Innovative Technology company is seeking a Senior Network Delivery Engineer who thrives in hands-on environments — someone equally comfortable in a data center pulling cable and racking gear as they are on a terminal hunting down a stubborn network fault. This role is specifically scoped to support one specific client's contract, focused on enterprise wired and wireless network integration, physical deployment, and advanced troubleshooting. You will be the technical owner on-site, executing complex network buildouts and ensuring every layer of the stack performs to spec.
 

Key Responsibilities

 
Physical Deployment & Rack/Stack
Lead end-to-end physical installations: rack and stack of switches, firewalls, APs, and other network devices; cable management; labeling; and structured cabling validation. Own the network stack from day one of a deployment through sign-off.

 
Network Design & Implementation
Participate in the design, planning, and implementation of LAN and WLAN infrastructure. Translate network designs into precise, production-ready configurations across wired and wireless environments.

 
Wireless Network Delivery
Deploy, configure, and validate enterprise Wi-Fi infrastructure — including site surveys, AP placement, RF tuning, and post-deployment validation. Experience with planning tools such as Ekahau and Hamina a strong plus.

 
Advanced Troubleshooting
Own the resolution of complex network issues across Layer 1 through Layer 7 — physical connectivity, switching, and wireless. You're the person others escalate to when the issue is hard.

 
Performance Monitoring & Optimization
Monitor network performance, identify bottlenecks, and implement solutions to optimize throughput, latency, and availability across client environments.

 
Project Lead & Stakeholder Communication
Act as the on-site technical lead for network deployments. Deliver timely, accurate status updates to internal and client stakeholders. Manage scope, track milestones, and surface risks early.

 
Documentation
Produce thorough as-built documentation, network diagrams, configuration records, and post-deployment reports. Leave every engagement with a clean, complete set of documentation.

 
Mentorship
Guide and develop Tier 1 and Tier 2 technicians in the field, sharing techniques and building team capability across deployments.

 
Security Fundamentals
Apply baseline network security practices — firewall rules, VLAN segmentation, access control — as part of standard deployment and configuration work. This role is not security-primary, but sound security hygiene is expected.

 
Qualifications
 
Required
 

- Minimum 5 years of hands-on experience configuring and deploying networking hardware from vendors such as Cisco, Juniper, Aruba, Ruckus, Palo Alto, or Meraki

- At least 3 years leading physical network deployments — including rack/stack, structured cabling, and on-site installation in enterprise or campus environments

- Deep proficiency in wired networking: VLANs, STP/RSTP, LACP, routing protocols (OSPF, BGP), QoS, and inter-VLAN routing

- Strong wireless expertise: RF planning, AP deployment, surveying, controller-based and cloud-managed WLAN architecture

- Proven ability to troubleshoot complex network issues independently across all OSI layers

- Clear, professional communication with both technical peers and non-technical client stakeholders

- Ability to travel within the Bay Area regularly and across the US as needed for project work

 
Desired
 

- Bachelor's degree in Networking, Computer Science, or a related field

- Certifications such as CCNP, CWNA/CWSP, or similar vendor credentials

- Proficiency in Python or PowerShell for network automation and configuration scripting

- Experience with network monitoring and management platforms (SolarWinds, PRTG, Meraki Dashboard, Ruckus One, etc.)

- Prior experience in an MSP or MSSP environment delivering multi-site network projects
