## Description

A rapidly growing healthcare organization is expanding its clinic and site footprint across Florida and scaling the underlying network to support that growth. We are seeking a senior-level, Cisco-centric Network Architect/Engineer to define a standard "clinic network model" and then replicate that blueprint as new locations come online. This person will also support major modernization initiatives including a campus refresh, hospital updates, a Tampa data center update, and an upcoming effort expected to begin in the next few months involving a move/build from the Atlanta data center to Nashville. The environment has had years of patchwork changes, and this role will help drive discovery, cleanup, and standardization so upgrades stop surfacing hidden issues.

What you'll do:

 * Lead architecture and hands-on engineering across multiple network initiatives (roughly engineering 70% / architecture 30%).
 * Perform deep network discovery to understand the current-state environment, identify gaps and nonstandard "band-aid" fixes, and drive standardization across clinics, campus, and data centers.
 * Design repeatable network patterns for clinics/sites and execute the implementation/configuration work to deploy them as new sites open.
 * Troubleshoot complex issues and support upgrades/refresh work across campus, hospital, and data center environments.
 * Build, maintain, and update accurate network diagrams and documentation.
 * Partner with cross-functional teams to improve coordination, guide technical decisions, and provide professional pushback when proposed approaches aren't the right solution.
 * Communicate recommendations to senior leadership in clear language.
