Position Overview

We are seeking a highly experienced Senior Cloud Network & Security Engineer to help design, build, and evolve network infrastructure across a large-scale, enterprise technology environment. This individual will play a key technical role in supporting cloud transformation initiatives, with a particular emphasis on Azure networking, network security, routing, and automation.

The ideal candidate brings deep traditional networking expertise combined with significant hands-on experience designing modern cloud and hybrid network environments. This is a senior-level engineering position that will also provide technical leadership, influence architectural decisions, and mentor other engineers.

Key Responsibilities

• Architect, engineer, and implement network solutions across Azure, on-premises, and hybrid cloud environments.
• Design scalable and secure cloud networking architectures that support enterprise applications, infrastructure, and end users.
• Engineer and optimize routing solutions utilizing technologies and protocols such as BGP, OSPF, MP-BGP, VXLAN, EVPN, and Geneve.
• Develop and support network security capabilities including firewalls, VPN, proxies, network access controls, segmentation, and related security technologies.
• Support application delivery technologies including load balancing, content delivery, and traffic management solutions.
• Help automate network provisioning, configuration, deployment, and operational processes across multi-cloud environments.
• Serve as a senior technical resource for complex networking and network security challenges.
• Evaluate emerging technologies and recommend improvements to the organization's networking and security capabilities.
• Participate in proofs of concept, lab testing, technical evaluations, and implementation of new technologies.
• Partner with infrastructure, cloud, security, application, and architecture teams to gather requirements and develop appropriate technical solutions.
• Participate throughout the engineering lifecycle, including requirements analysis, architecture, design, implementation, testing, troubleshooting, and production deployment.
• Work with technology vendors and service providers to evaluate solutions supporting enterprise networking strategies.
• Create and maintain architecture diagrams, engineering standards, implementation documentation, and operational procedures.
• Mentor engineers and help establish and promote technical standards and engineering best practices.

Required Qualifications

• 10+ years of experience in enterprise networking and/or network security engineering, including significant architecture and design responsibilities.
• Hands-on experience designing and implementing networking solutions within Azure.
• Strong understanding of networking within large, complex enterprise environments.
• Advanced knowledge of routing technologies and protocols, including BGP and OSPF.
• Experience with technologies such as MP-BGP, VXLAN, EVPN, and network overlays/encapsulation.
• Strong knowledge of network security technologies, including firewalls, VPNs, proxies, NAC, and network segmentation.
• Experience with virtual networking, data center networking, and hybrid cloud connectivity.
• Familiarity with application delivery technologies such as load balancers and CDNs.
• Experience working across multi-vendor network environments.
• Strong understanding of network architecture, security, monitoring, troubleshooting, and performance optimization.
• Experience engineering solutions within environments containing both modern platforms and legacy infrastructure.
• Ability to troubleshoot complex network issues using packet analysis, flow data, monitoring platforms, and other diagnostic tools.
• Strong documentation and communication skills with the ability to work effectively across technical and business teams.
• Demonstrated ability to provide technical leadership and influence architecture and engineering decisions.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with network and infrastructure automation using Ansible and/or Python.
• Experience designing or implementing network segmentation strategies.
• Exposure to additional cloud platforms such as Google Cloud Platform (GCP) or Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).
• Experience with packet capture, network telemetry, and flow-monitoring technologies.
• Advanced networking, cloud, or security certifications such as Cisco, Arista, CISSP, or comparable industry credentials.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Technology, or a related technical discipline.

Ideal Candidate

The successful candidate will combine deep hands-on networking expertise with a modern cloud engineering mindset. They should be comfortable working in a large enterprise environment, solving complex technical problems, and navigating major infrastructure transformations.

This role is particularly well suited for an engineer who has progressed beyond traditional data center networking and has significant experience applying those fundamentals to Azure cloud networking, network security, and automation.
