Arista Engineer

We’re looking for a hands-on network engineer to lead data center transformation from Cisco to Arista. The ideal candidate has actually planned, architected, and executed Cisco-to-Arista fabric migrations in production -not just designed on paper. Responsibilities:

• Design and build spine-leaf data center fabrics using Arista EOS and CloudVision Portal (CVP)
• Lead migrations from Cisco-based environments to Arista, including planning, validation, and production cutovers
• Configure and optimize VXLAN, BGP, and EVPN for low-latency, high-availability connectivity
• Automate provisioning and configuration using Python, Ansible, and CVP APIs
• Partner with security, systems, and application teams to align network design with operational requirements
• Mentor junior engineers on Arista best practices

• 10+ years in enterprise/data center networking
• Direct, hands-on experience migrating a Cisco environment to Arista (planning through cutover), not just greenfield Arista deployment
• Strong command of BGP, EVPN, VXLAN, spine-leaf/Clos architectures
• Scripting/automation experience (Python, Ansible)
• Arista certification (ACE or higher) preferred; CCNP or equivalent Cisco background a plus
