• Helping project teams fold names and addresses of configuration items into the central repositories
• Automating configuration data for partner and mission-network affiliates
• Automating how network telemetry is collected and ingested

• At least three years as a network technician, or in a DDI or IP address management role
• Familiarity with network automation or another scripting or coding language
• Confident subnetting in both IPv4 and IPv6
• Practical DNS, IP and routing protocols - OSPF, RIP, IS-IS, BGP and the rest
• Evaluating and processing change requests
• Auditing device configurations against the registered baseline

Nice to have

• An industry certification such as CCNA DevNet or JNCIA, or the experience to match
• Writing documentation and manuals for a technical readership

• Work in an international environment with both military and civilian colleagues
