This person will function as a strategic Network Architect responsible for evaluating Southland's current network footprint, identifying improvement opportunities, and recommending technologies that align with the company's long-term roadmap. They will own vendor, product, and solution selection efforts, performing technical evaluations, proof of concepts, and cost-benefit analyses to determine the best technologies for the organization. The role will also support ongoing modernization initiatives including multi-cloud connectivity, wireless architecture, segmentation, security enhancements, and acquisition integration planning. On a daily basis, they'll partner with network operations, cybersecurity, cloud, and infrastructure teams to build deployment roadmaps, oversee implementations, and ensure new technologies are successfully adopted. They'll remain involved throughout the entire lifecycle-from evaluation and architecture through deployment and operational handoff-while continuously reviewing emerging technologies and vendor roadmaps to keep the environment aligned with future business needs. This is a remote role but travel will be required as needed to support offices, projects, and strategic initiatives. ## Related Videos - [Architectures that we can use with .NET](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/935-architectures-that-we-can-use-with-net) - [How Cisco embraced a DevOps culture within its network engineering team](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/99-how-cisco-embraced-a-devops-culture-within-its-network-engineering-team) - [The Open-source Java SDK for Multi-Cloud Development - Sandeep Pal](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2113-the-open-source-java-sdk-for-multi-cloud-development-sandeep-pal) - [Developer Tools for Microsoft Azure](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/450-developer-tools-for-microsoft-azure) - [Azure-Well Architected Framework - designing mission critical workloads in practice](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1529-azure-well-architected-framework-designing-mission-critical-workloads-in-practice) - [Winning the Hybrid Cloud](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/432-winning-the-hybrid-cloud) ## Related Articles - [What Are The Top Skills Required For Azure Developers?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/77-what-are-the-top-skills-required-for-azure-developers) - [What Makes WeAreDevelopers World Congress Different From Every Other Tech Event?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/701-what-makes-wearedevelopers-world-congress-different-from-every-other-tech-event) - [Top Must-Visit Developer Conferences in the US in 2026](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/679-top-must-visit-developer-conferences-in-the-us-in-2026) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [Everything a Developer Needs to Know About MCP with Neo4j](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/604-everything-a-developer-needs-to-know-about-mcp-with-neo4j)
