## About the Role

* Education: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Network Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a related technical discipline and 12-15 years of prior relevant experience, or equivalent additional experience in lieu of degree.\n
 * Network Architecture Experience: Extensive experience designing and operating enterprise-scale network architectures, including routing, switching, firewalls, DNS, load balancing, VPNs, private connectivity, and network segmentation.\n
 * Multi-Cloud Experience: Demonstrated experience designing cloud network architectures in multiple CSPs, with strong knowledge of at least two of the following: AWS, Azure, GCP, or OCI, and the ability to architect common solutions across heterogeneous cloud environments.\n
 * Cloud Networking: Advanced knowledge of cloud networking concepts including VPC/VNet architectures, transit networking, peering, private endpoints, cloud-native firewalls, NAT, load balancing, DNS, and private connectivity services.\n
 * Routing: Advanced knowledge of TCP/IP and enterprise routing technologies, including BGP, route propagation, route filtering, CIDR planning, and IP address management.\n
 * Network Security: Strong understanding of network security architecture, Zero Trust principles, network segmentation, firewalls, security groups, access control policies, encryption, and traffic inspection.\n
 * Hybrid Connectivity: Experience designing secure hybrid cloud connectivity using technologies such as AWS Direct Connect, Azure ExpressRoute, Google Cloud Interconnect, OCI FastConnect, and IPsec VPNs.\n
 * Automation & IaC: Experience implementing network infrastructure through Infrastructure as Code, preferably using Terraform, Ansible, GitLab CI/CD, and Git-based configuration management practices.\n
 * High Availability: Experience designing resilient network architectures across multiple availability zones, regions, and connectivity paths with clearly defined failure and recovery strategies.\n
 * DoD Environments: Experience designing or operating network architectures within DoD, federal, or other highly regulated environments, including familiarity with RMF, STIGs, NIST security controls, and secure enclave architectures.\n
 * Technical Communication: Ability to translate complex network architectures and technical tradeoffs into clear recommendations for engineering teams, cybersecurity stakeholders, program leadership, and Government customers.\n
 * Security Clearance: Ability to obtain and maintain a DoD Secret security clearance.\n, * Advanced cloud networking certifications such as AWS Certified Advanced Networking - Specialty, Microsoft Certified: Azure Network Engineer Associate, Google Cloud networking certifications, or equivalent OCI certifications.\n
 * Professional networking certifications such as CCNP, CCIE, or equivalent advanced network architecture certification.\n
 * Experience designing networking solutions supporting DoD Impact Levels (IL) 2, 4, 5, and 6, including connectivity and isolation requirements across multiple security boundaries.\n
 * Experience with Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) and DoD Zero Trust implementation strategies.\n
 * Experience with enterprise firewall, SD-WAN, Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), microsegmentation, or cloud network security platforms.\n
 * Experience implementing centralized DNS, IPAM, network observability, flow-log analysis, and network policy management across multiple CSPs.\n
 * Familiarity with Kubernetes and container networking, including ingress/egress architecture, service networking, network policies, and cloud-native load balancing.\n
 * Experience developing multi-cloud network reference architectures and reusable IaC modules that abstract CSP-specific implementations into standardized enterprise patterns.\n
 * Experience supporting large-scale cloud migration, application modernization, or enterprise cloud platform programs within the Department of Defense.\n
