Network Engineer - DDI - DNS - IPAM Engineer

We are seeking a highly skilled DDI Engineer to join our Foundational Services organization. This role will focus on designing, engineering, and enhancing enterprise-scale DNS, DHCP, and IP Address Management (DDI) solutions across hybrid environments, including on-premises infrastructure and cloud platforms such as AWS Route 53 and Azure DNS.

The ideal candidate will have a strong engineering and architecture background with experience designing and implementing large-scale network services. This is not a traditional support role; we are looking for someone who can provide technical vision, define future-state architecture, drive automation, and help shape the long-term strategy for DDI services., * Design, engineer, and enhance enterprise DDI solutions supporting hybrid environments across on-premises infrastructure and cloud platforms.

• Develop and maintain DNS/DHCP/IPAM architectures using technologies such as Infoblox, BlueCat, AWS Route 53, and Azure DNS.
• Define future-state DDI vision, architecture standards, and technology roadmaps.
• Automate DDI workflows using tools and technologies such as Python, Ansible, APIs, and CI/CD pipelines.
• Implement automation solutions for provisioning, zone management, synchronization, compliance validation, and operational efficiency.
• Partner with Network, Cloud, Security, and Infrastructure teams to design scalable and resilient solutions.
