking models, configuration validation systems, and digital twin environments to improve reliability and operational speed. Partner closely with cloud, security, and platform teams to establish architectural standards and governance practices.

Develop comprehensive telemetry and observability solutions using gNMI, gRPC, NetFlow, IPFIX, and cloud-native monitoring tools. Lead root cause analysis, capacity planning, and lifecycle management across distributed, hybrid environments.

Requirements

  • 8–12 years of direct experience designing and managing large-scale enterprise or service provider networks

  • Familiarity with SASE, SD-WAN, cloud firewalls, WAF, and DDoS protection systems
  • Understanding of Kubernetes networking (Cilium, Calico, AWS CNI) and service mesh implementations like Istio
  • Excellent communication, documentation, and leadership abilities across technical teams

Preferred Qualifications

  • Active or pursued CCIE, JNCIE, or Arista ACE-L3 certification
  • AWS Advanced Networking Specialty or equivalent cloud networking credential
  • Experience with network digital twins, AIOps, or automation driven by telemetry
